If you’ve met Joe and I, it’s no huge secret that Mexican is pretty much our favorite genre of food. It was omnipresent for me growing up in Texas, and since Joe grew up in the Midwest… well, let’s just say that once he discovered good Mexican food in California, he’s never been able to [...]

I don’t know what it is, but so far this summer, I really feel like I have not been taking advantage of the amazing produce available this time of year. Seriously, that baked ratatouille I made recently has kind of been the highlight. I’m lucky enough to work somewhere that has a farmers market right [...]

Time for a little confession that I think every attached woman can relate to, even just a little bit. Ready for this one? I secretly love it when Joe is gone from the house. Now, we’re not talking about extended periods of time here. I would miss him too much. What I’m talking about are [...]

I’m pleased to report that when it comes to bringing my lunch to work, I’ve been doing great these last few weeks. {Pat on the back}. It really does help you save a boatload of money, and you have the benefit of eating something that’s a lot more healthful than what you’d probably end up [...]

Summer in San Francisco has lasted all of three days so far, and for the most part, I think the good citizens of the City by the Bay have given up hope on any warm weather until next spring. Fall wardrobes are appearing, and discussions concerning new boots and coats are cropping up all over [...]
