Ever just not feel motivated? I don’t mean depressed/lazy, just….not motivated. That’s how the last few months have been. It’s not that I haven’t been cooking (which you can see on my Instagam page), I just haven’t felt like I’ve had anything to say lately. (continue reading)

It’s Sunday morning, which means what I really want to do is make pancakes. I grew up making the classic ‘Joy of Cooking‘ recipe, which will always be one of my favorites. They’re delicious, fluffy, and have never failed me. Then a few years ago, (continue reading)

Is everyone else as confused by the weather lately as I am? The last two days, Boston reached about 70. In February. And now today we’re only maybe hitting 40, and there’s light snow-ish-ness. I’m definitely not complaining about the mini heat wave, but it’s (continue reading)

Don’t you love when something just works? You try something new with no real expectations, and you end up with something fantastic? That’s what these chocolate oat banana muffins were for me. I needed to use up the leftover bananas and wanted to do something (continue reading)

I said in an earlier post that I might be really bad at consistency. Clearly, I’ve been true to my word. I’m often most consistent at BEING inconsistent. Sorry! It’s been two months since I last posted anything, and I apologize for that. I could (continue reading)

My boyfriend and his friends have had a fantasy football league going for at least 10 years now, in some form or another. It’s always the Saturday after the first Thursday game, and the weekend is essentially sacred. I mean seriously, try to even remotely (continue reading)

This won’t be a long post, I’m just too excited by how adorable these are! I keep coming across homemade gummy bears online, and finally decided to try them myself. When I told the bf I wanted to try them, he said there must be (continue reading)

One thing I know very well about myself…I’m usually very lazy, and have trouble finishing things. I swear, most of my knitting projects (because I knit too, as well as sew) sit unfinished and still on the needles for years before they might just maybe (continue reading)

I started this whole thing saying that I was going to share family recipes, and so far the only one I’ve posted was the very first entry. Time to change that with this lemon olive pasta. This has always been one of my favorite dinners, (continue reading)

I can’t believe it’s been almost a month since I last posted something! I apologize for disappearing, I was taking the first real vacation I’ve had in at least five years, if not almost ten years. It made me realize that I need to stop waiting (continue reading)
