When I was a kid, we would go out for Italian as a family whenever we were out of town. Often, my parents would get the tomato basil pasta. (Like every time) So, in honor of tomato season, I decided to try my hand at my own version. With peak season ingredients, the sauce doesn’t…
So, I have beets for you today, which I’m sure is disappointing for many of you, but please, hear me out. These beets are peeled and sliced thinly. Then, roasted in a hot oven. They’re served with a drizzle of honey and sprinkling of goat cheese. The combination is addictive. Really. I swear. Here’s some…
Like many 30-something mothers, it can take me a while to hit up the new hot spots in Kansas City. And while I’m far from the first to get there, I still love discovering great places to shop and eat. In this blog series, I’m sharing some of my favorite new-ish spots in KC. Bob…
Yep, that’s steak. It’s so good that if you make it men and women will weep at your feet. Plus, since it’s flank steak, as opposed to a more expensive cut, it won’t break the bank and can be on your table in under 30 minutes. So, grab a box of kleenex, and let’s get…

This recipe is crazy easy, but with fresh, in-season tomatoes, the results are addictive. In it, I used just a little jalapeno, because I am a wimp. Feel free to scale the heat level up by adding more or leave it out if that’s not your thing. Stir this together soon for some of your…
So, for some reason, there were like zero short sleeve tops again this year. Ok, I take that back. There were lots of t-shirts this summer and shirts with open backs and flowy, boho numbers, but your typical “work/casual” top was sort of non-existent. You can imagine my delight when I found four, really great,…
Today, I’m sharing four, new movie reviews from our AFI Top 100 Movie project. You can find each of our his and hers reviews here, but for those of you who aren’t familiar with the project, Keegan and I are working our way through the American Film Institute’s 100 Greatest American Films of All Time…
