I wanted to play around with my usual recipe, which I get from the ultimate cooking bible… Seriously, this cookbook is one of my favorites.

Frittata Fun
Tonight, I just wanted to make something quick and use up a few things in the fridge so they wouldn’t go bad. I love making frittatas, because you can add whatever you like in them. I cooked a pound of bacon in my cast iron skillet, added a container of mushrooms in the bacon fat,…
Panini love
Tonight I am hanging out with my family at the hospital. My husband brought some take-out from Figo, an Italian place that has antipasti (they have these amazing aranchini, rice balls), homemade pastas, salads, and paninis. Everything I have gotten there has been yummy, but I’ve never had one of their paninis. I chose the…

My girls LOVE runny eggs, sunny-side up is their favorite. So when I was trying to sell the leftover Chinese food we had in the fridge, I knew I had to top it with these beautiful eggs. B is an egg drop soup fanatic, so when I topped her beloved soup with an extra egg,…

My first post
Hey all! This is my first official post, and I am super excited! I actually have been thinking about creating a blog for quite sometime, but I wasn’t really sure how to go about it or what I wanted to write. I decided to look at myself and my life and search for a topic that I can have…
