Yes. There are such a thing!!! Breakfast lovers unite! My room mates and I always joke about being the most elaborate breakfast cooks of all the kids at our university. In the morning, we may be bleary-eyed and un-eager to get started with our day, but we never fail to turn out french-press coffee and […]

Christmas Dinner Tradition
I have never been that big of a Christmas fan, I’ll admit. I am more of an enthusiastic Thanksgiving celebrator (try to imagine why!!). Sometimes I think during christmas we tend to focus on what stuff we get from other people, and stress out too much about what we have to buy for them. Thats […]
Artichoke and Kale Frittata
After last saturday’s trip to the farmer’s market, I found myself with a carton of fresh eggs and a huge bunch of kale. I also had a bunch of ricotta cheese leftover from a lasagna I made and had no idea what to do with it. Lo and behold the wonderful world of the internet. […]
Butternut Squash Pecan Scones with a Clementine Glaze
In Costa Rica, pumpkin does not exist, and pumpkin happens to be one of my favorite foods. The day after I returned to Rhode Island in December I decided to go on a pumpkin kick. So of course I visited my local farmer’s market in search of the good stuff. After much searching and no […]

Oh yeah, and I got […]

The Best Wine EVER
For some reason, my dad really values my opinion on wine, even though I am a total newbie when it comes to taste. There are not many wines that I love being a newbie, but Apothic Red had me from the start. First off, you can’t go wrong with the price ($9.99) and second, its […]
A Summer Night with Friends
I wasn’t planning on posting this meal. However, I had been cooking all night for a couple friends at my house and after telling me how good our meal tasted they all demanded it be posted on the blog. Friends enjoying food. This is a cool technique. We simply steamed veggies and chicken on the […]
