When it comes to cocktails, there are only a few things I look for: gin or vodka, citrus, and herbs. Whether its a greyhound, a g&t, or a gimlet, I’m a happy girl.

I go through somewhat extreme phases when it comes to food. For example, I ate Ā brussels sprouts every week for months (maybe even years) but randomly hit a brussels sprout wall andĀ didn’t touch them forĀ like 6 months following. I’m finally back in brussels sprouts land, and diving in head first. This recipe is nothing new, … More Sweet and Spicy Bacon Brussels Sprouts
This past weekend, I so desperately needed a freshly baked cookie, that I almost walked to our local bodega and bought pre-madeĀ cookie dough. I decided to give my Pinterest board a once-over and see if anything stood out as easy and/or fast. I came across this recipe for possibly the easiest blondies ever.Ā Averie’s recipe calls … More Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Blondies
It’s no secret that I am basically obsessed with caramel & apples. It’s one of those combos that I want, not just in the fall, but all-year-long!

This recipe combines those things but takes it a … More Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars

Look at this glorious baby: The … More Truffle, Mushroom & Burrata Pizza with Ham
You guys, do not make this. I promise you you’ll regret it. This is one of those recipes that is 100,000,000 times greater than the sum of it’s parts. I barely even like white chocolate, but for some reason when it’s coated on top of a random mix of things, it becomes literal crack. So, … More Peanut Butter & White Chocolate Holiday Crack
