Cracking eggs one carton at a time.
My first experience with Thai food wasn't that long ago. I'm a relative newbie when it comes to Thai cuisine. There was a Thai restaurant in my hometown, but it was vastly different than the Thai food I've had since then. I'm thinking that place just called itself Thai, but was more like a dumbed-down… Continue reading Thai Peanut Chicken Flatbread
There's been radio silence on my end the past few days because I haven't been able to move. Literally. Not because I'm injured, or in pain---no. It's because our air conditioner went out late Saturday night, and Rob and I have spent the last two hottest days of the year (so far) with just the… Continue reading BBQ Chicken Bowls
Fresh, crispy vegetables. Sweet, ripe tomatoes. Grilled chicken. Summer is finally here, y'all, and I'm loving it.

The chips and salsa will be free… Continue reading Hawaiian Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner
Mondays. Ugh, Mondays. Like an itch you just can't shake, Mondays always hang over you. You know they're coming, you know they'll never go away, and yet every week by Friday you forget their existence. And then BAM! Sunday night rolls around and Monday is coming for you. I slept horribly last night, waking up… Continue reading Baked Mushroom Chicken & Rice
