The randomness that is my life!
It's been delayed, but looks like fall has finally arrived in Charlotte! Which means, it's soup season. I guess chili isn't technically soup, but it's soup-like, so it fits the bill. Last week while at Aldi wandering around the aisles, I picked up a chili seasoning packet and all the ingredients needed to make chili.... Continue Reading →
To know me is to know that I LOVE lemon flavored anything desserts. Social media algorithms have also figured this out and lemon desserts are always popping up in my feeds.

Happy New Year y’all! The calendar has changed, but what remains the same is my love for good food!

Almost as much as I love to eat, I love to try new recipes. Especially the ones I can make and have plenty of lunch leftovers! This week, that meal was chicken fried rice! It was a little labor intensive for a weeknight meal for me because I love a quick one pot meal, but... Continue Reading →
This sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but my Brazilian and Colombian friends, and a random Mexican cashier told me how to make black beans. I combined all of their recipes to make my own and they turned out delish for my first time! I had the best black beans I've ever tasted... Continue Reading →
Yesterday we got more than a little snow in Charlotte, so it was the perfect day for comfort food. I went for potato soup. Every time I make it, I swear it was my best batch yet, but omg it was/is so good! Here's what you need: 4-5 small russet potatoes 1 package of bacon... Continue Reading →
