Fresh Strawberry Pie

May 25, 2017 10 Comments

One of my favorite childhood memories is of my parents taking me strawberry picking in Texas. No idea where…Corpus Christi? Houston? Unclear. All I know is that it was one of those places where the strawberry plants were grown stacked on top of each other, so the rows of plants (each plant loaded with ripe berries) towered…read more »

Mini Grilled Hasselback Potatoes

March 30, 2017 6 Comments

You guys. It’s been over three months since my last post, and big things have happened since then! First, and most importantly, Dan and I found out that I’m pregnant! 17 weeks and counting. Baby Rodgers (no idea what the sex is just yet…we find out in three weeks!) arrives on September 7th, and we’re all very excited…especially the soon-to-be grandparents. So…read more »

Grilled Chicken Thighs with Italian Salsa Verde

June 27, 2016 Leave a Comment

A few weeks ago I flew out to Portland for a long weekend with some girl friends, and we spent 72 hours eating our way around the city. Did we plan our whole trip around food? Definitely yes. And. It. Was. AMAZING. The food scene in Portland is crazy good, you guys. A sampling of…read more »

Wine Slushie Pops

June 25, 2016 2 Comments

Summer is officially here, and it’s starting to get hot here in Virginia. Usually that means the start of cocktail season at our house, but now that I’m 30 my body suddenly won’t tolerate the endless stream of sugary, boozy beverages that I want to put into it. Acid reflux and hangovers – they’re no joke, you guys. So,…read more »

Easy Veggie Dip

July 7, 2015 Leave a Comment

Happy Tuesday, everyone! Did y’all have a good holiday weekend? Dan and I did! To get our weekend started off with a bang, we let ourselves get talked into a midnight 5K in the city with our friends Liz and Scott (Liz…you definitely owe me a trip to the suburbs for this). This led to much…read more »

Confetti Salsa

January 31, 2015 6 Comments

Guys – I’ve got one last post for you before the Super Bowl, and it’s going to be a short one. Partly because I’m feeling lazy, and partly because I was in a rush with my picture-taking so most of them didn’t turn out that well. Oh well – you win some, you lose some. Anyway! Today’s recipe comes…read more »

Snacktastic Sundays: Buffalo Chicken Jalapeno Poppers

December 21, 2014 6 Comments

Short Snacktastic Sundays post today, folks! We were headed to Brad and Amy’s new place to watch the Patriot’s/Jets game at 1pm, and things were running a little behind schedule. Despite getting up at 8:30am today, I somehow didn’t make it into the kitchen until 11:30am (isn’t it crazy how time just disappears on the weekend?). I…read more »

Snacktastic Sundays: Marinated Mozzarella Bites

November 23, 2014 11 Comments

Guys, I did an insane amount of cooking this weekend. With Thanksgiving almost literally upon us, I wanted to put together a Turkey Day recipe round up post. Suggested appetizers, entrees, side dishes, desserts, etc. – you know the drill. BUT, I discovered, to my surprise (and dismay), that I have almost no side dishes in my archives. Are…read more »

Snacktastic Sundays: Hot & Sticky Crock Pot Chicken

October 12, 2014 20 Comments

Today’s post is brought to you by virtue of the fact that every other game day snack I tried to cook this afternoon either (1) didn’t happen or (2) got horribly botched. First, I tried to make Carla Hall’s Hot Fried Chicken. Things were going great, and my chicken was brining happily in the fridge,…read more »

Snacktastic Sundays: Classic Pigs-in-a-Blanket

October 5, 2014 2 Comments

Now that it’s fall and we’re well into football season, I’ve decided to start a new weekly blog series. I’ll call it Snacktastic Sundays (it’s a working title), and feature one new game day snack recipe per week. On Sundays, obviously, ‘cuz that’s when all the big football action goes down. I guess technically there are football games on Mondays…read more »
