Superbowl! February 2, 2012 2 Comments

Super Bowl weekend is almost here! We might have some people wander over for the big game (Confession: I don’t even know who’s playing) so I’ve been hunting down some appetizer recipes. As if the appetizer gods knew of my search an email from GoJee arrived today with some Super Bowl favorites from around the [...]

Recipe Cards January 19, 2012 No Comments

I’m kind of crazy about the idea of framing recipe cards from important ladies (or men) in your life and hanging them in the kitchen. And this image keeps popping up on my Pinterest feed so it seems a lot of you are as well! I’ll probably ditch the ribbon for my own space, but [...]

Cocktail Party December 16, 2011 4 Comments

Erin over at Design for Mankind put together a stellar gift guide for your neighbors and, while everything was beautiful, the sweater mug was too awesome not to share. Can’t you just see yourself sipping hot chocolate out of one? Source: Molla Space

Holiday Cocktail December 5, 2011 5 Comments

The Red Head and I are throwing a little holiday cocktail party in a couple weeks and I think these Cranberry Mojitos should be included in the bar set-up. Perfectly festive and oh-so delicious, these are definitely happening. Source: We Are Not Martha

Updated Gift Giving November 30, 2011 2 Comments

Somehow at the end of the holiday season my mom always ends up with about 3 or 4 jars of ‘just add the wet ingredients’ cookie kits. While a nice thought, I’m thinking that some of these ideas from Whole Foods have a bit more potential. Neighbors, if you’re reading this post I apologize. We [...]
