Pumpkin Chocolate-Chip Blondies with Side Notes

Hellooo! How is everyone’s week going so far? Mine’s going…ok, I guess. Work is busy which is always nice, and I worked on a freelance project last night that was looming over my head so it was nice to get things done. Side note 1: check out my new blog header! I’ll link to the [...]

Valentine’s Day Hike Recap and a Vegan Recipe

Hello! How was everyone’s weekend? I had yesterday off for President’s Day so today felt like a Monday, and not a normal one at that, since I was in an all-day seminar all about mobile media that was way over my head. And tomorrow at work we’re doing a press conference in the morning, which [...]

Easy Appetizer: Just Add Puff Pastry!

Well, another football season has come and gone (I know, most of you are devastated). On Sunday we had 18 people over to watch the big game, which was a tight squeeze given our small condo, but we made it work. I think a good time was had by all, and as usual we had [...]

Rah Rah for Raw Kale and Running

Good evening! Have you entered my “blog birthday” giveaway yet? There aren’t that many entries, so your chances are pretty good! (Don’t call it a “blogiversary.” I don’t know what but I’m not a fan of the term. I think the two ladies who I share my CSA goodies with are sick of kale, because [...]

Frittata for the Grinch

Hello out there! I’ve got to get to bed because I have a date with my puppy and some hills in the morning. (Love my walking partner!) But I wanted to first of all say thank you for your well wishes and tips for my Boston trip. I still can’t believe I won and I’m [...]

Crock-Pot Mulligatawny Soup

Super-cool news at the bottom of this post!! Well, cool for me, anyway. I had big plans to do lots of Christmas shopping today. Go ahead….ask me how much I got done. I did buy 1 1/2 presents online…so that’s something, right? I was really lazy today, and honestly,  it was nice. Except for the [...]

Na-MOO-Ste Contest Entry: Spicy Cornbread

Did everyone have a nice Thanksgiving? Mine was just lovely. I didn’t take any photos because well, I was teased enough for making a pie that had tofu in it (or rather, that I was trying to keep it a secret. Grrr!). But suffice it to say the evening was a success, and we only [...]

Gringa Tacos and “Purple” Yams

I wasn’t going to post tonight’s dinner because I wasn’t sure how good it would taste. We all know I love my Mexican food—in fact, I went “off-campus” for lunch today to a local Mexican joint and had some yummy grilled fish tacos. Well, before I knew what I was doing for lunch I had [...]

Housewarning Apple Crisp

Happy Monday! Ok, I lie. Mondays suck. At least this one is over. The next 5 weeks are going to be crazy for me…I just need to make it through unscathed and I will be a happy camper. I had a few people ask me about the program I mentioned in my last post. If [...]

Sleepy and Simple Sandwich Sunday

The upside of being a football widow (ok I’m not married but you get the idea)? I can do all the blogging (and watching trashy TV and ok, cleaning) that I want to with my “free” days. So far today I’ve ran 3 miles (one week of “official” 10k training in the bag), gone to [...]
