Once upon a time I had big plans for Memorial Day weekend. You know, one of the few 3-day weekends I get a year. Alas, instead of the gardening, shopping, cleaning, and laying out in the sun-ing I had planned, I got food poisoning instead. All I have to say is stay away from bad salmon...yikes. Really, stay away. You don't want none of that. Anyway, thanks for all of your kind words on Twitter yesterday! I'm feeling almost 100% now and am planning on being back ... continue reading...
Bacon Maple Biscuits
Today is one of those days. One of those days where I didn't have anything made to share. Where I rushed around the house this morning and just decided to show you my new favorite breakfast recipe. Where I have T-minus 10 minutes to shower and get out the door. Oops. So, that being said, let me share with you my breakfast today. And please forgive the brevity, but I don't think anyone should have to go without bacon on a Friday. And you know I love you, so I share ... continue reading...
Saucy Mama Winner!
I think that picking winners in my giveaways is one of my favorite things. I sit in anticipation as the random integer creator thingy does it's thing and hold my breathe as I scroll through the comments to find out who won. And I'm always, always jealous of the winner. Because I like to win too. So without further ado, the winner of the Saucy Mama giveaway is.... Krista, congratulations! Just email me your address and daytime phone number to heathersdish [at] gmail [dot] com and I'll get ... continue reading...
Cilantro Lime Chickpea Salad
When Nate and I met for the first time I smelled like a burrito. Although I'm not proud to admit it, I will say it was because I was dragged to a party with one of my best friends after working an open-to-close shift at a local burrito restaurant in college. I was tired. I was cranky. I was very very smelly. And I met the man of my dreams and he stuck around. Dreams do come true! One of the things that I learned to love while working at Cilantro's Burrito Grill was to enjoy ... continue reading...
It’s All Because of You
About 2 weeks ago beautiful Faces of Beauty reader Melissa left a comment saying she was glad to find out about the blog from All You Magazine. Immediately I was intrigued and found out that Faces of Beauty is part of a feature about women who have learned to love themselves just as they are! I have to say, the second I found the magazine on the shelves at WalMart I had tears in my eyes and was completely shaking. Not the cool kind of shaky where maybe there's a slight hint of quiver and a ... continue reading...
Browned Butter Brown Sugar Cookies with Lemon Buttercream
Have you ever browned butter before? Lord help me, I just might burn my tongue trying to lick the pan the next time I brown butter. That nutty, buttery (duh), rich aroma is only slightly indicative of the massive amount of nutty, buttery, richness that will befall your tastebuds and I almost can't stand it. I'm afraid that if Nate hadn't have been standing right next to me I would be typing this with gauze taped to my tongue. Hey, anything could happen. But what if - just what if - ... continue reading...
These Guys
Oh these pups. They're going stir-crazy these days with the rain causing them to miss their favorite yet oh-so-muddy dog park. It's almost worth the muddy paws, filthy carpet, and having to lug 100 lb Bunker up the stairs for a bath. Almost. ... continue reading...
Sweet Summer Corn Risotto
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet summer corn (bada badaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa), good times never seem so good (so good, so good)! Oops, wrong words. My bad. So now that I've gotten "Sweet Caroline" stuck in your head for the remainder of the day (you're welcome), let's talk about corn. Sweet summer corn. Just doesn't get any better than that! Back when I was growing up and had braces for the better part of my childhood (read: 6 years) I could never really enjoy corn on the cob the way that others ... continue reading...
Worth Watching
One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it's worth watching! ... continue reading...
5-Ingredient Pacific Rim Wontons
The more I write this blog the more I see that I have the most irrational fears. This week's unveiled fear is wonton wrappers. Terrified of them. Scared to death. Oh, and lazy. Don't forget to throw that little gem in there. I suppose more than anything it's the fear of failure that gets me all in a tizzy over things like wonton wrappers, making my own ladyfingers and the like. No one likes to fail, and I certainly don't like to lose. Ever. Never ever. It's kind of ... continue reading...
Peanut Butter White Chocolate Stuffed French Toast
It's simple really. I've now discovered that, thanks to my tall handsome husband, I am addicted to French toast. It's true. And as surely as Bunker is drooling over the peanut butter jar in the picture above I am now dreaming up roughly 2,000 different French toast stuffings in my brain as I write. This has got to be a gift from God, this stuffed French toast thing. And the best part? The best part is there's really no "recipe" per se; you get the basic custard down and then use whatever ... continue reading...
Confessions of a Life Blogger Part III
I only like marshmallows when they're roasted, which I did almost every night over our electric stove in college. Almond butter is only good with baby carrots. [source] I love Selena. Always have, always will. Once upon a time I just knew that I was going to be a gymnast. And I just knew that I was going to the Olympics, even though I only knew how to tumble. And then I grew 6 inches. One day I will live on Maui. One day. ... continue reading...
