I used my immersion blender the other night to make mashers with a little butter and some greek yogurt. They were amazing, just steer clear of liquid and you should be fine.
My husband and I spent our first year together in a loft with no walls (except the bathroom). While we ocassionally were left wanting for privacy, we had a blast. In fact, after we moved to a big...
I made this for dinner tonight and it was awesome. The cheese melted right into the sauce, so I missed out on that melty cheese texture, but the flavor was fantastic!
I guess I’m a bit of a prude, but I’m hung up on the fact that a discussion on the ‘ethics’ of shopping (and paying for) items from a big box store is being moderated by a w...

I think a bright coral would look great with the couch and lamp colors.
And I have tissues in every room of my house, I have terrible allergies! How judgemental the lucky people who ...
Luxury in a home to me- in Chicago- was finding an apartment with a garage, a patio, huge south facing windows and an in unit washer and dryer. Granted there are some trade-offs; busy streets belo...
We are really struggling with our open floor plan. I'd love to make better use of the space, but we have a spiral staircase right in the middle of the room. We use it to delineate office space fr...
Ha! Mine involves sunglasses, a slightly chilly morning, thick nubbly socks and coffee on the deck so that you can see the steam rising in circles from my cup of joe.

I love Shoo-fly pie! You never see it in Chicago.
As a South-Sider I am crossing my fingers and toes and hoping that Rio gets it. Or Barcelona. Or anywhere but here thankyouverymuch.
