If you ask me on any given day what Dan and I had for dinner the night before, the answer will probably be “fried rice.” It’s not that we’re fried rice fanatics…it’s just that the stuff is so easy to make, so delicious, and so versatile. You can cook it with any ingredients you want, any…read more »
Baked Chicken Roll-Ups with Light Mushroom Cream Sauce
So Dan has abandoned me for the snowy slopes of Tahoe this weekend. Yeah. Weather’s finally getting really awesome in Virginia and the guy voluntarily leaves all this warmth and sunshine for a place buried under six feet of snow. [Shakes head] Dan’s idea of fun may be rolling around in a big pile of snow,…read more »
Festive Cheese Rounds
The holidays are all about spending time with friends and family, and that means that means one thing — tons of dinner parties with guests galore. And, of course, feasting.

Our flight was at 10:30am on…read more »

Today I want to talk to you guys about Crock Pot Chili…read more »

Kimchi Bokumbop (Kimchi Fried Rice)
Happy Lunar New Year, everyone! All last week I had grand plans to make jiao zi (dumplings) and dou sha bao (steamed buns with red bean paste) and other Chinese goodies, but somehow I never got around to it. Fortunately, the New Year is supposed to be celebrated for 15 days, so I’ve still got…read more »
Shrimp & Grits
In an effort to make post-graduation-bar-exam-studying less painful, my friends and I have decided to start a dinner club and take turns hosting potluck dinners once a week. We call it the “Summer Supper Club,” and each dinner will have a different theme. Today’s inaugural dinner theme: Southern Comfort. So we feasted on pulled pork…read more »
