Spaghetti and Meatballs
Every year, for my birthday, my mother cooks me dinner. She has made me the same dinner, every year, since I was about eight years old. Spaghetti and meatballs. It’s my favorite thing that she makes. I had fresh oregano … Continue reading
Roasted Flank Steak with Olive Oil Herb Rub
My husband Stephen refers to this recipe as “you know, that one you make where you burned the hell out of your hand that time.” Such infamy for such an elegant and easy dish. It’s true, though; I totally burned … Continue reading
Lemon-Thyme Chicken with Parmesan Zucchini
We eat a lot of chicken. There are only so many ways to cook it before you’re completely bored. In the summer, we grill. In the winter, we bake. There are a hundred ways to vary this marinade, but the … Continue reading
Smoky Turkey Shepherd’s Pie
This is one of Rachael Ray’s 30 minute meals. It took me an hour and a half. Seriously, has anyone ever in the history of time made one of her thirty minute meals in thirty minutes? This is one of … Continue reading
Pasta with Creamy Sauce
Today was one of those days where nothing bad happened, but it was just an annoying, blah, crappy day. It was a cloudy, gray, yucky day outside, too. Days like today are made for comfort food. This is a fast … Continue reading

Beef and Tomato Stew
It’s literally 5 degrees outside today here in Massachusetts. FIVE. That doesn’t even factor in the wind chill. I knew it was going to be, in the words of my son, chilly out today, but I had no idea it … Continue reading
Butterscotch Blondies
Growing up in my house there were two kinds of dessert (mostly): chocolate and pie. If it could be both, that was even more awesome. Anything else was pretty much unthinkable, per my dad. Which is why I think he … Continue reading
Garlic Parmesan Oven Fries (+ a bonus veggie)
Apparently, the Today Show does some sort of Home Chef competition. I’m usually on my way to work before the Today Show even starts, so I’m not sure what this contest was. I saw this recipe on the website and … Continue reading
Honey Mustard Chicken Tenders
This is one of those made up recipes where I never measure anything. So it comes out a little different each time I make it. But I haven’t completely screwed it up yet with my not-measuring antics, so I’m pretty … Continue reading
