Roasted Rosemary Pork Tenderloin with Fingerling Potatoes and Broccoli
We’ve officially made it home alive from our first week-long vacation with a newborn! I didn’t realize until we left the house just how small our bedroom and living room was starting to feel – and how much we needed some time in a new space. Over the course of this trip we learned the […]
Turmeric Lentil and Veggie Soup
Ever since we first found out we were pregnant I’ve been looking forward to this weekend during which we spent a full day doing postpartum freezer meal prep! A few of us have done this before for other friends who are having babies and they’ve reported back how helpful it was to have meals on […]
Instant Pot Butternut Squash and Leek Soup
Hi Everyone! It has been a busy winter over here, that has kept me super busy. I’ve been making many recipes from the blog but haven’t had the time to experiment and come up with as many new ones as usual. Some of my favorites that I’ve been making are these spicy quick pickled radishes, […]

Maybe it’s the fact that there is no TV and we spend full days together, reading, playing games, laughing, and grazing. Maybe it’s the fact that that there is no ‘agenda’ for several […]
Baba’s Borscht
Christmas is a time when we make many of my grandmother’s (Baba) recipes as explained by the story that I wrote in this post about her homemade pirohi. Typically for this weekend we prepare a European Cream of Barley Soup which is a soup filled with leeks, carrots, celery and barley swimming in a thin […]
Baba’s Pirohi
Christmas Eve in our family holds some of my favorite traditions of the year. Growing up we visited my Baba and Pop for Christmas Eve dinner where they prepared a Ukrainian 12 course feast that’s been served for generations. The story below contains my reflections on this meal combined with excerpts from a similar essay […]
The Kale, Potato, and Onion Frittata Experiment
This weekend we are hosting our 8th annual friends thanksgiving feast! This meal started in our first apartment, and each year has morphed to include new friends, new dishes, and new traditions. This weekend I am also celebrating the TWO year anniversary of the blog. The blog archives currently hold a barley and butternut squash […]
