On September 11, Rosh Hashanah began. It’s the Jewish New Year and a day of celebrating. 10 days later, there is another holiday called Yom Kippur. During those 10 days between Rosh Hashanah & Yom Kippur, you’re supposed to ask anyone you’ve wronged in the past year for forgiveness. The period of forgiveness culminates on […]
Over the weekend, I was looking for some new chicken recipes. Chicken can get from boring and monotonous, so I’m constantly looking for ways to change it up. I have heard about about marry-me chicken recipes for years, but never actually made one. I happened to have all the ingredients on hand for this original […]
Hi friends! Hope you’re enjoying the weekend! Like I promised yesterday, I have a fun recipe to share with you all – it was originally shared on the Publix website (I know, I didn’t know they shared recipes either!) and when I saw it, I new I had to make it. It’s a round pull-apart […]
Classic Sweet Honey Cake – a sweet, pound-cake-esq cake usually made for the Jewish New Year, aka Rosh Hashanah. Rosh Hashanah just began and lasts 2-days. We lucked out this year because it fell on a weekend, so we are able to spend some more time making some tasty traditional treats. These are some of […]
Rosh Hashanah is coming! It’s the Jewish New Year, which means it’s a day of celebrating with friends and family eating sweet things to kick-start a sweet new year! The day is usually spent eating lots of apples and honey in any combination with friends and family. Since our family is far, we’ll be eating […]
About a month ago, Trevor and I, along with the girls, were back in England visiting family. While we were there, we went to one of our favorite restaurants, Storia. This restaurant is outside of London in a very small town, but we absolutely love it there and go every time we visit! We were […]
ALMOST Classic 30-Minute Chicken Carbonara – what do I mean by almost? Well, traditional carbonara uses hard cheese, eggs, salt, pepper and bacon, but not turkey bacon. Almost all the traditional ingredients are there, but I don’t eat pork (or red meat!), so I made an ever so slight change to Ree Drummond’s original recipe […]
Good morning! I have a new chocolate chip cookie to share with you and you know how much I love a good chocolate chip cookie! But, if you are looking for an easy, drop-and-bake chocolate chip cookie recipe, this is not it! I have plenty of options for those here. But, if you’re looking to […]
We made it to Friday! I am so unbelievably excited! We don’t have anything earth-shattering planned, which is why I’m so happy. I love a good, quiet weekend at home and I’m sure we’ll even come up with some yummy foods to make. Any thoughts on what we should make?! I’m always looking for an […]
Happy Thursday! It’s nearly the weekend and I can’t wait! These first few weeks of my kids being back at school and swim practice everyday are so exhausting. Anyone else?! Well, yesterday, I realized at lunchtime that I had to bring dinner with me for the girls because they wouldn’t have time to come home […]
