Thank you Heluva Good! for sponsoring this post. I can't believe that it's already nearly mid-August! You guys know how much I love fall, but at the moment I'm still really enjoying this season, and not in any rush for it to end. We've been living our best summer lives these last couple of months with lots of pool days, barbecues, trips to the beach, and of course noshing on ... Read More
Our Favorite Homemade Salsa
It's summer. The days are long, and hot, and we've been enjoying dinner and snacks out on the patio with a cold drink in our hands, while the kids run around and play. Dinner is made on the grill most nights, and quick and simple pretty much always wins. Lately we can't get enough of this fresh homemade salsa. We've been eating it with chips, on fajitas and tacos, on eggs, on ... Read More
Everything Bagel Dip Appetizer
Don't get me wrong... I love a good appetizer anytime of year, but for some reason, Fall seems to be the season when we indulge in appetizers the most. I'm sure that it's largely due to the fact that it's football season, and because we are starting to spend more time inside on the weekends, but either way, I'm always on the lookout for something new. I like to change it up on ... Read More
Jalapeño Popper Bites
I don't know about you guys, but I have Super Bowl food on the brain. For the sake of transparency, what's on the menu is generally more important to me than the big game itself (I'm willing to bet that I am not alone in this). I tend to start planning our appetizer menu long before I even consider who will be playing. This year the game bears some importance to me, seeing as I ... Read More
Ranch Flavored “crack” Pretzels
It's not very often these days that I write a blog post on a whim, but yesterday I shared a photo of these "crack" pretzels on my Instagram stories, and the messages started pouring in! It seems lots of you wanted to know more about them! The recipe for these ranch flavored pretzels, lovingly referred to as "crack pretzels" (because they are super addicting), is all over ...

Game Day Appetizers | Greek-style Nachos
It's that time of year again... the time when weekends revolve around the "big game". As avid sports fans, we always tend to have the TV tuned to football on Sunday, but for me, all of these games mean one thing... FOOD! Appetizers and cocktails rule my world, and I love any excuse to get in the kitchen and whip up something tasty. Bonus points if it's something that ... Read More
Grilled Guacamole
I love guacamole so hard you guys. I could literally eat the stuff on everything. I've always felt good about my recipe. Like it was pretty tasty just the way it was. Then one day I had a leftover ear of grilled corn, and while I pondered what I could use it for, an idea suddenly came to mind... What if I grilled the ingredients that make up ... Read More
Swoon Worthy
It's been one of those weekends folks. Yesterday was full of visits from friends, and Christmas card photo shoots, and the majority of the day today was spent working on some serious home improvement projects. Between desperately trying to get my kids to pose, look at the camera, and smile, at the same time, and bickering with my husband about what should go where in ... Read More
