Sticky Sweet Boneless Wings
Happy Friday, folks! If you asked me a few months ago, I wouldn’t have said we’d be watching San Francisco play Kansas City in the Super Bowl this weekend. But as a California girl, I’m happy to see the 49ers …
Glazed Maple Shortbread Cookies
These deliciously sweet cookies, combining the best of shortbread and its Danish butter cookie cousin, are easy to make, keep for weeks, and don’t have to be reserved for the holidays! Shortbread is one of the oldest cookies around. It …
Country Honey Bread-maker Bread
Since this is a partner post to my post on making my own croutons, I don’t want to go too far into where I draw the line at too much from-scratchness and how it’s less craftiness and more just being, …
Homemade Croutons
I may have mentioned before that not everything around me or everything I cook has to be made from scratch. I have a shelf of boxed mixes in my pantry I’d be happy to show you. But people give you …
Rosemary Balsamic Vinaigrette
This is a little partner post to the steak and Gorgonzola salad recipe I shared just a few minutes ago! One of the things I’m trying to stop doing is bunching up recipes all in one post. It makes them …
Gorgonzola Steak Chopped Salad

The Provincial :: A Mocktail
Happy Friday, everybody! And I’m bringing you happy hour – but a different kind this week. I started experimenting around with mocktail recipes and virgin drinks when I was expecting my son {because naturally, no booze then}, and I’ve continued …
Candied Cranberries
Hi all – this is a companion post to this Friday’s happy hour cocktail, because I thought it needed to stand on its own. You’ll see a few posts like this coming up, where instead of cramming all the instructions …
Crock-Pot Chicken Noodle Soup
We made every effort. We took vitamins. We ate {and drank} citrus and hearty meals. We bundled up against the weather. And yet, here we are. Surrounded by bags of wadded up Kleenex and popping Mucinex, sipping hot tea for …
Sheet Pan Garlic Butter Salmon with New Potatoes
I’m a sucker for a sheet pan dinner. Despite my efforts to slow down, we’re still busier than ever, and still trying to serve as many home cooked family meals as possible. So it’s really nice to have a collection …
A Tour of Talley Vineyards
This post was written for my original food and travel blog, which I had to let go of when work ramped up. But it’s one of my favorite interviews and tours, and it’s worth digging up, dusting off, and sharing …
Home
Maybe it’s because Scott and I have spent so much of our lives all over the place, and before moving to Virginia we lived in a different state what seemed like every year. Maybe it’s because that’s the norm for …
