Hello Darlings! I can’t believe it is almost fall! The Autumn Equinox is on Sunday so this week is the finale of my Summer Drink Series! I thought it was appropriate to have a celebratory glass of champagne spiced up with a bit of pomegranate juice (seriously, what doesn’t go well with Pom juice?!) Super simple, this drink is made with a grand total of three ingredients because, really you don’t need much to make a simple (mini in my case) bottle of champagne to taste ...

Meatless Monday: Twice Baked Kabocha
Hello Darlings! I refuse to believe that it is fall. I know that the Autumn Equinox is next week and that Starbucks had their Pumpkin Spice Lattes on the menu, but I am such a summer kid and I just don’t want it to be true. However, apparently my stomach feels otherwise, because when debating on what to do with a Kabocha Squash for Meatless Mondays from A-Z I somehow came up with a baked squash that tastes quite a bit like a pumpkin pie.

Meatless Monday: Farmer’s Market Frittata
Hello Darlings! I am the kind of person that tends to go a bit overboard at farmer’s markets. Everything looks so pretty and fresh that I end up buying entirely too much produce for a girl with no roommates (except Tink of course). So after I hit up a market, I have to find ways to creatively use my extra produce. This usually means (not so subtly) sneaking it into my breakfast, which usually has the least produce of my daily meals. Often I throw together a frittata an awesome breakfast ...
