Summer in Texas: Ice Cream & Cannonballs (and a giveaway!)

May 14, 2012

I don’t need a calendar to tell me that summer is nearly here.

Alfajore Moon Pies

March 2, 2012

Quirk Books contacted me a while back about participating in Marsh Madness to celebrate Shauna Sever’s new cookbook release, Marshmallow Madness. And I jumped all over it.

Baked Penne with Chicken & Kale + Microplane Giveaway

January 10, 2012

How do you get a 2-year old and a slightly-reformed veggie hater to eat leafy greens? You add pasta. It never fails. We’ve set a couple of goals this year, one of the big ones – and probably the most difficult one – is to eat more plants. There’s a direct correlation between the size [...]
