Yesterday was Kelly and Aaron’s 1 year wedding anniversary! After much careful observation while living with them over the past year, I’ve concluded that they are ready to live alone. Just the two of them, with no tenant. So I’m moving out! It will be a big step for their marriage to lose me, but I’m…

how to use grilled veggies 3 ways
High of 99 today folks! Doesn’t that make you want to go fire up your grill? LOL no. But timing these blog posts has never been a strength so I’ll fill you in anyway. This weekend the GS and I invited ourselves over to our friends’ house. They’re getting married this weekend! So we wanted…
zucchini lasagna
Holy moly I’ve let this get away from me. Work has been INSANE and therefore I haven’t been cooking anything new. Going to all my old standby recipes, or eating cereal for dinner. Shit happens. Over the 4th we went to Rhode Island to get some R&R and hang with the GS’ family. I always…
cauliflower & orzo salad
On Sunday night all my dreams came true when I got an email from the Onondaga Free Library telling me that Chrissy Teigen’s cookbook Cravings was available for my Kindle. I read the book in its entirety on Sunday night, but I had to wait to finally make something because I’ve been on the road all week….
kale caesar
Don’t hate me for the most basic of all basic posts. I mean that in both ways, as in “I’m giving you directions for assembling a salad” and also the 2016 vernacular “this is soooo #basic.” I made these a few weeks ago for dinner, with the promise to myself that if I was going…
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…
zoodle carbonara
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention my sadness over Alan Rickman’s passing last week. While I of course feel that the Harry Potter movies never did justice to the books, I’ve always loved Alan Rickman. He loved the books in real life and had such respect for JK Rowling, and I thought he…
broccoli & cauliflower soup
As promised, SOUP. Golden Globes Sunday is a holiday in my book, so I wanted to make a great dinner. And by dinner, I mean the meal I eat at 4PM when the Red Carpet pre-show starts. I intentionally did not call this “broccoli cheddar soup,” because while there is some cheese in it, the…
slow cooker cioppino
This weekend I went to my first Ravens game ever! Which is kind of surprising given that I’ve lived in Baltimore for the better part of eight years. Aaron had four tickets so he invited the GS and I to go. We had amazing seats, but I still kept finding myself watching the Jumbo-tron even though…
rainbow chard w/ lentils & sweet potato
Have you guys bought Adele’s new album yet?! I literally bought it the morning it came out. Before I even got out of bed. I love her. Then I went home for Thanksgiving and insisted we listen to it on repeat. Sorry, Dad’s 70s Pandora station. It is vital that we learn all the lyrics to…
