food is good. making invitations for dinner parties is better.




Lately, I have been having just as much fun making stationary as I have cooking.  There is something equally as fulfilling and creative about the freedom of paper that parallels the freedom I feel when cooking.  It also gives your friends something to hang on the fridge and get excited about a week or two before the party.  These days, I feel like everyone needs something fun to look forward to.  What better than a dinner party?

this is vital information.

Top 10 Hangover Cures:

10) Cucumbers – No doubt the eyes need some major TLC to de-puff…

9) Ice pack – Applying a cold compress works wonders on a throbbing head.

8) Tomato Juice – If you can’t stomach the “hair of the dog” with a Bloody Mary, then tomato juice contains sugar to help break down the alcohol in your stomach.

7) Coffee with Lemon - Lemon juice alleviates nausea and the caffeine helps shrink blood vessels that cause that pounding headache…

6) Crackers with honey – This naturally flushes the system to rid your body of alcohol fast!

5) Peppermints – Kills two birds with one stone by freshening breath and helps stop a churning stomach …

4) Gatorade – Dehydration is a major cause of a hangover; give your system a hydrating boost and replenish electrolytes with your fav flavor…

3) Bananas or better yet, banana milkshake - Bananas helps calm the stomach and the milk soothes the stomach and re-hydrates your system.

2) Bacon, Egg and Cheese Sandwich – The greasier, the better to soak up all those celebratory tequila shots and eggs help re-hydrate…

1) Advil – make it Extra Strength – no explanation needed…

Sunday Traditions.



Growing up, we always did the same thing on Sundays. I think that is a large part of the reason I had grown to hate Sundays so much. Wake up, go to church at 9:00, go to the grocery store with my mom, make breakfast, eat breakfast, clean my room, read, nap, make dinner, go to bed. Recently, I have discovered an appreciation for my own traditions, which include the farmers market, hiking, and making dinner with the girls. Last week, we did shredded chicken tacos with beans, guac, and everything in between.
