So this year I decided that I wasn't going to slave over the stove for hours on Christmas Day making a knockout dinner.  Instead I was going to make a simple but tasty meal that didn't require a lot of energy and time. Or so I thought. Unlike Thanksgiving, I didn't spend ...

There are certain staples that I must have stocked in my kitchen at all times. If you haven't tried these garlic cubes by Dorot, you MUST run to your nearest Trader Joe's and pick some up. They are so handy!! Fresh garlic in seconds without any mincing or garlicky fingers.  A ...

Tarnishing Ree’s Good Name

Bring It On, Rach

5.15.10

I could give Rachael Ray a run for her garbage bowl.  She might make 30-minute meals, but I'm the queen of 20-minute meals. The window of time I have between when I walk in the door from work and when my middle child is going to pass out from hunger ...
