Hello, again! I unintentionally took a very long break from blogging, so let me update you on the last few months of craziness. Evan and I traveled to Minnesota for Christmas and spent a very nice, relaxing week with my family. Toaster made the trip with us and enjoyed every minute of playing in (and […]
Thanksgiving & Apple Pie
Happy Thanksgiving! It’s hard to believe we’re approaching another Holiday season because this year has really gone by fast. Between travelling, attending numerous weddings, and buying our first home, I watched spring turn into summer so quickly and before I knew it, I was drinking pumpkin beer and decorating for fall. Sometimes (okay, more like […]
Europe Part VII: Paris, France
In case you missed my previous European posts, Evan and I started our trip in London, then traveled to Belgium and the Netherlands, Germany and Austria, Venice and Florence, Rome and Switzerland. From Switzerland, we made the final stop of our two-week journey through Europe in Paris, France. The drive from Switzerland to Paris was […]
Cold Brew
I first learned how to make cold brew when I worked as a barista for a few months after college. I was applying for engineering jobs like crazy, living in a southern suburb of Minneapolis, and barely making enough money to pay for rent. But aside from the low pay and super early morning shifts, […]
Europe Part VI: Switzerland
In case you haven’t been following our entire European adventure, or want to check out some of my previous posts, I’ll do a quick recap of our travel plan thus far. We spent two days in London, took the high-speed train under the English Channel to Belgium, then boarded a bus and drove to Amsterdam. […]
Baked Chicken Strips
I was recently doing my weekly grocery shopping on AmazonFresh (one of the many perks of living in downtown Seattle – I feel spoiled having my groceries delivered to my door) and I discovered Just Bare chicken breast tenders. I immediately thought about how much easier making homemade chicken strips would be and I knew […]
Homemade Grain-Free Dog Treats
My husband and I spoil our puppy, Toaster, with treats, especially when training her and reinforcing good behavior. We’ve tried a lot of different varieties and as long as the treats are small enough, she typically loves them. We even accidentally bought her cat treats once and she still enjoyed them (sorry about that, Toast). […]
Europe Part V: Rome & Vatican City, Italy
As I mentioned in my latest European post about Venice and Florence, we traveled from Venice to Rome and for the first time on our trip, spent two nights in one city. Our entire trip was very busy and we were constantly on the go, so being able to unpack a bit and spend additional […]
Chili
I know it’s February and it was just Valentine’s Day, but I haven’t posted in a while so I wanted to say I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday season! I took a little break from blogging; not intentionally, but it always tends to take a back seat to everything else when I have a […]
Homemade Turkey Stock
I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving! Hopefully you enjoyed a delicious turkey, along with many other great dishes, and of course, pie! I made a mini-Thanksgiving dinner a few weeks ago for Friendsgiving, so I wasn’t planning on making a turkey this year. However, some friends decided to not travel home as well, so […]
