This weekend = amazing. A perfectly unplugged three-days with my brothers and Neil’s parents at the annual Roots N Blues N BBQ Festival. I can’t believe this was our fourth year attending! I think that’s long enough to call this a tradition right? This year, we challenged ourselves by signing up for the festival 10k [...]

It’s really starting to feel like fall this week. The crisp air feels so good after this summer’s wrath. Neil picked up mums from the hardware store for me to plant, and I am ready to welcome fleece jackets, jeans and slippers at night back into my life. And most of all, I’m excited for [...]

We’re fortunate to come to a point every summer, sometimes more than once, when we have too many tomatoes to consume in a reasonably short amount of time. It’s a little sad, because we love them fresh, but you can only eat so many, and we refuse to let them go to waste.  So we [...]

Can you believe it’s almost Labor Day!? We are so ready for fall. Cooler temperatures, warmer meals, tailgating, pumpkin and cider. I’ve been craving pumpkin beer for about a week, so I’m trying to clean out (read: drink) my summer ale collection before this weekend. I know that’s just silliness, but it makes sense to [...]

After our Cashew Chicken treat this past weekend, we’ve been on a bit of an Asian kick. I love coming up with ways to Paleo-ify (is that a word?) our take-out favorites. So often they are overly breaded, fried and salt and sugar-laden, so it’s fun to come up with ways to achieve the flavor [...]

Ah, how is it already Friday!? I feel like this week went so fast! Maybe it’s because we’re fresh off a vacation? We need more of those if that’s the case. We’ve suffered from major kitchen avoidance this week. With triple-digit temperatures nearly all week (Wednesday was nearly being 107 degrees!), it feels impossible to [...]

I’m pretty proud of us, we got a lot done this weekend. However, none of it was blog-worthy. That’s not to say it wasn’t interesting, it was just a lot of paper-pushing and computer work. I’m concurrently working on my first two projects for work, and the hot weather and inability to do nearly anything [...]
