Our culinary diary
One of the greatest things about having a baby (other than, you know, the birth of a new human) is the fact that everyone brings you food. We've had some great meals and treats over the past 10 days courtesy of our wonderful friends and family. The only bad thing... sometimes we can't quite finish... Continue Reading →
I think Selim has a new favorite herb. Recently he's been gravitating towards tarragon whenever it is a possible option to add to whatever we're making (see our last post - Easy Herbed Ham & Cheese Quiche). So when I said I wanted to make some herby, savory stuffed dates, that's what he suggested. I... Continue Reading →
Shout out to all the moms out there who have their kids duped into thinking the Rice Krispie treats they make them are such labors of love. (I'm trying to be you one day!) Best joke ever - Rice Krispie treats certainly are delicious, but SO EASY to make! (Don't worry if you were fooled;... Continue Reading →
Happy March! We hope this will be a great month for everyone. We're really excited about March, because we closed on our house on the first! We've spent much of this weekend over at the new house, planning our renovations, picking colors, and generally being proud homeowners! We made these potatoes when we got... Continue Reading →
In my mid-to-late 20s, there was this salad I used to make myself all the time. I'm talking maybe two or three times a week for months to years. (Katie & Terry probably remember this phase of my life well 😂🤣). I saw it originally in a magazine somewhere I think, though I can't remember... Continue Reading →
What to do when you bought a whole bunch of cilantro, planning to make guacamole for National Guacamole Day yesterday, but get home only to discover that your avocados are all bad? We were way too lazy to go back out for avocados, so decided to save our bunch of cilantro for tonight and our... Continue Reading →
As promised, here's the recipe for the gorgeous salad hidden in the corner of one of our pictures from Saturday night's Patatas Bravas with Super Garlic Aioli! Ally's cousin Emily is responsible for this dish, and we're hoping this is the first of many of her creations we'll share on here (you should see some of... Continue Reading →
Most people out there enjoy a good snack, but on Ally's mom's side of her extended family, they really embrace the snacking thing. When they're together for a holiday or any sort of large gathering, they don't just have three meals in a day. They add a fourth, solely devoted to snacks. Somewhere along the... Continue Reading →
During our years living in Columbia, we loved going to the Soda City Market on Main Street in downtown Columbia. Now that we live in Richmond, we've turned to the South of the James market for our Saturday morning perusing. For better or for worse, Soda City Market isn't exactly a farmers market in our...

I think I'm an anomaly of my generation. I still love the lunchbox sandwiches of the 90s. Egg salad, chicken salad, tuna salad? Yes please! (Side note, what makes these "salad?") I think most of my peers either a) ate so many of these sandwiches in childhood that they refuse to even glance at them... Continue Reading →
Bon Appetit Baby!
