Today is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day. Though in my house Chocolate Chip Cookie Day is everyday of the year (which explains why everything is fitting so tight these days). Fresh from the oven. Try not to lick the screen. Chocolate Chip Cookies are my weakness. Not only do I bake them, I have to [...] Read More
I only write about products that I use and love. So, when Method reached out to me, I was delighted to be able to shout from the rooftop (or online equivalent) about how much I adore their products. For years I’ve been using their hand and dish washing soaps, which come in eye-catching colors, shapely [...] Read More
Sticky fingers aren’t always on small hands. If you’re anything like me and can’t seem to keep your hands off your Smart Phone and/or iPad while working in the kitchen, putting on makeup, getting crafty with glue or impatiently waiting for your mani to dry, but want to keep your high tech gadget clean, cover [...] Read More

My hubby and I like to go to a cute little cafe for breakfast on the weekends. They make my coffee look so pretty. Like this: Last week my hubby’s coffee came like this… Clearly someone has a sense [...] Read More
I call this Tunacado. It’s a healthier version of tuna salad because it’s blended with avocado instead of Mayonnaise. Tunacado has the same creamy texture you’d want with an awesome nutty avocado taste. I am addicted. College Boy likes it too (which means it’s got to be good). Tunacado (I love how it rolls off [...] Read More
Oh my friends, it’s been one of those days when only chocolate will make things right again. But I’m a bit of a diva, so not just any chocolate will do. Here are a few of my favorite dark chocolate bars. What kind of friend would I be if I didn’t share? Eat them without [...] Read More
In honor of Cinco de Mayo, I’m sharing my favorite Guacamole recipe. It comes from a charming seaside restaurant in Punta Mita, Mexico, where they prepare it right at your table while you drool. For the best flavor and visual effects, use a Molcajete (can be found at William Sonoma and Crate & Barrel) to [...] Read More
