A few days ago, Josh messaged me at some point in the morning asking if I would come over and do some cooking because he hadn’t had good food in a while. While I lay there wondering what to make, my mind was going about a million miles an hour and still nothing came to me. Then, just as the tendrils of sleep started to creep back over me (it was early), I got it.  Continue reading →

Friday night dinner dates are the best. Especially if you’re a foodie. You can either go to the restaurant you and your sweetie have frequented a bunch (ours is Moe’s Southwest Grill. Burritoes are the best go-to), or you can try something new. It doesn’t really matter where you end up, so long as the food is delicious and you’re with good company. Continue reading →

Lately, my own kitchen has been closed. Not due to lack of demand, however (as there will always be one person who wants my cooking). No; lately I’ve been very busy. Wednesday, when I wrote last, I ended up doing a bit of cooking (which I’ll discuss later). Thursday, I indulged in good company and good food at TGIF.

Over the weekend, when I should have been out, I decided to stay in for the evening, Saturday and Mom took us to Olive Garden for dinner. Overall, it was a week of wining, dining, grilling, and indulging. Continue reading →
