Corn Crab Cakes
Do you have a go to meal whenever you go out to a certain restaurant? I don’t mean like going to the SAME restaurant, but let’s say you go to a burger joint…is there always one burger you kind of look for? Or an Italian place where you always look for a certain kind of pasta? This is me when I go to a seafood place… “Do they have crab cakes?” This is like my go to thing that I just have to have every time I set foot in a place that makes crab cakes. To tell you the truth, crab cakes were one of my first seafood experiences.…

Watermelon Black Bean Salsa
How was your 4th of July?! Do anything fun? Patrick and I went up to Boston to see the “Boston Pops”, aka their firework celebration on the 4th of July. We had some…interesting events that happened while we were up there haha. Just to list a few: We road the T (subway) just about wherever we went. It is convenient and cheap, so why not right? Well whilst we were on the T, there was an older gentleman (perhaps I shouldn’t call him that, just keep reading) who was having quite a sneezing attack. Such an attack that the majority of those sitting around him moved down a little in…

Kung Pao Chicken
TGIF!! Any big plans this weekend? I have the cooking class, other than that just lots of working out trying to get more in shape for my trip to Disney in May. Yup that’s right! I am going to Disney!! I have never been. My brother went a couple times but I wasn’t ever taken. I think my grandparents on my Mom’s side liked him better as a child haha. He went like 2 or 3 times and I never got to go. Well you know what?! I AM GOING NOW! The girls I play softball with got a timeshare down there for an entire week around Memorial day so…

Turk-loaf-ey with Traditional Topping
Did you all go over and check out Steph’s Bakesale?? It was an amazing line up and it seems like she had great success. So thank you to all of you who went over to check it out and bid on items. I know she is very grateful! How was your weekend?? Mine was good. Pretty low key. Had rehearsal on Saturday night, which was good. We are getting ready for our Spring show for the dance company I am in. Should be a good one I think :-). I like all the pieces Jenn has picked so that always makes it easier. I just hope I life up to…

Stuffed Red Peppers
Thank you all for the Top 9 today! So nice of you all to have buzzed my post for my mom with the Cinnamon Chip Scones. 🙂 The Lenten season has begun…I have always taken part in Lent. Something my family and I have been doing ever since I can remember. Do you give anything up for Lent? I know a lot of people say they take Sundays “off” during Lent so they can indulge in that they gave up, I am not one of those people. I do stay away from meat on Fridays during Lent, but then again I don’t eat a lot of meat to begin with.…

Chicken Pepper Pasta
Hello everyone! I have been MIA this week. Been feeling slightly under the weather and I missed 2 days of work this week which has made the rest of my week pretty hectic during the day. You know whenever you miss a few days of something you just feel out of sorts? That is how I feel this week. I am sure I will get back up to speed, but it is the catching up that is the brutal part. HOWEVER! In the coming weeks I have some really exciting news to share with all of you. I don’t mean to hold you all in suspense, but I just wanted…

I am here to inform you that Kristin’s wedding was a blast! She was just the prettiest bride and everything seemed to go so very smoothly for her. I am so happy for her! 😀 Patrick and I had a great time! We definitely enjoyed all the food and danced the entire night which is always a good time. I promised that I would show a picture of my dress so here it is! I personally think the best part of my outfit was my hair…I went to get it done at my salon for the first time for a wedding. I NEVER do that, don’t ask why because I…

Tilapia with Pineapple Salsa
This week is supplier week at work, which means BUSY! Our company has all our suppliers come in this week for a trade show and then a golf tournament for fun and to also show our appreciation for them doing business with us. It makes for a very chaotic and choppy week. Interruptions and supplier dinners all week long haha. Needless to say, I am ready for the weekend already. Which will include MORE demo on my parents house… This past winter when there was so much snow in New England my parents ended up having a TON of water damage from the ice on the roof. So, they are…
