I believe it was my sophomore year of college when I decided to join, momentairly, our schools “English Club.” As a declared English major, I was on the mailing list for all things literary and as I skimmed the Introductory first meeting e-mail, where “all new people are welcome,” I figured, why not? So, I … More Non- Pareils
Now Playing – “Oh” – Eric Hutchinson One of the reasons I post my “Now Playing,” (insert cool song and artist here) every time, is to showcase what song exemplifies my mood while I’m writing. Today is a very joyful day. And, if you turn on the song “Oh,” by Eric Hutchinson and don’t start … More Purple & Popovers
Now Playing – “Prophecy” – Remy Zero with a side of “Chocolate” – Snow Patrol Uh oh. It has been three weeks since my last post. I am legitimately cringing as I write this. I don’t really have an excuse, so I’m not going to make one up. Over the past few weeks, I have … More BACK WITH BROWNIE COOKIES!
Sea of Love – Cat Power / Out of my Head – Fastball I admittedly have a tendency to get extremely “over-excited” all the time, but in particular, when it comes to food. If you dare to mention a really great artichoke appetizer you’ve eaten recently then you better be prepared to watch me melt … More Lemon Ricotta Pancakes
Now Playing – Bittersweet Symphony – the Verve Yesterday, I bought myself a big-time present.
Now Playing – Make You Feel My Love – Adele To know me, is to know I have an obsession with all things you-tube.

Despite my love affair with all things food & cupcakes, I could never really answer the question, What is your favorite restaurant?/ What is the best meal you’ve ever eaten? I always pondered the question, thinking back to the artichoke appetizer at Bandera’s or the BBQ burger at DMK Burger Bar, but I could never … More An ode to Tom Colicchio & craftsteak, vegas.
Now Playing – “Waking up in Vegas” – Katy Perry It began, ever so simply, on the plane. I was so engrossed in my newest book, “Something Borrowed,” (a rom-com of a novel that I had to have after watching the preview for the movie version coming out this summer), when I realized we hadn’t … More Vegas.
Now Playing – “I and love and you” / “Kick Drum Heart” – The Avett Brothers I have a love/hate relationship with Valentine’s Day. I love the desserts – I hate almost everything else. Ever since I was little, I think I’ve dreamed of always having a fairy-tale, completely over the top Valentine’s Day, probably … More Ah, Valentines.
Now Playing – “The Show Goes On” – Lupe Fiasco / “Black & Yellow” – Wiz Khalifa There are many things I loved about my college experience. Food was never one of them. I had great friends, went to awesome parties, took some life-changing classes, but I never really had a great meal in our … More French Fries. Zeta Punch. Nutella.
