It’s a windy heat wave here in the Windy City! Temperatures have gotten as high as 60* today with wind gusts up to 30 mph. I’ll take the wind with the warmth whenever I can! Before I get to some food, I wanted you all to know that the contest I wrote about on my […]

Dziekuje! Danke Shane! Thank You!
I’m letting a little bit of my heritage shine through 50% Polish, 25% German and 25% English, Irish and Scottish mutt! Holla! Now that you’ve had my history lesson for the day, I want to reiterate the title of this post and say thank you to everyone who commented about our Emmy award. I read […]
And the Emmy Goes to…[VIDEO!]
This afternoon I was on the phone with my mom when I got a beep for another call. It was an unrecognized number, which typically excites me because I think “OMG, MAYBE IT’S A JOB!!” even though it usually isn’t 🙁 But getting back to the real story here, I clicked over and the conversation […]

Terrific Teriyaki Tofu on Tuesday
Last night, I decided to make Gliding Calm Tofu for the second time ever. I am really a tofu novice, so it’s wonderful to have such an easy-to-follow recipe 🙂 The only changes I made were to use teriyaki instead of soy sauce. It was my first time using brown sugar as a sweetening agent, […]
