I had the best breakfast yesterday – it was so flavorful and tasty, I might just fix it again today.  I used one of my naan breads as the base for breakfast pizza.  I scrambled egg whites with jarred roasted red peppers.  I put a teaspoon of Sabra red pepper hummus on the bottom of the naan, then topped it with baby spinach, the scrambled...

It seems lately like my life has been like the movie Groundhogs Day – wake up, blog, go to work, come home, cook food, watch t.v., go to bed.  Rinse and repeat.  So when Hannah discovered that she had asked for this past Saturday off a couple months ago, she asked if I wanted to meet her for lunch.  Um, yes please!  While I feel...

All week we had rainy, overcast weather.  FINALLY yesterday the sun came out, although it didn’t last long.  I drive past this tree on my way to and from work – I always tell Tony it’s my favorite tree.  He just thinks I am crazy to even declare that I have a favorite tree!  In a few days all the leaves will be gone.  It’s...

Lentil Bolognese You will want to add this lentil bolognese to your meal plan – perfect for meatless Monday! I can’t remember the last time I made an English muffin sammie for breakfast!  My store had English muffins on sale for .89 cents a package, so I couldn’t pass that up.  Mine had egg white, baby spinach, a slice of deli roast beef and Cabot...

I was going to walk a bit before work yesterday, but it was raining.  Although this morning I thought to myself “why didn’t you just put a jacket on with a hood on and suck it up?!”  Ha! Breakfast was two blueberry lemon pancakes and two pieces of sausage – so quick and delish.  I love that you can make a whole batch of pancakes...

It was one of those perfect crisp fall mornings yesterday.  Sun was shining, white clouds and a chilly 44 degrees.  One of my favorite things to do is ride with the windows down, but have the heat on in the car – it’s the perfect combination!  All that crisp air blowing my hair around made me feel so alive! I took the back roads to...

You know how you see a recipe, and you think, “I am totally making that soon!”  That’s how I felt about Renee’s baked eggs with a spicy habenero sauce.  I’ve known that dish to be called eggs in purgatory, but either way, its eggs that are baked in a spicy tomato sauce.  You can dip toasted bread in the sauce along with the eggs.  Yum! ...

I think it’s safe to say that most men don’t want to know, talk about, hear complaints about cramps, etc.  But no one more than my husband.  I, of course, would never send him to the store to buy them, but I left a message on our answering machine saying “I am stopping by to pick up tampons on my way home from work, do...

Since I didn’t grocery shop, I’ve been trying to think of things to put together for my breakfast and lunch this week.  I realized I had three remaining breakfast tacos in my downstairs freezer – score!  I defrosted them in the microwave first, then put them in the toaster oven at work.  In looking through my pantry, I found this hot sauce.  Not sure when...

So there is one clear difference when Tony is not home and I am home by myself.  Mind you, that doesn’t happen very often.  Even with a household of two people, I think I can count on one hand how many times in recent months I’ve been home alone.  You see, Tony LOVES t.v.  He loves movies, sports, MMA – you name it.  From the...
