Monday, Monday—we meet again. And so quickly, too. How was your weekend? Ours was wonderful—and needed. Saturday morning I ran (and walked!) the Senior Bowl Charity Run. I did better than I thought I would and finished 1:10:45. It was fun but so incredibly muggy! Afterward, we picked up my mother-in-law (from a hotel) who…

Meal Plan Monday 10.19.15
Hi there! How are things shaking this fine autumn Monday? I hope your weekend was as fantastic as ours. Saturday we had gyros at Greek Fest (Baby M had some bites, too), and we spent Sunday having lunch at Panini Pete’s, enjoying some fresh air at Streets Alive downtown, and taking Bazooka to his first…
Osman’s Restaurant Review
For my birthday 2 weeks ago, Mark and I decided to try a locally-loved, but new-to-us, restaurant—Osman’s. [source] Osman’s has been in business since 2000, and it’s family owned and operated by Bosnian immigrants. Tucked away in what I’d describe as an odd location (it’s not in the best part of town), the restaurant is…
Meal Plan Monday 02.02.15
Monday again?!! As they always do, this weekend went by too quickly, but what can you do? One thing that makes the week a bit easier is meal planning. Last week we only deviated from our plan once (instead of thawing out some soup and fixing grilled cheese, we threw together a fried rice bowl…
Meal Plan Monday 05.19.14
Happy Monday! I feel that referring to today as “happy” is perfectly acceptable since next Monday is Memorial Day and most of us have a 3-day weekend awaiting us. It’s been a few weeks since I shared my last weekly meal plan, so I thought I’d pop in today with some of the dinners we…
Bistro Escoffier: Je t’adore! (A Review)
This past Saturday night, Mark and I celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary. We’ve been longing to try something new (although we love our tried-and-true Mobile favorites), so when I first read about Bistro Escoffier in January, I knew it was next on our list. A little background for you: the only true French meal I’ve…
St. Patrick’s Day 2014 + Cheater’s Shepherd’s Pie
Hi friends! I hope everybody is wearing their green and sipping a frosty, festive-colored beer for me! 🙂 Even though I have just a small bit of Irish ancestry, I love any excuse to dress up, eat delicious food, and party with good friends. Though today I was back at work, this past weekend was…
Roasted Buttercup Squash with Cinnamon-Spiced Millet
Whoa, there—could I really be posting a recipe? Could this actually be a food-centered post on what I tend to label as a food blog? By golly, it is! Although this fall-inspired dish is sinfully simple, it is, in fact, a legitimate recipe. Inspired by Gena’s roasted acorn squash with cinnamon-scented quinoa, this nutritious meal…
