It really is a shame that when I have browning bananas, my first instinct is to make cupcakes with them instead of a healthy smoothie. This, my friends, is why I struggle with my weight. But then...
I have to say I’m really enjoying our Spring in Philadelphia lately. Normally, Spring lasts all of 3 days before it either gets cold again or boiling hot. But we’ve had so many crystal clear blue...
I keep forgetting how much I like horseradish. It’s one of those things that I eat and think Why haven’t I been eating this on my turkey sandwiches my whole life? But then I’ll go and have another...
I think I might have found the perfect meal. For someone who didn’t eat much Asian food as a kid, I have identified Asian flavors as being my favorite thing to make and eat. When I have nothing...
Something must be going wrong in the universe because I’ve been craving salad. As in green leafy vegetables with other vegetables with a light dressing. When, why and how did this happen? I don’t...
I haven’t really been cooking as much as I want to, let alone doing much baking. There are so many things to do, so many things I’m interested in, so many ideas, and so many plans on my mind. It...
Here I go again – trying to eat better. I go in waves with food. I’ll eat really well for a week or two but then as soon as I get something not-so-good for me, all I crave is bad food. I guess...
I like cheese but for the most part, I could take it or leave it. This comment generally surprises anyone I tell this to who usually comes right back and says “I love cheese!” like I have something...
Didn’t someone once say that casseroles are boring? I guess casseroles used to primarily consist of some kind of leftover meat, mixed vegetables, maybe a pasta, rice or potato and some kind of...
I’m back! Well, I’ve been back for over a week and had sooooo much fun in Vegas that I needed many days to recover. Well, not really, but I did need some time to recover but the other days away...
As I write this I’m staring at my big orange suitcase, affectionately known as The Pumpkin, which is 99% packed for my annual girls trip to Vegas. It can’t come fast enough. By this time tomorrow...
As I mentioned the other day, I’m a big breakfast fan and will eat it for any meal. Eggs are one of my favorite foods to make but I’m usually either a simple fried egg or scrambled egg girl (I’ve...
I’m so so sorry I’ve been slacking on the posts lately. I can’t really explain why other than my brain has been focused on so many other things lately – work, travel, fashion, reading, home decor...
Have you had one of those weekends where you either have too much to do or don’t feel well enough to do anything at all? That was me this weekend. After taking Friday off and laying in bed all day...
Did anyone watch the Oscars last night? Of course Bradley Cooper looked gorgeous, the dresses were stunning and Adele’s beauty and voice were flawless. A while ago I thought about making some...
For the second weekend in a row, I’ve gotten completely sucked into the 80′s miniseries North and South staring Patrick Swayze. Last week was North and South Book 1 and yesterday was North and...
I went to a friend’s for dinner last night and left around 9:40 so I could make it home in time to catch the latest episode of Chicago Fire only to find snow on my car so thick and heavy, my...
Today is my friend Jodi’s birthday and last night she came over to my house for some pasta, wine and Grammys. I surprised her with these Celebration Cupcakes (even though we are both trying to eat...
Sometimes I come across a recipe that has me lingering a few seconds longer than the others but yet for whatever reason, I pass it by. This recipe for Beer-Glazed Sausage and Apples is a perfect...
I have to admit, I’m not the biggest sandwich person. Aside from the occasional Wawa junior hoagie, I don’t desire a sandwich very often. At lunchtime, I usually get so cold in my office that I...
It’s been frigid in the Philadelphia area the last several days and on Friday we got a blanket of snow to boot. Since we can’t survive off of mug after mug of hot cocoa, why not make a big pot of...
It’s January so that typically means that we have all made some resolutions which as this point we are still sticking to or already caved on already days ago. I made a deal with myself (again) to...
Sometimes I think I could just change this blog to “A Fork In Each Tart”. Every time I make a tart, I devour it. I think I could eat them every single day. And there are so many different ways to...
Every once in a while I end up making a recipe that is so simple and classic that I wonder why in the world I haven’t attempted to do this before? This Quick Chicken Noodle Soup is perfect in its...
You know when you want to make a dish for a get-together and you don’t really have much time to get something made? That’s when I turn to dips. Whether you want a cold dip or a hot dip, they...
Growing up, I always heard that you should eat ham and beans for New’s Years Day because it meant good luck. But I don’t eat ham (well, maybe I do, that’s a story for another day) so I’m relying on...
Well, here we are on New Year’s Eve…again. How does one year go by so fast? For that matter, how does a decade or two decades go by so fast? It was 22 years ago today that I lost my mom and it’s...
Of all the goodies I made for Christmas, these Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites were by far everyone’s favorite little nuggets that they couldn’t stop oooing and ahhing about. Everyone loves a...
A bar cookie with chocolate and toffee? Hmm…okay! I got this recipe for Chewy Chocolate Almond Bars when I ended up scooping up a bag of Heath English Milk Chocolate Toffee Bits in my baking aisle...
Like Red Velvet cake and want to make a super simple – and festive – cookie this weekend? Try these Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies. With only five ingredients, you can’t get much simpler than this....
