For the last few years, my friend Kristin has hosted a glorious holiday party for all her friends. She goes all-out, filling her friends with the warmth of delicious food, good wine, and the unmistakable feeling of friendship.

Timing is an interesting thing. A couple years ago, Adam and I bought a Keurig coffee maker with some of our tax return money and used it religiously nearly every day (and multiple times on weekends). In early October, it decided to stop working. It would just make noise, then no coffee would come out…kind [...]

I really could do significantly more posts than four, but I’m thinking you are all kind of sick of reading about the same events all over the food blogosphere! **Please let me know [...]

I’m not a beer drinker. I really don’t like it all that much. That is, unless it’s super cold, served in a plastic cup, while I’m at a Cubs game. Really, that’s the only time I’ll drink beer to drink beer. It’s a requirement of being a Cubs fan, but that’s a whole other post. [...]
