I hope everyone had a wonderful LOVE day! Yesterday, I came home to a large box filled with Chobani yogurt treats.  THANKS CHOBANI!  I love that!  I am a fan of Greek yogurt….I just love the creaminess and extra protein in it. First of all, I made a very nice discovery this week in the […]

The food experience in NYC is always one of my favorite parts of visiting the city. Earlier this week, my daughter Chelsea and I found a cute cheese shop that also had a nice spread of sandwiches, soups and grab and go salads. I love a good cheese case, don’t you?  So…yum! We both took […]

Well….Happy Tuesday!  I am on my way back to Boston after a wonderful visit to the Big Apple.  This trip was a mix between business and pleasure….but since I love my career, it felt a bit more like one big trip of pleasure.  The best part, of course, was spending some well-needed one-on-one time with […]

I have been craving kale lately.  Do you think only nutritionist’s say things like that?  Ha!  It sounds way too nutritionist-like. 🙂 I really do love kale salad–especially with a hint of  lemon and topped with my mustard dressing.  I like to kick up kale with a bit of feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, some pumpkin […]

I made some Huevos Rancheros this week.  Say what??  I know, I am not a Huevos Rancheros expert, but I like the idea of layering a poached egg, salsa and cheddar cheese on a toasted corn tortilla.  A great breakfast option for the weekend, right? I never poach eggs but wanted to include a poached egg […]

I played in the kitchen this morning.  I love when I can do that! This morning, I made crepes.  Yum.  I am calling these buckwheat crepes because they have buckwheat flour in them…but really they are made with a mixture of gluten free flours.  For the wheat tolerant-simply use whole wheat pastry flour or your […]

My son Brennan has been on a chicken salad kick.  So, I decided to whip some up last week!  I would rather he take some chicken on his sandwich than revert back to processed deli meats, which we could all do without. I have to say, my German Dad was a huge cold cut man. […]

I hope everyone is surviving the holiday season… As a holiday gift, Russ and I gave to each other a trip to Portsmouth, New Hampshire for two nights to regroup, relax, and unwind a bit before the new year. Portsmouth is a quaint historic seaport with great shops and restaurants. We relaxed in the outdoor […]

I love the holiday season, especially this year. My two oldest children have been away at college, and I am SO very happy to have them home again. I really love seeing them hanging out together.  Laughing. Talking. Just being them. I love hearing my son bound down the stairs…I missed that when he’s away. I love […]
