Caprese Bruschetta Dip

I am all for my husband cooking. In fact, I encourage it. 9 out of 10 times he comes up with some outrageously delicious dishes that knocks my socks off. And there is always one that scares the ever living crap out of me to the point of no return. Well, no fear my friends, this recipe is NOT one of those! When we had guests over a couple weeks ago and he whipped up this little concoction: Caprese Bruschetta Dip. We devoured it! The fresh mozzarella, basil and cherry tomatoes were full of flavor and the tang of the balsamic…

Posted by in August

If you are in desperate need a date night, head to Max’s Harvest, off Atlantic Ave in Delray. This was one of the greatest meals we’ve had out in a long, long time! This laid back, chic restaurant prides itself on ‘farm to fork’ and using locally grown ingredients. Max’s Harvest is situated off of busy Atlantic Avenue in Delray Beach, on 2nd Avenue. Easy walking distance from park garages, the avenue and other bars, shops and restaurants. We had reservations but got there early to sit at the bar and try out some of their signature cocktails. I sucked…

My baby started preschool yesterday! Cue the heavenly music now. Probably not the kind of reaction you are guessing as my first born is off to school but I am! My husband, on the other hand, is a basket case and a total mess! Every time we talk about it shushes me and changes the subject. So you must be wondering how we fared as we piled in the car as a family and dropped our big Lil Diva off for her first day of school. Well, it went surprisingly well for her! She was so excited she could barely…

How To: Clean Your Dishwasher

  This week’s ‘How To’ feature is all about the guy who does the brunt of our kitchen duty: The Dishwasher. I never really gave much concern to this appliance until my kitchen started to smell a little funky. I would clean the counters, mop the floor, wipe down the inside of the cabinets, even deodorize the disposal, but we still smelled the funk. So, during one of the many daily internal conversation I have with myself, I asked myself, “Self, what is the one thing I never clean – ding ding ding! My dishwasher.” Maybe he (yes, my dishwasher…

9 Reasons Why You Must Go To Los Angeles

  If you are looking for a freaking awesome weekend getaway, I’ve got one place that you need to visit. The fabulous, unique and one of the most absolute beautiful places you’ll ever step foot: Los Angeles. My husband and I traveled cross country to LaLa Land for a long weekend getaway with out the kids and at first I was a bit skeptical of traveling that far for a short amount of time. What the hell was I thinking! It was the perfect destination for the kind of relaxing, fun and quick trip we needed to recharge our batteries from…

30-Minute Chicken Sausage with Apples & Onions

  I am all about the easy dinners so anything I can make in 30 minutes or less is a win for me. About a year ago, I was going out one night and decided to be a nice, little wifey and cook my husband dinner before I went out. I know, I know, ‘Wife of the Year’. I found chicken sausage with apples and cooked them up with some apples and onions. I was getting texts all night from him saying how great it was and he still talks about it a year later. So, after many months of…

How To: Block Someone on Facebook Without Unfriending

  OK, let’s be honest here….how many of you out there have scrolled through your Facebook feed and rolled your eyes at a friend’s (or 5 friends) status that was either a huge TMI moment, over-sharing kid pictures, professing love for his/her significant other, or yet another “I went to the gym! and I then ate this (with a picture, of course)!” post? Instead of getting pissed off and wanting to throw your phone or computer at the wall to shatter it in a million pieces so you never have to read them again, the brilliant people at Facebook have…
