    Grilled Corn

    Hey! So remember how I used to be a food blogger?! Holy shit. Meeee too! Life has gotten in the way quite a bit. Once upon a time… Before I owned a house… Became a wife… Got a puppy… Worked full-time… I could regularly do, just that. Lately, it has been quite the struggle. Now that Patrick travels pretty much every month, a lot of the responsibility of the house falls on me. And that’s okay. It is part of it, but it definitely doesn’t leave a lot of free time for me. I am fine with being alone. I have never been one of those people that is afraid…

    Baked Tomatoes with Corn and Goat Cheese

    Happy Monday! How is your Monday going? Did you have a nice weekend? My weekend was full of master bathroom remodeling and purchasing… ::blank look:: Which basically means, I am poor. Haha, bathroom remodels are expensive! Holy shmokes. We are limited in our space for the master bath. It isn’t a very large bathroom so we are trying to maximize our space. We currently have a whirlpool in our bathroom and it literally takes up half the room…eeeekk! So we are going to adjust that and remove the whirlpool and put something that in that is going to save a butt-load of space in that tiny area (about 10″). I…

    Corn on the Cob with Roasted Jalapeño Butter

    Do you ever notice that sometimes things don’t work out the way you planned them to? I never planned on moving from state to state the way I have. Although I wouldn’t change it for the world. I think that moving as much as I have has really shaped me as a person. There are people and places I would have never met or seen if I hadn’t of moved from KS to PA to now CT. I was very fortunate to be able to visit with my family and friends over the July 4th holiday in KS. I miss them all terribly and sometimes it is nice to go…

    Corn Cake

    Good Monday Morning to you all! I am super sleepy this morning and I have no idea why…I hate mornings like that where no matter what you do you still seem to be tired. This weekend was pretty low key. My parents took me to an early birthday dinner at a restaurant called Mill on the River. What a fantastic dinner this was! My dad is going to be out of town the entire week, and since my birthday is on Wednesday we thought it would be a better idea to go out the weekend before my birthday to celebrate. BOY did we! The food was absolutely outstanding, I mean…normally…

    Chicken Scaloppine with Lemon Sugar Snap Peas and Asparagus

    Another week has started already! I don’t know about you, but this year is just flying by me. I can’t believe that it is September…I can’t believe that September is almost over!! I guess that phrase is right “time flies when you are having fun”. 🙂 I have a feeling that this week is going to be a good one. I think work has been going better lately, which is a huge stress relief for me. I have been doing really well and just bringing in the big bucks for the company, haha! I don’t mean to beep my own horn but…BEEP! 😉 It is hard to be younger and…

    What kind of Sushi do I want?

    What an extremely busy week! Honestly…between, work, softball (we made the playoffs! woohoo! and won our game last night woohoooo!), working out, friends, animals, boyfriend, parents etc…I could go on forever, haha….it is hard to have time to cook. It really is! I enjoy cooking but sometimes I really have to almost “schedule” time to do it. At least it seems that way in the summer time for me. When it is winter and I don’t have as much going on it is much easier for me, but the summer is always hard for me to actually sit still in one spot and get something done, haha 😉 I feel…
