So I almost bought this shirt to wear on Thanksgiving. Alllllllmost. Thanksgiving in my house is not about wearing dresses and tights and nice shoes and curling my hair. No. It’s about putting your eatin’-clothes on and vegging out. We don’t eat dinner at 1, or 2, or 3, or 4. We eat dinner at

Parmesan Smashed Potatoes
I may lose my foodie card today, because I have to tell you that there is one food I have yet to master on a consistent basis – and that is mashed potatoes. Most of the time when I make mashed potatoes, they are just ok. They aren’t terrible, but they don’t knock your socks

It is finally here – it is finally upon us – one of my most favorite food holidays of the year! – THANKSGIVING. Thanksgiving wasn’t always one of my favorite food holidays of the year. There was a time once when I couldn’t have cared less about turkey, it was really just another day off
Cheeseburgers
HEY! HI GUYS! How are you?! It’s Friday and I just got the most amazing news and it’s a three-day weekend and I’m about to go party after work to celebrate the aforementioned amazing news and really THE ONLY thing that could make me happier is having one of these babies staring back at me.

Sangria & Margaritas
I know what you’re thinkin’. You’re thinkin’ HEY CRISTIN. WTF AM I SUPPOSED TO WASH DOWN ALL THIS DELICIOUS MEXICAN FOOD WITH. Amirite? You have to have sangria and margaritas mis amigos. No Cinco de Mayo fiesta is complete without a proper drink! (I would also argue that no warm summer evening spent outdoors is
Old School Tacos
You guys. My job is burning me OUT. Like I didn’t even have time to BLOG last week. I was so busy and when I wasn’t busy I was completely drained. And now it’s 2 days before Cinco de Mayo – my most favorite food holiday of the year – and I have FOUR recipes
