Chocolate chip cookie dough

I found one of the new-ish Larabar flavors. Yes I did. Not many of the stores where I shop regularly (aka TJ’s, Harris Teeter, Bloom, and Target) carry a wide variety of Larabars. Normally all I can find is cashew cookie or peanut butter cookie which are flavors that I found to be salty and…

evol burritos

I may have mentioned it a time or two that over past weeks I have really been slacking on my lunch packing. B and I have gotten really good at cooking for two and we rarely have leftovers, leaving me searching for lunch ideas. My lack of creativity and motivation has left me resorting to…

Thermos Review

Several weeks ago I received an offer that I could not refuse. Thermos Brand was having a Twitter party on cold hydration and offered to send me one of their bottles to review. Since reusable bottles are an essential in my house, CamelBak bottles being my favorite, I jumped on the offer to give their…

Several weeks ago I had the most amazing package delivered to my doorstep.  Garlic Gold had seen their product listed in my OpenSky shop and offered to send me sample, and, of course, I jumped all over the opportunity! I was astonished at how many amazing items that I kept pulling out of the box….

I blame my husband

I blame my husband for me being such a foodie. The first time he cooked for me he made eggplant parmesan with lump crab topping. Over the past few years he has challenged me to try foods that I would have otherwise turned away from. I haven’t liked them all, but he has had more…

Bertolli Arrabbiata, Red Onion, and Mushroom Pizza

I heart Saturday’s. Especially a Saturday like today that is so beautiful and sunny, even if it was a bit chilly out. I didn’t get to bed until 12:30 last night so I had every intention of sleeping in this morning. The sun had different ideas because it was shining through our bedroom window nudging…

Silk PureAlmond Review

Tonight is a quiet night at home because B is out with the guys. I had hoped to do some writing but The Real Housewives of Orange County reruns completely sucked me in. There has definitely been some undocumented snacking this afternoon too. There were just a couple of occasions that I didn’t feel like…
