The first few weeks of 2022 have been a whirlwind for our family, and I’m sure many of you feel the same way. This smoothie has come in handy recently when I don’t have much time or energy (like when caring for my toddler sick with croup). I don’t usually replace my meals with smoothies, […]

Here it is, my go-to evening libation for the 2021 holiday season. Usually I’m a “glass of wine type person”, but this deliciously boozy, creamy, holiday spiced drink has my number. If you have ever spiked your eggnog, this drink is for you. If you don’t like eggnog, this drink is still for you (spoiler: […]

This all began innocently enough one evening while making watermelon limeade. Before you knew it, I had poured some tequila into my no-longer-limeade and was knee deep in concocting a margarita recipe (a surprise to approximately no one). I then mixed together some chili-lime salt because, well, why not? The good news is that I […]

In anticipation of 2021, let me say “cheers” to you with this cocktail. What a year it’s been. Not quite the roaring 20s some of us hoped for, to say the least. I heard someone joke recently that none of us will be writing the wrong year on our checks in 2021 (do people still […]

For those of you who feel a pang of sadness with the realization that summer is over, let this beverage help you transition into the fall season.

We’ve reached that point in the summer when I brazenly curse the hot days and 90 degree afternoons in our kitchen (yes, 90 degrees, inside), but at the same time I’m celebrating our need for popsicles and cooling afternoon cocktails. About this time last year we were saying “cheers” with The Adeline champagne cocktail (in […]

I’ll be honest, what I really want to eat right now is a vat of macaroni and cheese, not a smoothie. But for myself and many others, January has evolved to be just as much of a mental reset as it is a dietary cleanse. I acknowledge that diet culture is damaging and body shaming […]

On August 26th, Patrick and I welcomed (a couple weeks early) our daughter Adeline into the world! We couldn’t be happier or more sleep deprived or more confused about what day of the week it is (though I hear that today is Labor Day, and from now onward I’m going to think of it in […]

Cold brew is the coffee drink of summer. Or, in our house, the year round coffee drink of choice. To be fair, I love my stovetop espresso, but Patrick and I are the crazy people who will drink iced cold brew even in the dead of winter. We’ve been single handedly funding Trader Joes through our […]

We’ve all experienced rushed or, dare I say, frantic mornings where time to make both coffee and breakfast is non-existent. For Patrick and I, coffee usually wins out in that situation. Fortunately, there are ways to have both in one fell swoop, like a smoothie, though I still recommend eating “real food” for breakfast whenever […]
