A food-loving girl raised on pasta and tamales
Have you gotten behind the golden milk trend yet? I must say that I’ve been into it for a few months now. Other than the health benefits of turmeric and ginger, I love that a golden milk latte is cozy and creamy without the caffeine of a typical latte or the sugar of hot chocolate.…
Happy Earth day! Did you know that Earth day this year is Saturday, April 22? I’ve seen a few events around town to celebrate and the national March for Science was also planned on Earth day, which I think is pretty great. It’s an interesting day in the sense that every day should be earth…
When I get on a kick with a certain food or snack I really get into it. This winter my favorite thing to eat has been roasted broccoli dipped in chili garlic mayo (I liked this brand). It wasn’t until a few months ago that I started roasting broccoli, mostly for buddha bowls, and it…
Raise your hand if you love tapas! Not just tapas-style meals which have become more and more popular, but actual Spanish tapas. I feel in love while studying in Spain during college and continue to crave some of those traditional Spanish flavors. This recipe is a mash up of two of the most popular tapas…

Myer lemons are actually thought to be a cross between the traditional lemon and an orange or clementine, giving them a more…
If you can’t tell, I’m a pretty big fan of most food. Yet, brunch makes it up there as my all time favorite. This year was the first Christmas away from my immediate family in Michigan. For years I’ve been told that after getting married I would have to create my own traditions, but to…
For months I’ve seen a van driving around the neighborhood with the name Ogre Sauce printed on the side. While curious, I often saw the van when hurrying to or from home and was quickly distracted by something else. So it wasn’t until I heard from the great people at Ogre Sauce that it finally hit me…
At this time of year with extra busy schedules many of us need some extra quick and easy dinner ideas to make life a little bit easier. I completely adore anything with curry and Indian takeout is one of my guilty pleasures. The past year or so, I’ve been playing around more often with curry…
