JMT Trail Planning – Meal Prepjambalaya, bitches!The main reason I decided to write about this backpacking trip Jennifer and I are going on (NEXT WEEK!) is because we’ve gotten a ton of questions as the trip has come closer and closer to really happening (although let’s be honest – I have a week or so left to chicken out, right?).Aside from the inevitable question… |

Nduja (en-doo-yah).So, yeah. Hi!The other night, Chris asked me how long it’s been since I’d posted. July 2014. Woah. But on occasion, I miss this place. I know I say that every time I disappear for a while, but it’s true. Plus, sometimes I make something that I just need to share. And tonight, that happened.I still cook the same way. A lot of other… |

Mai TaiBefore I get going here, let me just say that I am outrageously happy to have a “search” tool on my blog. I was really on a roll a few years ago in this ol’ space, and apparently have found the time to post, according to my ‘category’ labels, 285 recipes. What?! That essentially means that there are a lot, and that I am bound to… |

Chicken. Roasted.We are often out and about on the weekends. You know, living our wild and crazy child-less lives (if you click that link, the article is really great. just sayin’). Or maybe just playing board games at someone’s house, if you really want to know. We like to think we’re simple and low-key, but our budget tells us we spend a shit-ton of… |

Tangerine.I’m sure you’ve come to accept less frequent posts from me. For a minute, well, lots of individual minutes, I’ve contemplated calling it quits altogether. But I come back to one source of momentum: I like writing. I’ve never felt that I was particularly good at it, or that I had anything of any real importance to write about, but… |

Spring. Pasta.I know. I know! FOOD! How freaking crazy is that? On a FOOD blog?Alright. I’ll stop being dramatic. I just realized that, if I didn’t post something soon, May would go by with not one single post. And I know that, even though it’s only May 15th, because we’re about to get up out of this country for nearly 2 weeks, and I definitely… |

Pork Sandwich.Anybody out there watch the Walking Dead? Well, we are pretty hooked on the show, honest to goodness. Chris has read the comics since Issue 1, so he was stoked when they announced a TV adaptation. Me? I tend to watch the zombie movies/shows/etc just to make him happy. Me not whining seems to make him not whine, which in general is a… |
