Sharing My Life One Bite at a Time
Two years ago today, Mal and I officially became homeowners!! I can’t believe two years has flown by so quickly. I also can’t believe we’ve managed to stay in one place for an entire two years. Remember when we used to move every 6 months or so? I’m not going to lie, I’m so glad [...]

Hello, hello! Last night was all about veggie prep for the upcoming week. I cut up raw veggies (carrots, cucumbers, and celery) and then roasted and sautéed a bunch (beets, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, mushrooms, and zucchini), so I have them ready to go whenever I need them. Reduced broccoli is great roasted—once you cook it, [...]

Mal has been away at a bachelor party all weekend, so it’s been just Murphy and me hanging out. With the pug’s eyes all gunky and ulcer-y, I decided to have a low-key weekend at home and take care of him the best I could, which meant that we had a crazy Saturday night together. [...]
