Wanna know what makes me feel like I have my life together?
Making my own salad dressing.
You think I’m kidding? I’m not! Although I kinda wish I was :( lol.
Listen - I don’t know why it’s so gratifying, it just is.

Last week I made a total "throw-together" dinner on my insta stories. I ended up making teriyaki tofu and some random veggies I had on hand. It actually turned out really good and I got lots of questions about it in my DM's. So obvi...

Can you guys believe its almost Thanksgiving? I mean wow. Time is just FLYING and 2016 has been, well... interesting. To say the least. For all of us. But as the year winds down and the holidays come around, I say we embrace these last few weeks of the year and make the most of them!
Thanksgiving is definitely my favorite holiday. Obviously I love to cook and be in the kitchen. And to spend my day cooking, being around family, and sipping wine... to me that is perfection.

Can I get a hallelujah for berry season being back?
Strawberries are forever my favorite fruit. Have been since I was a little tike. But during off-season they can cost more than five bucks a pint! I'm sorry but my love does not run that deep. I mean what am I, a millionaire?

This healthy skin smoothie has really changed the game for me lately. Not only does it taste delicious and leave me buzzing with energy, it is also secretly working wonders on my skin!

That's about it.

Before diving into this post, can we just all agree that a warm, moist blueberry muffin ranks very high on the list of simple life pleasures? Like, for reals.
I'm not really a muffin person, to be honest. Especially for breakfast. I tend to reach for the savory items rather than the sweet. HOWEVER, if there is a nice looking blueberry muffin lying around, I'm going for it.

Wowzers! It's been way too long since I've been here. I missed you guys!
Between work picking up, traveling for a solid two weeks for the holidays, celebrating my birthday (26!), and getting back into the groove of things after all of that, it's been hard to find time to get in the kitchen and for blogging. But I am back. Full force. And I am really happy about that!

ATTN: CALLING ALL PASTA LOVERS.
I've got a new one for you guys, and I think you're going to like it.
This recipe was crafted over the course of many hours. I spent days testing different spices and veggie combos, sweat, tears, dedication... yeah, no. I'm TOTALLY KIDDING. This recipe came about one afternoon when I was in a rush to make lunch. I threw everything I had on hand into one skillet and prayed for the best.
