I had an amazing visit with an old friend in LA last week. We laughed, hung out, and ate delightful food. Among the fantastic things I am taking away from that trip is the new “pasta” idea. My friend JJ and her husband have been cutting down on the carbs in their life but, still [...]

The leaves are changing from vibrant green into lush shades or orange, red, and brown. That distinctive smell of logs on the fire hits me when I walk outside into the crisp chilly air! Oh how much I love the fall! We bundle up with family and warm mugs of tea, cider, hot chocolate or [...]
