The Best (and easiest) Chocolate Chip Cookies
Everyone needs the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe, not to mention the perfect base dough. This recipe from Tasty is exactly that. You’d be hard pressed to find a better chocolate chip cookie with so little work. The dough is full of rich toffee tones and I’ve many times used it as a base for other cookies. You can add something like cocoa powder or extracts like lemon to take these cookies an entirely different direction. The possibilities are really endless with this dough, so I encourage you to get creative with your flavors and fillings! INGREDIENTS: ½ cup granulated sugar ¾ cup brown sugar, packed 1 teaspoon salt ½…
Cannellini Beans with Lemon and Poblano Peppers
So, we meet again and this time it’s over a bowl of beans! Dave and I set out to make our first batch of proper beans after watching a Bon Appetit beans episode.

BEFORE YOU MAKE THIS READ HERE! We learned one thing after…

The only vegetables in my diet at the time were potatoes (but not sweet potatoes) and carrots (but only prepared certain ways). You would never convince me to eat Brussels. Then in walked Dave Brown. We were actually already friends for a while before this. He had taken me out to dinner one day (as friends) when he was having a bad day and needed company. It was on him because your girl was broke as hell. He took me to this really nice…
Press-ons have improved since the 90s.
Press-on nails: the final frontier These are the voyages of our star-studded cuticles. To continue our mission to adore our manicured hands. To seek out new styles and crystal gel. To boldly vogue like no gal has vogued before. Brownie points for anyone who got that reference and still thinks I’m cool. Evidently I’ve been living under a god damned rock because I had zero clue about press-on nails. I have no idea how this happened. I was watching Rupaul’s Drag Race last night and it dawned on me that drag queens have been clued in for ages. THEIR NAILS CHANGE FOR EVERY OUTFIT. I’ve been living a lie. My…
