Uncorked and a virtual BBQ Feast
I’m excited today because I’m hosting for the first time for Movies & Munchies (the sequel to Food ‘n Flix). We’re Facebook based now so check us out. I chose Uncorked (a Netflix original movie) for the June edition. You can read the announcement post here. The 2020 film follows Elijah, a young man from Memphis whose…
Niçoise Style Chopped Salad
The farm bag delivery is the highlight of my Tuesdays. Most of the recipes that they feature are great. This one is pretty darn tasty (even though all the ingredients were not included in the bag). In hindsight, I should have thrown in the sliced mushrooms that came that week. (Please note the original recipe calls for…

Today’s cocktail is brought to you by It Takes a Villa by Kilby Blades, the latest TLC Book Tour read. It’s a steamy little book set in Italy with a strong American protagonist and a hunky Italian. 🙂

Roasted Pepper Spaghetti (with Spaghetti Squash and Mushrooms)
I’m trying to be more inspired in the kitchen but truth be told we’re eating a lot of frozen (but homemade) food that was stored in the freezer, simply grilling something, or (gasp) eating takeout pizza. It’s just hard to come up with new ideas that don’t require a lot of brain effort. Every other…
