Bright Farms sent me some delicious fresh greens last week that I couldn’t wait to turn into my favorite salad. Fun fact, Bright Farms provides their greens exclusively with Giant which is perfect because there are plenty of them near where I live. Now that the weather is heating up, […]
While Maggie Louise Confections provided me with the box of chocolates for this post, all views stated here are my own. Mother’s Day is around the corner – and if you’re anything like me, buying a gift is hard. I always want to get my Mom something she’s going to love […]
Little Italy isn’t a neighborhood I spend a ton of time in. While there are plenty of delicious spots, they’re all within a four block radius – I never know where I should visit. Fortunately, the GM at La Tavola reached out to me and invited me in to […]
One of my favorite things to order when we go out for Mexican food is Elote. Juicy corn kernels, slathered with cheese and a mildly spicy mayo, that’s just a dream come true. But sometimes, I find that the corn is a little too mayo heavy OR it’s not […]

If you haven’t heard of R. House in Remington yet, well you must live under a rock. This spot opened at the end of 2016 to much hubris. There are nine permanent stalls and a spot for a rotating popup. Eventually, I will work my way through all […]
I love poke bowls. Seriously, whenever I see tuna poke on the menu I order it. As a part of dinner, I decided I would try making my own version of poke and serve them in ‘happy spoons’ to keep it light. Going into this meal, I had […]
