The other day I made chicken fajitas and of course the only side dish I could think to make with those is rice.  So sticking with my pledge to eliminate boxed, pre-packaged foods from our lives, I found a great recipe to make my own Mexican rice.

Well another day, another awesome chicken recipe.  As you may not know about me is that I’m a chicken fanatic.  But plain, simple chicken can get very boring after a while.  So, I’ve been forcing my husband and I to try some new flavors.

I’m pretty pathetic, it doesn’t take very much to get me excited.  I found these really cool kitchen canister labels on Etsy last week and ordered myself a set.  They came today and they are so cute!  I was so excited about my find that I couldn’t wait to share it with you.

Yesterday I happened to be having extreme chocolate cravings that we as lucky women get to have once a month.   Luckily I always keep chocolate chips on hand for just such as occasion. I kept coming across these blondie recipes here and there and it had been something I’d never had before.  So today seemed like the perfect time to make them.

June 22, 2010 0 comments

I’m a huge fan of the Food Network show Ace of Cakes.  We very rarely miss any of the episodes.  The cakes they create are absolutely fantastic.  It’s hard to believe how they can replicate things in cake and make them look so real and lifelike. I was excited yesterday to learn that Duff Goldman now has his own line of  cake decorating products!
