Let me start by telling you that I have never in my life liked fresh tomatoes. So why am I posting a recipe extreeemely heavy on tomatoes, you ask? What was I even doing with tomatoes in my house, you ask? Well, my lovely sister-in-law supplies me with tomatoes from time to time, and generally […]
Crispy Lemon Mustard Roasted Chicken
I am on a serious roll with new dinner recipes. *High fives all around!* I love coming up with new recipes, but when they don’t work I pretty quickly get grumpy and get back into a funk of sticking with old stand-bys, giving up on meal planning, and not bothering with risky experimentation. When […]
BBQ Pulled Pork Pasta
We were at Boston Pizza awhile back and Carl ordered some BBQ Bolognese Pulled Pork Pasta. I had a serious case of dinner envy (isn’t that the worst?), since it turned out to be way better than whatever I had ordered, and I kept sneaking bites while saying, “I could totally make this at home.” […]
Fish Tacos with Avocado Mango Salsa
Kristopher is known around here for his loud voice. He is pretty uncomfortable and quiet in public groups, so few people know he is the king of dramatics, both of excitement and distress, and the only “quiet” volume he possesses is a loud whisper when I absolutely insist he stops yelling about WANTING JUICE. We’ve […]
Barbecued New Potato Skewers
Last week I bought a sports bra that literally cost more than any single item in my closet. Aside from the fact that this may indicate a need for purchasing higher quality clothes, it was Worth. Every. Penny. (With the phasing out of the penny in Canada, can I still say that? Or is is […]
Mother’s Day Party Plan {Cookbook Review}
So this is something new to me – the triple slow cooker! When I received the book “Triple Slow Cooker Entertaining” for review, I thought triple slow cooker party planning just meant I was borrowing slow cookers from my mother-in-law and sister. I had no idea they actually made single slow cookers with three crockpots! […]
FASHION FRIDAY: The Little Red Blazer
So excited to welcome my sister Erin back for her monthly fashion feature! I seriously just want to go to my closet and start trying random things on together. This is a great one, guys. Remember, you can follow Erin’s finds on Facebook, or purchase some of them from her Etsy shop, The Laughing Chickadee. […]
Caramelized Bacon
I am aware that what I am showing you today looks a lot like the dog’s breakfast. However, I can assure you with reasonable (if untested) certainty that caramelized bacon tastes absolutely nothing like the dog’s breakfast. Although, if you gave this to your dog for breakfast, I imagine you would be slathered in adoring […]
Monday Moments
Daddies are the best, aren’t they? I mean, obviously, mommies are THE best, but daddies are just the best. This is what happens while I do dishes, and I love listening to the happy sounds coming from the other room. And this is what happens when all the toys are successfully put away and everyone’s […]
Nick’s Seafood Stromboli
So you know how Chelsea used to post pretty often on this here blog? (She’s a busy lady these days, but I’m convinced we’ll see her back one day :)). And then my sister Sarah shared her amazing photography skills for a few delicious posts, and even her bun recipe for one post. And then my sister […]
