Boyfriend in the Kitchen

Good evening! Monday’s are pretty rough, but at least it’s behind us now, right? You may have noticed (or not?) that I haven’t been posting recipes on the ole blog lately, or as often as I used to. This is because I was getting into a bit of a cooking rut, and I wasn’t about [...]

Health Goals…and Pizza?

As I’ve mentioned, there’s been quite a bit of “non-Hallie-like” meals that have left me feeling a bit…blah. But, I’ve realized that there is always something going on—there will always be a birthday or a barbecue or a staff party in which yummy treats/booze will be served, so I’ll never have an “ideal time to [...]

Quitter, Quitter, Chicken Dinner

Ever since I had that sage fried chicken, I’ve been obsessed with combining sage and chicken again, but a much healthier version. So of course, when I went to the store, they were all out of sage. All they had was a “poultry mix” of herbs, so I picked it up. The mix of rosemary, [...]

A Few Days in the Life

Happy Easter and/or Happy Sunday! A few hours ago, there was an earthquake in Baja California (Mexico) that we totally felt! I’ve been in earthquakes before but I think this was the biggest and longest yet (TWSS). It was crazy because at first we thought it was just our upstairs neighbors moving around, but then [...]

100% Homemade Chicken Soup via Crock Pot

Who makes soup when the weather is really warm and lovely out? Oh, I do. But we knew that. This time I did something new though…I made the stock! But, first, backing up… Over the weekend, we went to a small Passover Seder (yes, I know, we’re early. We don’t like to conform) and as [...]

Have Twitter, will Roast Chicken

UGH I had this whole post written and then Windows Live Writer gave out on me. Serves me right for not saving often enough! Tonight, I was going to pick up a rotisserie chicken for dinner, but when I got to the store, they were all out. Not wanting to drive to another store (what [...]

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 [...]

Life in List Form

Hey! Remember me? I’m Hallie and I have a blog It’s finals time for Mitch which means editing time for Hallie. I love editing and proofreading, actually, so I don’t mind at all. But it means less time for blogging! (Side note, for you students out there, if you’re looking for reference info at the [...]

Blogging about Blogging

I was so proud of myself this weekend. I planned out the week’s dinners (well, through Thursday), shopped for the ingredients, made my workout schedule, etc. I felt so organized. But then last night, Mitch suggested that instead of me taking Nina for her walk in the morning, I should take her after work instead [...]

I am SO Resourceful

Did everyone see my post on Health Blog Helper about Twitter? I had so much fun writing it…that’s how big of a nerd I am for Twitter. I was really thankful to Matt for giving me the opportunity to share what I’ve learned in my professional and personal use of Twitter over the past 10 [...]
