Raspberry and Strawberry Quarantine Cake
Happy birthday to me! You know we’re all in quarantine this year, so I had to make my birthday own cake. Honestly, I didn’t mind at all because my cake turned out bomb!

The Best (and easiest) Chocolate Chip Cookies

The possibilities are really endless with this dough, so I encourage you to get creative with your flavors and fillings!

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. It’s something Dave has always wanted to try, but also wondered if all that work was worth it for, well, beans. The good news is it’s 100% worth it! So, Dave decided to do his own take on beans and create a recipe that reflects our tastes. This recipe may be a bit time consuming, but it makes a large batch that’s even better as leftovers. BEFORE YOU MAKE THIS READ HERE! We learned one thing after…
Spicy Pomegranate Brussels Sprouts
If you could’ve known me six years ago you would understand the gravity of me making a brussel sprouts recipe. I mean, I was so fucking picky. 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…
