If you’re not from Syracuse, you’re wondering if I made you cornbread in the shape of a dinosaur. Like the dinosaur chicken nuggets from elementary school! Because everything tastes better when it’s in a bizarre shape, right?! No. Just a copycat Dinosaur BBQ cornbread recipe that I was given by my home cook idol/second mother,…

beer battered onion rings
Last week Kelly, Aaron and I did a 3 day cleanse. It’s one I did before Thanksgiving last year, and I actually like it. Aaron lost 9 pounds even after completely cheating the last day and eating a reuben and a flatbread pizza for dinner. For reference, we were supposed to be eating green beans….
spicy pickled carrots
How are your shoveling muscles feeling? Mine are a little sore. That may also be attributed to Body Pump, though. I taught yesterday at noon to a room of 60 people. No one has been working this week in Baltimore. Except for the front desk staff at the gym, I guess. This big muscle head…
croque madame, but not really
Something exciting went down this week! I finally filmed my Body Attack video to finish my certification! You thought I was giving you a link to the video, didn’t you? Chyea right. Embarrassing. Basically I had to film myself teaching an entire class to at least five people. I asked all of my coworkers to come and…
sriracha honey baked chicken wings
I just spent my 3rd weekend in Rochester. This was weird given that I’ve lived here since June. I’ve been escaping to camp, or Baltimore, or home all summer. I subbed a Body Pump class on Saturday- that’s right, finally found a job teaching! I legitimately stalked the group fitness director at a gym like…

I have a pretty huge test tomorrow so naturally I’m making dinner, blogging, and watching Parenthood. It’s the exam that I need to pass to eventually have a license to be an audiologist, which is pretty crucial given the 8 years of school I will have put into it. My understanding is that it’s 120…
three bean salsa
I somehow made this way more complicated than it needed to be. I was planning to whip up this salsa/salad concoction one night last week for dinner, but when I got home from Wegmans I realized that I don’t have a can opener. This is one of the downfalls of living alone- all those little…
ultimate egg salad
I’ve been struggling with blogging lately. Apparently so has Sheila..? When I was living in Baltimore I would make things that served 4 or 6, send leftovers with the GS and have it 1 or 2 days myself. Now, it’ s just me. No friends or boyfriends or classmates to pawn food off on. So…
zucchini fritters
So many big things happened this week! I gave my last presentation and handed in my last paper EVER. I finished another t-shirt quilt for a friend, this one is all Loyola themed so obviously I’m obsessed. I met my research mentor’s new baby, Charlotte Rose, and she’s so adorable. I got my white coat!…
portuguese sweet bread
Another installment of Easter food that is coming at you about 349 days too early. An Easter tradition in our family used to be wearing coordinated outfits lovingly made by my mom. Yes I actually was one of the ugliest children in the world. The GS informed me that one of the Easter traditions in…
