Wow, it has been what feels like forever and a lifetime since I last posted (oh right, it was). My apologies. I am so excited to be kicking off the new year with the CTB Ladies again! We have a great new book that is open on my night stand…A Homemade Life (as Marilla mentioned). [...]
Happy New Year Everyone! I hope you are all recovering from the holidays and working on those New Years Resolutions. It is such a fresh feeling time of the year that often makes me pause to think about life, love and the pursuit of happiness (or where I am doing shitty and how to improve). [...]

I have one word to describe my attempt at making gnocchi…”YOWZA!!” To say it was a disaster is an understatement. I believe the picture of my gnocchi speaks for itself. I knew going into this that this recipe was not going to be easy at all for a novice cook. But I figured what do [...]

Well, as Marilla and Brianne have already posted, our CTB club finally got the chance to meet up at Franny’s and Bar(n), which, as previously reported, was a BLAST. I am a bit sad that we are all coming to a close with “I love, I lost, I made Spaghetti”, but I am incredibly thrilled [...]
I dragged Shaun on Saturday afternoon to Whole Foods because I wanted to make the “Food Club Pork Roast”. The pork loin I wanted to buy was $8.99 per pound. That’s pretty expensive when I wasn’t even sure I was going to be able to make it without burning it! I ended up buying pork [...]
