About a year and a half ago, I had the immense pleasure of working with the Lee Brothers for a week while they did the food photography for their new cookbook- Charleston Kitchen. Well, the book has finally come out, and we went to a small launch party last night where I got to see […]

I did not stay up to watch the Oscars. I wanted to, and I planned to, but I fell asleep putting Walker to bed. To be honest, I really haven’t seen many of the movies that were nominated, so I wasn’t totally invested. But I really do love watching the Red Carpet and all of […]
We had the best time in the mountains with friends this past weekend. With 8 kids, 6 adults and 2 snow storms it was definitely a little chaotic, but the kids had a great time sledding and building snowmen, and the adults had an even better time sitting by the fire eating and drinking. The […]
My Valentine’s day presents to Corby have ranged from venison beef jerky to a weird ridiculously toxic old fabric cleaner that his dad used to have and is apparently awesome. Clearly we are not traditional Valentine’s Day celebrators. This is mainly because Corby’s birthday is on February 16th, and he likes his birthday a lot […]
Valentine’s Day is almost here which of course means I can eat red hots all day long. It doesn’t really but I am using it as an excuse. I love red hots. They are in my top five favorite candies, and sometimes they are really hard to find. Fortunately, they are always in the baking […]
For those of you who watched the Superbowl last night- what did you think? For those of you who didn’t- it was a pretty interesting game- complete with a 35 minute delay because half of the stadium lights went out which caused quite a momentum shift. Anyway- Ravens won- football is over til September. I […]
I love the Superbowl- not because I love football, because I really don’t care about NFL football- college football is a slightly different story (I care a little bit), but I love the Superbowl for the food. It is such a great excuse to eat a lot of cheesy, meaty, greasy, bready foods and drink […]
I was flipping through the channels on Saturday morning and stopped at a cooking show where two women were making a chiffon cake. Of course I was inspired immediately, so instead of watching the rest of the show or even figuring out what show it was, I started googling chiffon cake recipes. There are quite […]
Sometimes there is nothing better than a chocolate chip cookie. I used to make them all the time when I was little- starting from scratch with the recipe on the back of the Nestle Toll House yellow bag. So great. Of course, eating the dough was my favorite part, but warm chocolate chip cookies are […]
I love bananas in dessert. They add such a wonderful flavor and creamy texture, and somehow any dessert with bananas evokes some great far off memory I can never quite put my finger on. Banana splits, banana pudding, banana bread- they are all delicious. I came across this recipe in Saveur Magazine, and wow- it […]
