It’s been a while since I’ve done a What I Ate Wednesday post so I thought I would write one for today and include a look at what a typical week day looks like for me. 6:30 AM: Alarm goes off, snooze until 7 AM (sometimes longer) 7:00 AM: Read email, the Skimm, and check…
Five on Friday
Happy Friday! For today’s Friday Five I am featuring some of my recent eats. Let’s just jump right in shall we? ONE | Last week I decided to give zucchini boats a try. I made a pizza version with tomato sauce and mozzarella and they were so good and super easy! Definitely will be making these again. TWO…
Kentucky Derby Recipes
This Saturday is the 141st running of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs. I love watching the race each year and learning the history of the horses and their trainers and jockeys. I also especially love seeing all of the attire and fancy Derby hats of those in attendance. Going to the Derby is definitely…
Lemony Goat Cheese and Brussels Sprouts Pasta
When it comes to weekly meal planning, I almost always make some kind of pasta dish one night of the week. It’s usually a quick dinner to make and always satisfying. A couple of weeks ago I was inspired by one of our recent Blue Apron meals and created this Lemony Goat Cheese and Brussels…
Five on Friday
Happy Friday! I don’t know about you, but this week went by really fast and I am definitely not complaining! This weekend we have nothing going on which is actually a good thing because our condo desperately needs to be cleaned. It’s been far too long since I’ve paid attention to our floors and baseboards. …
Easter Lunch Recipes
Can you believe it is already Easter this weekend? Easter is one of my favorite holidays because of the significance it has for Christ followers. If Jesus had not died and risen again, there would be no basis for the Christian faith. I love going to church on Easter and celebrating the new life we…
Strawberry Caprese Salad
With the impending arrival of spring, my tastebuds have moved on from hearty soups and stews to lighter fare like fresh salads. One of my favorite spring/summer dishes is a Caprese salad. Traditionally this salad is made from tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella. This version I created replaces the tomatoes with strawberries which is a fun, fruity…
Five on Friday
Happy Friday! And happy first day of spring!! I saw the first signs of spring sprouting from the ground on my street this week and I can’t wait until all of the tulips are in bloom on the Mag Mile. We have plans to go see the new Divergent Series movie this weekend and I am…
Restaurant Style Salsa
If I had to pick one snack food to live on the rest of my life, chips and salsa just might be it for me! Kevin is also a lover of chips and salsa and between the two of us, we eat a ridiculous amount in our house. Sometimes we will buy store bought salsa…
St. Patrick’s Day Treats
In Chicago, St. Patrick’s Day is a huge deal. We dye our river bright green, have a big South Side Irish Parade, and you can guarantee every single Irish pub (every bar for that matter) will be full of people with green beer in hand. The weekend before St. Patrick’s Day is pretty much crazy…
