The weekend went by in a blur. Somehow. I mean, it was painful losing 3 hockey games in a matter of 16 hours, but…had fun losing with the group of guys that I did. We made some memories and most definitely had lots of laughs. It really made me miss playing in tournaments – something I grew up doing ...

30-Minute Spicy Chicken Lo Mein
As expected, this first full week back to work after the holidays has been a doozy. In many ways, it’s great to be busy at work again, but this week has definitely been stressful!

Fish Florentine
If you live in the Midwest, you’ve probably been enjoying temperatures in the 60’s. In late December. WHAT IS THE DEAL? I’m pretending to be blissfully unaware of the fact that this is not good for our beaches, crops, earth…so on and so forth. Driveway sitting (so classy) on Christmas Day is a ...

Oatmeal-Almond Breakfast Cookies + Weekly Menu
I need to get my rear in gear. I’ve got a TON of wrapping to do. It just…doesn’t feel like Christmas is 2 days away. It’s 52 degrees outside and I’m working every day except Christmas. My prep for hosting Christmas has included purchasing champagne and a few groceries for appetizers. Binging on ... Read More about Oatmeal-Almond Breakfast Cookies + Weekly Menu
