white bean and pasta soup

January 31, 2011

Living at home definitely has it’s perks, including my Mom’s home cooked meals. I love when my Mom makes dinner. Although I love to cook, it’s nice to have a break every once in awhile and have someone cook for me instead. When we were younger, my Mom used to cook for our family all [...]

Honey Pecan Granola

January 31, 2011

Last week I told you about my favorite store bought granola. I also said that I would be attempting to make this granola at home. Although my attempt was not spot on, the granola still turned out great. This makes a lot of granola and is much cheaper than buying granola at the store. Another [...]

Another snow day! Since I do not have friday classes this semester (for the first time ever) this will be a 5-day weekend for me! Isn’t that awesome!? Did you have a snow day? If so, what did you do? I made pancakes (as you will soon see) and went to the gym with [...]

The Wonderful World of OATMEAL.

January 26, 2011

I cannot believe it took me this long to finally see Black Swan. I saw it a couple nights ago and absolutely loved it. Some people I talked to thought some parts were completely gross but I really didnt mind it too much. Maybe I am just a sick freak or something, though. I honestly [...]

The Granola Factory

January 25, 2011

I love granola. I especially love it on top of yogurt with fruit or simply by the handful. Whenever I have good granola in my possession, it never lasts long. Unless you’re making your own granola, I think it’s pretty hard to find good store-bought granola. However, a couple of weeks ago, my older sister [...]

Giada’s Spicy Smoked Mozzarella Meatballs

January 20, 2011

As I flipped through Giada De Laurentiis’s most recent cookbook, Giada At Home, this recipe immediately caught my attention. I love smoked mozzarella, so smoked mozzarella stuffed meatballs sounded incredible to me. Giada’s recipe calls for a mixture of ground beef and veal, but the store did not have veal, so I substituted it with [...]

Treadmill Hill Workout

January 19, 2011

Due to the cold and snow during the wintertime, a lot of times I get stuck running inside on the treadmill. Sometimes, I’m a baby and don’t feel like running through the cold and opt to run inside anyway. Either way, doing the same old thing on the treadmill gets terribly boring sometimes. I was [...]
