Sometimes, I think I’m almost predictable to a fault. I know what I like. I know my routine and I like to stick to it. Call me boring, but it’s what works for me. So it should surprise no one that the first cold weekend I was ready to make soup. Soup with squashes. A [...]

This whole week I’ve been in a major funk. I started off the week with a major migraine/24 hour bug, and well, I’ll admit it, I’ve just been in a pretty bad mood ever since. Maybe it’s because I’m tapering for my half marathon on Sunday, and going from 25 miles last week to a [...]

Around here, the second key element of successful snow food is something hot and filling. I’m a big soup lover all the time, and I knew I wanted some last Wednesday while I was waiting for the snow to come down. But sadly, I was fairly limited in the soup fixins I had in the [...]

After I came down from my 5K high last week, I needed a break. So I won’t lie, I took a nap. Yeah, I know you’re not supposed to need a nap after a 5K, but I’m a girl that likes to sleep! And then I woke up. And I was STARVING. I knew we [...]

Those radio folks [...]

One of the things I like best about food blogging is that it encourages me to try new things. I’ve always loved to cook, but I may not have always been the most adventuresome cook recipe-wise. I tended to find something that worked and then make it over and over and over again until Noel [...]

So, is it cold enough out there for you? If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, chances are your answer to that question is yes! Because here we are, a week and a half into the year, and it’s freezing! Literally. I’m not sure we’ve really made it above freezing so far this year. Our [...]

Noel and I have a running disagreement about winter squash. I love it. I think its gentle sweetness is comforting as the days get cooler, and it hits my need to satisfy my sweet tooth without added sugar. Noel, on the other hand, does not enjoy the sweet. He prefers his vegetables savory, and his [...]
