Yes, you read that right. We’re back! After a long absence, the four of us are picking up the books again! Our next book, which was Jeanine’s pick, is A Homemade Life by Molly Wizenberg, for anyone who wants to read along with us (our Books We Cooked page is even updated!) It’s been a [...]
Well! I must apologize a thousand-fold for my loooong absence over these last two months. The newest book was MY suggestion and two days after we decided to read Confessions, my mother-in-law passed away VERY suddenly while on vacation in Mexico. Since then our lives have been thrown into a whirlwind, and I could barely [...]
It’s been a busy few months for us. Brianne got her own blog up and running and then got a .com (Iron Chef Mommy), and then Jeanine became a vegan again, decided to start a vegan blog and bought her .com (Vegan Nourishment – coming soon!) and she’s been working on that… and I’ve been [...]

Well! We have had quite the week in this household; lots of craziness going on over here. Classes are finally finished and I’m opting to blog instead of studying for a final in the morning. I spent a few days in NY at the end of last week, spending some time with my mom and [...]

No- not our blog! But our first book selection, I Loved, I Lost, I Made Spaghetti. We all thoroughly enjoyed this book, and I think we can all agree every recipe we tried from it was aces, that we could relate to it in so many ways, and that we were all very sad when [...]

No, that’s not directed at you – any of you. That’s actually what they’re called. This, by far, was my favorite 3 pages of the book. Not because of Giulia’s heartache, because we all sit and wonder the “what-ifs” after a breakup. We all try to somehow find a backwards way of blaming ourselves to [...]

So here we are! It’s finally officially open! I’ve been waiting for a long time to make the announcement and share the site with people and today all the bio’s finally went up and I updated the “books” page. So we’re in business! There are still a lot of little things to add (links, etc) [...]

We’ll be cooking recipes from various books and sharing our results [...]
