I don’t know about you but I always seem to have leftover chicken and leftover noodles in the fridge. It’s easy enough to turn the two of them plus some tomato sauce and cheese into a baked pasta for a weeknight dinner. But honestly, that idea makes me bored. So bored. I’m not going to [...]
Read More...I’m at Jane’s Today with Caprese Pasta Salad
I have a guest post up at Jane’s Adventures in Dinner today. In that post I mope a bit about my lack of friends in Florida. What I come to realize is that I do have friends, I just don’t see them in person often, if at all. Ironically, last night I was reminded of [...]

I’m at my parents’ home in Manitoba where it is *actually* springtime. There’s a crispness to the lilac-scented air that Floridians only ever feel in January (if we’re lucky). The air here is not the only thing spoiling us. My toddler has been showered with toys, jelly beans and attention. And, since my room is [...]
