TACO-FY! We made up a new word on the Joy the Baker podcast this week. We talk about shortcuts, rompers & dating older dudes. Geeezzzz.
My office is ORGANIZED!!! Check out the latest High Straightenence. Hope it inspires you to organize yours.
Freddi did a fantastic job at making my Salmon Cream Cheese recipe.
Erica veganized my Angel Hair with Lemon & Arugula! Nice work, friend!
I’m starting a new series called OUT TO EAT. I’ll be showing you some of my favorite places to eat locally & when I’m traveling. Earlier this month I had a chance to sneak away for an incredible lunch at Sitka & Spruce with my friends Sarah Henry & Marisa from Food in Jars while I was up in Seattle for Blogher. I’ve been seeing this place pop up on a few of my favorite blogs and it was time I check it out myself. I’m so glad we did!
I wish I could go back in time and tell my 21 year old self that I would develop a thing for gin in my early 30s. For a long period of time I thought gin tasted like one of those pine tree air fresheners. My head immediately went to that scene in Seven. Yeah… I was such a brat every time Casey tried to get me to try some. Sorry, honey.
If I liked gin sooner, I wouldn’t have had a whole decade of drinking Jack Daniels under my belt.
Jack Daniels might be the reason why I’m partially crazy. Which is a good thing because you are here now to witness it.
Thank you, Jack Daniels.
I made this Pineapple Gin Punch with my Mexican Popcorn. Wowzers! Mint, pineapple & lime with gin provides a delightful combination.
It is the opposite of Jack Daniels. It definitely wouldn’t dance on top of a table, shout talk at people about their astrological signs or get mad when their husband says it’s time to go home from a party.
It’s slightly feminine, a bit mature, unexpected and it might have a son named Cooper.
Why is this drink turning into 32 year old Tracy? I told you…I’m crazy.
When you have an impromptu Happy Hour at your house this summer, make some popcorn!
It’s such a simple thing to do.
This Mexican Popcorn is my new favorite thing. Happy Hours REJOICE!
And if you’re just eating popcorn for dinner on a Monday night by yourself, that’s totally fine too. Don’t listen to what my mom has to say about popcorn being an unacceptable dinner. If you do eat it for dinner, I would suggest putting your popcorn in a bowl. Don’t eat it out of the pot. I’m pretty sure my husband would eat popcorn straight from the pot if he didn’t have me in his life. Wait. He’d probably eat it out of the microwave bag without all this spice flavor business. Let’s be real.
Bowls are how we stay classy. Additional herbs, spices & lime zest are how we make life fancy.
It’s also how we make popcorn even MORE addictive!
