gnocchi with fresh arugula walnut pesto

January 27, 2012

You know those certain food memories that you have that come on so strong at the most random of times? That’s me and pesto gnocchi. I was nineteen, a freshman in college and just had had my wisdom teeth pulled (four impacted plus dry sockets, thank you very much). I was so intent on feeling [...]

January 26, 2012

Well, hey there! How’s your week going? I have been living in my kitchen this week, cooking my little tail off, because next week I’m actually flying to Florida to help Todd and Diane shoot the new Steamy Kitchen cookbook! I met the lovely White on Rice Couple a few years ago at an event [...]

blood orange italian soda

January 19, 2012

Lately, I’ve been absolutely addicted to the blood orange Italian soda from Trader Joe’s. It tastes just like the orange soda I drank when I was 21 a kid but I tell myself it’s obviously healthier because it’s a) organic and b) from Trader Joe’s. Sugar schmugar! I drink what I want. When I saw [...]

deep dish salted chocolate chip cookie pie

January 18, 2012

What’s the first thing you think about in the morning? For me, yesterday morning it was chocolate chip cookies. I NEEDED a chocolate chip cookie. Like NEEEEEEEEEEEDED one. It was 6:30 am.
