A guide to making life a little more fabulous
Happy Fourth of July, y’all! We actually kind of had our holiday dinner yesterday, because Toby had to work both days and Hilary’s husband has to work today.
Sorry I have been a bit MIA! But, luckily for you it was my 30th birthday this weekend, which means tons of food and, of course, strawberry funfetti cupcakes.
I have this awesome cookbook I got when I was in San Antonio a few years ago (I think I may have actually purchased said cookbook at the Alamo), called Los Barrios Family Cookbook.
Last week I read this article in the New York Times about how Americans don’t eat enough vegetables.
The other day, my friend/co-worker Heidi sent me a grilled cheese slide show.
I usually wait a few days before posting things I’ve made (sometimes even longer), but I had to go ahead and show you these cupcakes I brought to work for Halloween.
Remember that apple slide show from Sunset magazine a few weeks ago? Just about everything on it looks good to me, but I made the apple corn muffins first.
Well, the weather outside is frightful.
So, those cupcakes were really cute, but I gave them all away at work.
This smoothie is the reason we don’t have a rug in the living room anymore.
I really like the idea of yogurt parfaits, but it seems like the pre-made ones always have some kind of yucky yogurt and not enough fruit.
“It is impossible to say how first the idea entered my brain; but once conceived, it haunted me day and night.
I started taking ballet when I was 2 years old, and my mom started taking me to see The Nutcracker every year not too long after.
So, here’s the thing: I hate salads.
When I told y’all I was a picky child, you probably thought I meant that I would only eat, like, chicken fingers, macaroni and cheese, Cheerios and PB&J sandwiches, right? Because that’s what a normal picky child eats.
Beans and rice: healthy, cheap, easy, filling… and kinda boring, right? But it doesn’t have to be.
I don’t like sappy romantic comedies.
