We've been imbibing a bit too much since the pandemic began. I'm not usually one to drink very much, if at all, but lately the White Claw and wine has been calling to me. I guess it's okay since the world is ending or whatever, right? I still keep it to the weekends and I… Continue reading Wine Drunk Pasta

Sloppy Joe Pasta
A break would be nice. A long, extended weekend would be wonderful right now. A day to recoup, exhale, and relax. I think just about everyone could use that. I've been knees-deep in work lately. Severe weather season is slowly dragging to a close. By June 1st, we usually are out of the woods. June… Continue reading Sloppy Joe Pasta
Chicken Marsala Orzo
After a weekend away from my apartment, I'm back.

Like my… Continue reading Beer Brat Mac & Cheese

I'm not one for New Year's resolutions. The chances of me keeping them? Slim to none. In fact, I don't think I've ever kept a single resolution my entire life. Does that mean I'm impulsive? Too flakey? Bad at commitment? Or maybe I just set really unattainable goals. Oh well. There's no failing if you… Continue reading Parmesan-Crusted Fried Tortellini
Teriyaki Chicken Noodle Bowls
The London Symphony Orchestra's version of Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker plays throughout the house. The track is on Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, right after the Pas De Deux. Chocolate and cinnamon and sugar cookie smells fill the air. The Christmas is lit up and twinkling with warm gold lights. Red food coloring is smeared… Continue reading Teriyaki Chicken Noodle Bowls
