Hiya friends! How’s the start to your fall going? It’s still hot here in Chicago – but this weekend we’re finally getting into the 60’s which I am THRILLED for. Pumpkin patch, here I come! Because I tend to live in the next season, I’ve already been toying […]
Hiiiieeeeeee everybody! Are we ready for fall?! I AM! It finally got a little chilly today in Chicago and it’s totally gloomy and I’m loving every minute of it. I even already have a date planned with my gal Katrina from Baking with Soul to come over to […]
Well I had the best darn day touring the beautiful, lush Gardens at Ball! I was invited to tour the grounds and to learn about upcoming flower, herb and veggie trends from their super-knowledgeable experts. I’ve only been dabbling in gardening since we moved into the house two […]
I don’t want to just come out and say that this is the best dip ever…bbbbbuuuutttttttt…it is. 😀 I made this dip for a 4th of July party and it was a hit. Per Dave, “people were scraping the bottom of the bowl.” So I doubled the batch […]

I feel like I haven’t done a great job at communicating to you all how much of an insane cat lady I am. Like, if I could move to a farm and save all the kitties, I would in a second. In fact, that may be a retirement […]
Oooooooh BABY this is one dang good pasta salad if I do say so myself. 😀 This recipe was really born from my herb garden sort of exploding – especially the mint. And while I enjoy a good mojito every now and again, there was no way I […]
I adore that I’m sitting on my back porch right now in this lovely weather on a Friday night writing a blog with a cold one listening to Janet Jackson’s Escapade. Kind of my dream night. We (well, really Dave) have been working so hard on getting our […]
I am in shock. I’ll admit that I’ve internally scoffed when I have seen friends and acquaintances post about their deep sadness and heartbreak regarding celebrity deaths. I really didn’t get it. Until now. So, shame on me. As an example, I know people were devastated by the […]
