Spinach, Tomato, Onion and Parmesan Cheese Omelet. Grapefruit. Miche with Apple Jelly. Fair Trade Coffee. I am a breakfast girl. I always have been and always will be. I will even venture to say that breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. For a person that loves all types of food, that is a [...]
I’m a HUGE fan of breakfast for dinner. Maybe it’s because I would feel lost without eating something sweet in the morning, however; eggs have always seemed like an evening meal to me. Especially after a long day when you want something simple or something light. (Check out my favorite breakfast for dinner meal.) This [...]
I have nothing against chicken. It is quite tasty when made right, and makes a great canvas for many fabulous sauces. On Friday, however; I was responsible for grilling 80 pounds of chicken breast. (I also pan-seared about maybe another 40-50 individual chicken breasts for chicken piccata.) After removing all of the chicken from its [...]
Hoppy Easter! I hope the bunny brought you lot’s of treats! My dad, aka the king of breakfast, out did the Easter Bunny this year with a luscious brunch. Let’s face it, a hearty meal is better than a basket of chocolate. I was treated to his specialties: Waffles and Cappuccino, with a side of [...]
I did something very silly…I traveled without my camera! I know, the horror! Half of my pictures from the past few days are sitting on the floor of my apartment and half of them are on my mom’s camera. So, Good News: I’ve been baking. Bad News: Recipes will be delayed. For now I leave [...]

Weekends are too short. I had such a great time with my parents yesterday learning about wine and eating pasta. I miss them already . Before my mom and dad said farewell, they took me out for a romantic brunch. I like to think that if I had a Valentine, this would be the prefect [...]
I liked the idea of baking something healthy for a change. You know, a recipe that uses oil instead of butter and some form of whole grains. If you like Fig Newtons I think you would enjoy these. I had the good fortune of eating this along side a bowl of Greek yogurt with banana, [...]
Ladies and gentleman, I give you the dessert of champions: Waffle & Wine. 1 Van’s Toaster Waffle (classy, I know), topped with a thin layer of almond butter, Chobani Plain Greek Yogurt, Raspberry Bonne Maman (best raspberry out there!), Dark Chocolate Dreams Peanut Butter and Local Orange Blossom Honey. Hermann J. Wiemer Field Cuvee. I [...]
Peace, Love and Granola.I’m a granola lover. I love it to top off a smoothie, mix into yogurt, garnish my oatmeal and plain by the handful. Over the weekend I decided that it was time to make more granola. I’ve been playing with a few recipes here and there over the past few months, and [...]
