Do you know just how easy it is to make your own butter? EASY! You don’t even need one of those old fashioned butter churners or live on a farm. I got my husband this butter kit for Christmas, thinking it would be involved and it is actually really simple. We have been making our ownContinue reading “Homemade Butter”

Asian Salad with Salmon
With all the heavy French food we had since our croissant date and coq au vin dinner we HAD to switch to lighter fare last week. One of the meals we made was this deliciously light and fresh Asian Salad with Salmon, we adapted the meal from a Martha Stewart recipe. This meal was greatContinue reading “Asian Salad with Salmon”
Couple Things…
What a week. I don’t have much else to say about what happened here in Boston earlier this week other than we are traumatized, praying for those affected and all the while trying to look on the bright side. We tried to maintain normalcy in our house all week for our Little Z even thoughContinue reading “Couple Things…”
The One Fund
So many have been asking how they can help those affected most by the Boston Marathon tragedy. On Tuesday, Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick and Boston Mayor Tom Menino announced the formation of The One Fund Boston, Inc. to raise money to support the victims of the attack.
What to Wear – Earth Day
Since Earth Day is next Monday, April 22nd, I thought I’d put an outfit together that is environmentally green – whether the items are made from recycled material and/or made in a green certified factory. It’s not an easy feat, even in these times, to know you’re buying something that hasn’t hurt the environment –Continue reading “What to Wear – Earth Day”
Boston – You’re My Home
I can’t believe everything happening in my city right now. It’s scary, frightening, and terrifying all at once. But the biggest takeaway as I watched the news, read through Facebook updates, and my twitter feed is that as much fear as an event like this brings it also brings a huge sense of community, brotherContinue reading “Boston – You’re My Home”
Asparagus Couscous
As always, we are looking for seasonable side dishes to serve for dinner. Since our CSA doesn’t start for a couple more months, we thought for spring we’d eat a lot of asparagus and peas. Well, adapted from this Martha Stewart recipe I saw on Pinterest, we made this very simple (and quick!) Asparagus Couscous. We used chicken stockContinue reading “Asparagus Couscous”
Croissant-Making Class Date Night!
Last week, my husband and I went on a little mid-week date. Instead of our usual date of trying a new restaurant or catching a movie…we went to a class at our local Community Education program on how to make croissants! Who doesn’t love a croissant – flaky, buttery…delicious. We especially fell hard for thisContinue reading “Croissant-Making Class Date Night!”
Couple Things…
Hope your week was good! As you may have noticed my site was down for a few days, so frustrating. I had a little trouble with my website hosting service but we’re all good now. We got to spend so much time outside this week which was great. Our Z is just big enough nowContinue reading “Couple Things…”
