Well, it turns out that these cookies are just sooooo delicious, that anyone you bake them for, will want to propose to you. You can read about it here in the cook's note. Not only are these cookies addictive and delicious, but they also dirty less dishes. That's right, for these cookies you only need one pot! The way to a girl's heart (at least this girl's heart) is less dishes to wash. I love that these cookies are filled with both white and milk chocolate chips. And I was excited ... VIEW POST

Brown Butter Parmesan Chicken Linguine
This pasta dirties A LOT of dishes. And despite that horrifying image, I would make it again. 'Cause I liked it...I liked it A LOT. Unfortunately, Ryan was sick, all stuffed up, and couldn't taste anything, so he obviously didn't appreciate this pasta as much as I did. You best believe I had no problem finishing the leftovers all by myself. Mmmm...so good. Sweet caramelized onions, decadently rich brown butter, wine-soaked mushrooms, topped off with salty Parmesan = one kick-ass pasta! ... VIEW POST

Red Velvet Rice Krispie Treats
I'm not a traditional sap when it comes to Valentine's Day. I'm not a red rose kind-of-gal, I don't understand adults receiving stuffed animals as gifts, and I can never seem to get past the first bite in a box of chocolates. Please don't think I'm a Valentine's Scrooge. I'm not...I promise. Hey, I was beyond giddy last year, when Ryan surprised me with a five-course meal at a French restaurant. At the same time, I'm not a gal that's incredibly disappointed just relaxing at home on Valentine's ... VIEW POST

Not Yo Mamma’s Meatloaf Muffins
For some people, the word meatloaf conjures up unappetizing memories. I must say I ate my fair share of nasty meatloaf as a kid. Despite the name of the post, my mom made a pretty good meatloaf, but somehow I was forced to eat greasier versions at other houses with unidentified crunchy chunks. Now that I have you reliving all of those terrible meatloaf experiences, I wanna introduce this recipe. My mom found this recipe in Cooking Light magazine and I fell in love. It's delicious! The ...

Root Beer for Grown Ups
About a month ago, Ryan and I were walking through the liquor store, when I spotted this old-timey bottle. I was intrigued. Upon closer inspection, I saw that it was a root beer liqueur, named after an old man: the Blackmaker. The bottle's tag tells the tale of a grumpy gentleman, who spent his time in the mountains, collecting herbs and making concoctions. He sold his mixtures to the town store, including this liqueur. I can't resist booze with a kooky story. ... VIEW POST

Parmesan Coated Goat Cheese with Basil Oil
What it is that makes folks shy away from goat cheese? Maybe it's the word goat that's not so appetizing. It's probably the funky smell. But if you that love feta, you've learned to move past that punch in the nose. My love affair with goat cheese began while living in France in college. At parties, they would set out small bites of goat cheese with fresh herbs sprinkled on top. Creamy, tangy, and so freaking good. Fin AI Invest delivers smart FinAI Belgium financial trading ...
