No-Churn Strawberry Fudge-Swirl Ice Cream

July 3, 2013 6 Comments

Guys, it’s really hard to photograph ice cream. It’s not even that hot outside, but my scoops starting melting basically as soon as they hit the bowl. And while goopy, melted ice cream is delicious, that deliciousness doesn’t really translate well visually. Which is why you’re only getting one picture of this fabulous strawberry fudge-swirl ice…read more »

Frozen Peach Margaritas

It’s almost Cinco de Mayo! Otherwise known as my favorite excuse to make and drink a whole bunch of margaritas. I realize that two back to back cocktail posts might make it look like I have a bit of a drinking problem, but I don’t — I swear! I just like icy cold beverages made…read more »

Cherry-Berry Frozen Mojitos

Today was the nicest day we’ve had in a while — clear skies, high of 70, lots of sun, and no wind. It was a day meant to be spent outside. So, instead of lounging around our condo being lazy like we usually do on Saturdays, Dan and I decided to revive our balcony garden….read more »

Buttermilk Pancakes with Blackberry Sauce

April 8, 2013 6 Comments

Happy Monday, everybody! What did y’all do this weekend? Dan and I were shockingly social and productive — instead of lounging around in our PJs and playing video games all day, we actually went out and did stuff.

Strawberry Banana Daiquiris

Dan can tell you that I’ve gone a little smoothie crazy lately. Those green smoothies from last weekend were the first smoothies I’ve had in ages, and guys? Smoothies are delicious! And, if you sneak in some leafy greens and high protein yogurt, they’re pretty good for you too! I’m a fan. So much of…read more »

Apple Crunch Pie Apple Cups

January 6, 2013 22 Comments

For me, the hardest part of dieting is cutting back on desserts. More lean protein, less carbs? Fine, hand me the chicken breast, and I’ll give you the bread basket. More fruits and veggies? Awesome! I love fruit, and can do some serious damage to a pile of greens. But when I see a plate…read more »

Orange-o’-Lanterns

October 22, 2012 24 Comments

I’ve decided that I can’t be bothered to carve pumpkins this year. Too much effort, too much mess, and not enough of an audience to justify the blistered fingers (no trick or treating in our building, boooo!). Plus, who needs jack-o’-lanterns when you can make these adorable, versatile orange-o’-lanterns? The innards are easier to eat…read more »
