I am desperately trying to go back to eating more plant-based meals – I’ve been pretty bad lately with a bunch of birthdays in the family. This has made me realize that I do like the taste of meat and meat products. Which isn’t a bad thing! I just need to learn how to cook plant-based dishes with that in ...
I think Earth Day needs a bit more appreciation! We need to spread love to all things nature and learn more about sustainability. I know when it comes to food, things can feel a little difficult. This is why some cookbook authors have given us lessons on how to cook cleaner, healthier, and better for the Earth. Let’s see what ...
One trend that I’ve been noticing lately is foraging. This is something I am genuinely surprised about, mostly because we are all so attached to technology. It’s hard to believe that getting muddy and finding treasures in your backyard is trendy. As someone who is only somewhat into nature, this isn’t a bandwagon I’m jumping on right away! I’m hoping ...

Some of us have hardly ever touched real paper cookbooks. I admit it, I have been an avid online recipe finder for years. Then once I find recipes from bloggers, I wish I had a cookbook, because it’s so handy to have it in the kitchen! I’ll forget about recipes online all the time and regret not saving them. That’s ...
I cannot wait until spring and summer, especially this year! One of my favorite pastimes is going over to my family’s house or to a friend’s for a big barbecue. The food is delicious and I really enjoy gathering with my loved ones. Typically we spend hours chatting outside enjoying each other and the sunshine. Nothing is better in my ...
One of my guilty pleasures is recreating dishes from movies, books, and shows in my own kitchen. Granted, I’m nowhere near as successful as say “Binging with Babish”, but I make do!
