Happy Halloween! Can you believe it’s the end of October already? I know, I know. That “Can you believe it’s already” business is totally broken record speak by now, but seriously, this year has flown by. I’ve been trying to think of something fun to post on Halloween for a while now, but unfortunately my…
The easiest snack you’ll ever make: Salted honey butter popcorn
Sometimes I daydream about the grand parties I’ll throw someday when I’m a real grownup. You know, the kind of grownup with a real house, a giant kitchen and a dining room that fits more than two adults, a small baby and a 5-pound pup. I’ll wear a fancy cocktail dress and pearls — because…

We’re also on a semi-serious mission to only spring for the pre-made/boxed snacks and foods at the grocery store when we can’t make them ourselves in a reasonable amount of time (i.e., I…
Let the party begin
Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve loved a good awards show. The Oscars, Emmys, Golden Globes … it didn’t matter which one. As long as there were red carpets and fancy dresses, I was in. The Golden Globe Awards are this Sunday night, and in honor of the occasion, I thought I’d mix…
