Fall Vegetable Saute
Cooking with someone else offers a fascinating window into their brain! The other night Dad and I sat down to make chicken piccata and I couldn’t help but chuckle at the variation in how we approach dinner preparation. Prior to cooking, Dad sensibly read through the entire recipe, pre-chopped all of the vegetables and organized […]
Chicken Piccata
Chicken piccata is one of those comfort food dishes that tastes best after a long, hard day. Thank goodness Dad and I had plans to cook piccata together because after this wild day I was in need of some comfort! When I rolled over on Thursday morning and saw 9:00am blinking on the clock I […]
Lemon Basil Chicken Quinoa Bowl
Dinner time feels a bit different now that there is another little being living in the house with us. For starters we are preparing and eating dinner far earlier than ever before. Previously we were the type to start cooking in the 7 range when we both were home from work and would eat […]

My heart is full after a weekend dedicated to their partnership – past, present, and future. This picture embodies how much fun we had throughout the whole weekend (that’s me on […]
Shrimp Summer Rolls
Today I am back at work after the most spectacular bachelorette party on Martha’s Vineyard. One of my best friends, Carolyn, is someone who is driven, passionate, and most importantly she knows how to get down on the dance floor. She goes out of her way for those that she loves and it was no […]
Pesto Gnocchi
It’s Marathon Monday here in Boston, a day where the city pauses and the entire 26.2 mile race course is filled with cheering crowds. Today the weather for the marathon was abysmal, but that didn’t stop runners from charging ahead. Many folks in Boston have a specific intersection that they call their own for watching this race, but […]
Every Veggie & Tomato Soup
After a marathon day of meal prep this past weekend, our freezer is now full. Well – my friend’s freezer that is. In about a week she will be having her first baby (!!) and so a few of us spent the day putting together small meals that they can pull out of the freezer […]
