Smoked. Buffalo. Chicken. Pizza. I didn’t know Buffalo wings could be elevated to such a level… until this weekend. I thought we’d reached the pinnacle of Buffalo deliciousness with this dip. I was wrong. It’s this pizza. We’ve made Buffalo Chicken Pizza in the past, usually with leftover grilled chicken. We’ve perfected our Smoked Chicken […]

Holiday parties are in full swing, and if you should find yourself in a rut trying to figure out which wines to drink you’re not alone. It can be an intimidating topic for many. My advice is don’t think too deeply about it. Pairing wine with holiday foods is no different than any style of […]

My favorite use for leftover Thanksgiving turkey I’ve kidnapped my mom this holiday season. She will be with me for both Thanksgiving and Christmas this year (how lucky am I?!).

This past week has been a blur. Hubby was […]

What food do you think has more variations, a burger or a pizza? This is a question I spent way too much time thinking about the other night, thus prompting this post. My first instinct was the pizza. The combinations of toppings, sauces, and cheeses are nearly endless. But then again, the same goes for […]

A few years ago a good friend gave my hubby and I a gift pack that included several locally made olive oils and vinegars for Christmas. When we opened it she mentioned she gave several other friends and family members the same pack and joked that we would probably be the only ones to actually […]

… what grows together goes together. My husband is from Rochester, NY, and I’m pretty sure that means it is required by upstate NY law a baby’s first food must be Buffalo Chicken Wings. Well, at least by the time they get teeth. Or at a minimum parents are required to douse their child’s rice […]

This has been a rough week so far. Both my kids have been home sick. Taking care of twin toddlers can be challenging. Taking care of sick twin toddlers is a whole new category of challenging. I’ve put everything else aside this week to just be there for my guys. Everything else I had planned […]
