I wandered off into daydream land…It was as if I was standing under an olive tree in a grove overlooking the deep blue waters of the Mediterranean. It was very Hollywood-esque…

Looking for a spicy new topping for your favorite burger?! How about some onions with a lotta zing?!
So tonight I’m out on the town…I’m hanging out at the Ultimate Mom’s Night Out and will then catch the last showing of Ramona and Beezus with some girlfriends. (I know…I’m totally getting wilder as I age!) I really just want to see Ramona and Beezus so I can feel 12 again.

I made these the other night…I made an extra trip to the store to get the ingredients needed for this morning’s news segment…and spotted some $.99 whole mushrooms.

The bread…because I had no buns in the house. And ran out of time to make them from scratch.
The salsa is homemade [...]

Remember the Slow Cooker Beef Roast with Balsamic Onions?!?
Well, you should just bookmark it now and make it next time you have a beef roast on hand. Or better yet, toss it with some pasta and might I say you won’t regret it!
I used up a BOGO beef roast from the freezer, a yellow onion [...]
