A lot goes on behind the scenes of a blog, which is really just a window into someone’s life…or however much of it they wish for you to see. Sometimes I feel like grabbing a megaphone and shouting from the rooftops about all that’s going on in my life. I want everyone to know what […]

Cheat days. These words have haunted me for far too long. About eleven years now, if you’re counting. I used to think that every day had to be a regimented, strict eating day and then only on the chosen day (or days in my case), could I indulge my true cravings. I would wait diligently

I know what you’re thinking. Where are the guilty desserts, the luscious cream filled cakes covered in gooey frosting? Where are the guilt inducing sauced up meat filled dishes of yore?

I realized today that I have been so busy putting together our holiday eBook that I have yet to tell you about our stupendous trip to Santa Monica to attend the International Food Bloggers Conference, and also to take a little break from the kids. Did I mention how stressed out I’ve been lately?

Heading into the depths of winter and the end of daylight saving time is my most loathed part of the year and also my most loved. How can that be you ask? I love the holidays. From the minute the clock strikes midnight on November 1st, as I head to bed with a sure-to-be
