My fiancé and I have been binge watching Queer Eye, and tbh we have learned a lot of tips. He learned the spray, stay, sashay for cologne, and I learned about how to cut grapefruit segments in the easiest & prettiest way (I'll explain later). After that I have been thinking about ways to use … Continue reading Grapefruit, Fennel, & Radish Salad
Hello, friends! I must start off by saying this post is somewhat of a cheat- last week I posted about how easy it was to make a baked blueberry oatmeal and THIS is basically the same recipe. But- I used blackberries. I want you all to know how SIMPLE it is to make breakfast a … Continue reading Blackberry, chocolate and coconut baked oatmeal

It's pretty simple- butter bread, put the cheese in it, cook it in a pan until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted. BAM! You've got grilled cheese. Pretty simple.

I love the colors of Fall- the rich and bright greens, yellows, oranges, and reds. I love Halloween movies. Most … Continue reading Slow Cooker Cinnamon Apples
I had the best foodie childhood in my personal opinion. My first 12 years of life were spent living directly next-door to my aunts, who lived directly next-door to my Nonna. Every night I would go from house to house to find out what everyone was making for dinner, and chose which house I wanted … Continue reading Escarole & Tosti
Garlic is one of my favorite ingredients for just about all food. Being Italian-American, there is never enough garlic. The smell of it is so comforting and gives me immediate flashbacks to childhood. One of my favorite quick dishes from childhood is pasta agile e olio. Simply, pasta with garlic and oil. Garlic is sautéed … Continue reading Pasta Aglio e Olio with a twist
