I love lunch time, its my opportunity to get a little creative and cook whatever I want. Dinners are restricted by Bill’s dislikes (seafood, spinach, mushrooms, artichoke hearts, asparagus, squash, sweet potatoes, basically all my favorite things). He always says I’m welcome to cook whatever I like, which is very sweet, but I really enjoy…

In the years after college I and whatever roommate I had at the time would throw a misfit thanksgiving. Anyone who didn’t have family in the area, or a place to go was invited over to eat with us and bring whatever traditional dish they have at their family thanksgiving. It was always a crazy…

I love parties. They’re a ton of work and afterwards I’m always insanely exhausted, but I love them. My awesome husband turned 27 yesterday and that was a good reason for a party. We decided back in August…maybe July…that it should most definitely be a costume party. I’m a huge fan of The Tom Kat…

To be completely honest and horribly truthful I really enjoy fast food, but I am a fast food snob. I really only enjoy Jack in the Box, Chick-Fil-A, and Taco Cabana. I also am a fan of Taco Bell, less snobby, more thrifty, still you can’t beat their cheesy bean and rice burritos. Your typical…
