Everyone loves cake, and I'm definitely no exception. I come from a family that's big on New York style cheesecake. Being from New York, we've had our share of good cheesecake, and I grew up helping my mother bake it for my father every year on his birthday. When I was 16, I found a... Continue Reading →
Growing up, I had a very weird relationship with Hamburger Pie, which my mother always called it, despite the fact that it was always topped with cheese. It was one of my grandmother's favorite foods, and my father absolutely hated it. After my grandmother passed away, you'd think that the inappropriately named Hamburger Pie would...

Summer is here, which means it's officially ice cream season! According to my family, there is no bad time to have ice cream. Growing up, my parents were always big on dessert, which was eaten every night. There was always a pint of Haagen-Daaz ice cream in the freezer for hot summer days, and half... Continue Reading →
Sorry for the late update! I fell down the rabbit hole recently getting lost in Italy. I spent a month travelling around Europe, but spent most of the time in Italy, getting lost in the streets of the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum. It's a beautiful city and I highly recommend it - just make... Continue Reading →
I love snack foods, my all time favorite being BBQ Black Bean Bearitos. Sadly, I'm a bit of a low carb kick now which means that they are unfortunately out of my diet with a whopping 13 carbs per ounce. My nutritionist wants me on only 14 carbs per day, which means just one handful... Continue Reading →

Lately I've been working on cutting meat out of my diet, so this definitely helps to satisfy that craving for a burger without sacrificing any... Continue Reading →
I love baking. It's a great way to take a few mundane ingredients and turn them into something amazing. I've been told over and over again that baking is like a science: you have to follow the recipe to the letter and add in everything exactly as stated or your final product will be a...

I love potato chips, or any kind of chip, really. I like crunchy foods, the crunchier the better. When my husband accidentally burned a batch of carrot fries, I happily munched on burnt sticks of charcoal (with a side of BBQ sauce, of course!) The satisfying bite and the crunchy texture has always appealed to... Continue Reading →
I've been on a bit of a doctor-induced low carb kick lately, and it's honestly not as bad as I thought that it would be. Sure, not being able to bake is a big downside for me, but the upside is that I can still eat my eggs, and if you've visited this blog before,... Continue Reading →
I absolutely love Egg Drop Soup. When I was a little kid playing on the soccer team, my mom used to yell out the name of a local Chinese restaurant (one of the nice sit-down places too) in the hopes that I would score a goal. If I did, we would go there for dinner... Continue Reading →
