It's too bad I didn't come up with this recipe before Cinco de Mayo, but you know what they say...anything worth having is worth waiting for, and this skinny margarita recipe was definitely worth waiting for. I love me a good, fresh margarita. The problem is that good margaritas are hard to come by, lots of bars use ...
There's nothing I love more than mixing up a nice refreshing skinny cocktail on a Saturday afternoon. The best part about experimenting with unique drink combinations is enjoying the end result in a fancy, fun cocktail glass... Because sometimes the glass you sip from is just as important as the drink itself! I fell in ...

I was whirling around my house last weekend trying to tackle some much needed Spring cleaning when I opened up my (rarely used) front door only to find I STILL hadn't taken down my red rosewood Christmas wreath! AHHH! I felt like one of those people that leave their Christmas lights on in July...not a good ...
My typical weeknight goes a little something like this... I walk through the door at 7pm, Brett's just coming home from the gym; we kick off our shoes and glance at each other with pained looks on our face and say "takeout?", or "why don't we just go out". Then it's back out to the car for a trip to ...
Its safe to say that I'm completely addicted to brussels sprouts. There's just something so amazing about them when they are roasted or pan fried, it's almost as if they morph from bitter vegetable to sweet, savory candy. Ten years ago you couldn't have paid me to try these ugly mini-cabbage looking things, but that's ...
