Soup, Salad, and Breadsticks

Pin itWhen I was younger my family rarely went out to eat. I remember as a teen a trip to Olive Garden was such a treat. Oh how times have changed. Over the past several years I have been spoiled by some fantastic restaurant meals and Olive Garden has been knocked down a few notched….at…

A little late, but here goes

Pin itIn celebration of our 2 year anniversary yesterday (we got married August 30, 2008) I decided to post some of me and B’s wedding photos. It’s been a great 2 years and I am looking forward to may more.               

RuSan’s

Pin itThe days have really gotten away from me. Job hunting and adding yoga to my usual schedule had kind of infringed on my blogging time, that and the fact that I really haven’t wanted to look at a computer once I leave the office. Even though my schedule has gotten tight, and blogging has…

Foodbuzz Tastemaker: Kellogg’s Fiber Plus Cereal

Pin itRecently I was offered the opportunity to try a couple of Kellogg’s Fiber Plus cereal thanks to Kellogg’s and the Foodbuzz tastemaker’s program. I was sent the Berry Yogurt Crunch and Cinnamon Oat Crunch flavors to try. Hmm…. In only have the nutritional stats on the Berry Yogurt Crunch and the ingredient list on…

Fried chicken and tater tots

Pin itOn Saturday I continued my coupon-loving, penny-pinching ways. When I was hungry for breakfast on Saturday morning I was excited to whip out a coupon for a free bagel from Bruegger’s. B and I split a sun dried tomato bagel with jalapeno cream cheese, which was just enough to hold us over through our…

Icehouse South End

Pin itLook at what I found in the depths of my drafts folder! I never realized that this post never published. I guess this is one of those better late than never situations! Icehouse South End opened right about the time B and I moved to the Dilworth area. We had been before, when it…

Friday Flight

Pin itI heart Fridays….most Fridays, at least. This past Friday was a particularly heart-able day. The evening started off with a tweet up at Dilworth Billiards and then ended with a relaxing outdoor dinner with B. Although moving can be a stressful and expensive experience there is an upside, in addition to loving your new…

Luna’s Living Kitchen

Pin it I always love to share meals with my blogger and foodies friends, because I usually get to try something new and interesting as well as make new friends. Last Wednesday was one of those fun occasions where I got to broaden my food, and friend,  horizons. On the menu for the evening was…

Cedarlane Enchiladas

Pin itEating healthy is easy, if you are prepared. Unfortunately, I have not had motivation to take the extra effort to do a lot of prep work which was resulting in me reaching for a lot of not so healthy convenience foods. I don’t love eating frozen meals for lunch, but I also don’t love…

Un-fried squash

Pin it Last week I decided to borrow some inspiration from Emily. My landlord dropped off a big bag of garden fresh goodies including squash, peppers, and tomatoes. Even though, growing up, I have never been a fan of fried squash I all of a sudden got the urge to make some. Except, I wanted…
