What are you up to this weekend? I am so excited for a Girls Night Out I have planned for tonight with my college friends…don’t wait up! We’re leaving husbands, kids, and babies at home and spending the night in Newport for some fun – if the weather stays warm, I think I’ll wear oneContinue reading “Couple Things…”

Gimme a Beet
Don’t you just love beets? We are big fans in our house. We got beets in our weekly CSA a couple weeks ago and after some research, we realized that steaming beets is the way to go (we always assumed you boiled them!). So, I thought I would share the process with you because ifContinue reading “Gimme a Beet”
Easy Cole Slaw
Cole slaw is one of those yummy, summertime side dishes you get when you’re at a restaurant with fish and chips, a lobster roll, or maybe even some fried clams. But, you never make it at home, right? Well now that can change because I found the easiest recipe with ingredients you probably already have,Continue reading “Easy Cole Slaw”
Coming Soon – First Birthday!
I am getting very excited that someone is turning ONE exactly 2 months from today. We have decided to throw a small, low-key celebration with family – but that doesn’t mean I haven’t started thinking about every last detail! All I’ll say for now is that sock monkeys will be playing an important role inContinue reading “Coming Soon – First Birthday!”
Sangria
Don’t you just love a cold glass of Sangria in the summertime? I made some the other night to bring to a friends house and realized I had never shared my “recipe” before. So here you go – just in time to make for Labor Day Weekend! 1 bottle of Spanish red wine (literally goContinue reading “Sangria”
Zucchini Bread
We decided this week to use our abundance of CSA zucchini on something non-super-healthy…zucchini bread! The recipe below comes from All recipes and has a ridiculously large amount of positive feedback…for a reason. Even with our few tweaks, it was so delicious, I highly recommend making it! Note – the measurements actually yield 2 loavesContinue reading “Zucchini Bread”
Appetizers for Dinner
Do you ever make appetizers for dinner? It’s one of my favorite treats on a weekend night when we have a movie or a big game to watch. This past Saturday night we got Sherlock Holmes 2 from Netflix and thought it would be the perfect night for apps for dinner. We made chicken wingsContinue reading “Appetizers for Dinner”
Couple Things…
It’s Friday! We don’t have much going on this weekend, which is nice. Other than my cousin’s baby shower, the most exciting thing we have planned is to sit around and watch our baby girl do the army crawl all around the house, so cute! Have a great weekend… I love Rashida Jones on ParksContinue reading “Couple Things…”
Picnic in the Park
A fun thing to do while you’re in Newport, RI is to go to a Polo match – pack a picnic, some chairs to sit on, and some wine or beer to drink and it’s really a fun night and oh-so preppy, right? Anyway, this past Sunday night they were playing a special exhibition gameContinue reading “Picnic in the Park”
Strawberry-Shortcake Cookies
We had quite a few leftover strawberries after they were buy 1 get 1 free at the grocery store last week so I was looking up recipes to use them before they went bad. I thought of Strawberry Shortcake because who doesn’t love that summertime dessert? But then my friend Martha pinned this recipe theContinue reading “Strawberry-Shortcake Cookies”
