Making homemade baby food? Try storing in a reusable pouch

April 3, 2013 By Courtney

When my two-year-old was an infant I made all of her baby food. To many it seemed like a lot of work, but I thought it was easy because I did most of my cooking one day a week and then froze it all. However, there was one tiny hurdle of making my food though, […]

Get crafty, get organized with a family menu board

February 25, 2013 By Courtney

For those who know me, it’s no secret that I love to cook. My husband claims I’m a tornado in the kitchen, but I don’t know what he’s talking about. I have several staples for dinner or holidays that I repeatedly make, but I also love to try new recipes. I subscribe to multiple cooking […]

Recipe: 5 minute chocolate mug cake

February 23, 2013 By Courtney

February is National Chocolate Month and I figured I’d share another recipe I made recently that will have any chocolate lover begging for more. This recipe is much less complicated than the one I posted last week and is done entirely in the microwave, in a coffee mug! I wish I could take credit for […]

Double Chocolate and Reese’s Cup Cookies

February 18, 2013 By Courtney

In the words of PBS’ Daniel Tiger, “Making something is one way to say, I love you.” What sound advice from the world’s friendliest cat. This year, making something for Valentine’s Day seemed to be the only thing I could pull off with a 4 week old and a 2 1/2 year old. These days […]

Just a spoonful of lentils…

December 31, 2012 By Courtney

I’m not quite sure when the tradition started in my family, but, every New Year’s Day we all would visit my grandparent’s house and each have a spoonful of lentil soup. According to old Italian tradition (I am 100% Italian), the coin-shaped lentil beans are served as part of a lavish feast to ring in […]

When there’s so much to eat, how do you choose?

November 21, 2012 By Courtney

We live in such a decadent country and society it makes me feel kind of guilty to even write a fun post like this. But, I am grateful daily for how fortunate I am and thankful for so much this Thanksgiving. Just this morning, my husband and I were texting back and forth about what […]

Keep calm and carry on cooking this Thanksgiving

November 20, 2012 By Courtney

Being a digital mom, I use all kinds of apps and technology to help make life a little bit easier. And who couldn’t use a little tech support on Thanksgiving? CNET.com is always on top of their game, and they’ve released some pretty cool apps that will help you keep calm and carry on cooking […]

Pumpkin Hummus

October 21, 2012 By Courtney

I had leftover pumpkin puree from when I made the Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread last week and was wondering what to do with it. Lucky for me my November issue of Food Network Magazine had an easy appetizer dish that would help me put it to good use. Not only was I able to make […]

Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread…perfect for breakfast or dessert!

October 19, 2012 By Courtney

Being pregnant I don’t feel any different food-wise than I do when I’m not pregnant. I’ve always been a gourmand…I love to cook, I love to eat and I love to think about what I’m going to eat long before it happens. But, I will say this, if I get an hankering to eat something […]

It’s a Pasta e Fagioli kind of day

October 10, 2012 By Courtney

Pasta y Fagiole

I am thrilled that my two-year-old loves Italian food. Not because I’m 100% Italian, because that’s pretty much what I cook best. Lately she’s loving my Pasta e Fagioli and I’ve been making it weekly for her. While she eats she exclaims, “Yummy! I love pasta and beans!” Can you even stand how cute that […]

Riley barks yes for Peanut Butter treats!

May 22, 2012 By Courtney

I decided to try a new treat for my guy, Riley, to sample. I’m crazy to think he wouldn’t like anything hot out of the oven, but you never know, he’s the pickiest little eater. Let me share with you what kind of life this dog is accustomed to. Feel free to chuckle at any/all […]
