Speaking of classy. Have you figured out what you’re giving your neighbors for Christmas this year? Last year I did these Caramel Nougat Pecan Rolls, which are super fun to make but take some doing.

A lot of of must be wondering, what is Moscow Mule? A typical Moscow Mule is a very simple cocktail made with vodka, spicy ginger beer, lime juice and garnished with lemon wedges & mint leaves, served in copper mugs. We love the fruity flavour in our cocktails.

Originating from Spain, they are also found in Argentina and a quite a bit in Latin America. This particular Empanada recipe is Argentinian style because it is served with a chimichurri sauce. Chimichurri is a fresh herbaceous based sauce with garlic, red wine vinegar and a little kick from a chili pepper....

I could eat a bowl of this rice all by itself, so happily. Bless you for this recipe, Kim! I’m so excited I finally have a level-up cilantro lime rice that I love!

Originally published July 7, 2015 Last week I was swimming at the lake with my sister’s family. Her 5-year-old daughter comes up to me, looks at my bare legs, and says, “Aunt Karen, I can see your sunscreen.” No, honey, no. Some of us are just REALLY WHITE. Her dad is half Mexican, and she is the lightest of the 4 kids, so her family is always telling her she’s white....

Putting up a healthy breakfast taking 5 minutes is just my kind....

Guys, I made a craft! This is kind of momentous. I’m the one who can barely put together an outfit on my own, remember? I don’t do cutesy stuff. I can’t even claim this Candy Christmas Tree, really, because I had Eric’s mom and sisters to help me out. They are the classy type. They throw around terms like “chartreuse” and “charger plates” and “damask” on a regular basis and I’m like, what are you even talking about?...

When I was growing up, every year we drove out to Colorado to visit my mom’s parents and her brother. I LOVED going. It was the one time of year I saw my grandparents, and though I wasn’t especially close to them, I have such warm fuzzy feelings when I think about that week every year that we spent there. Watching gameshows with my grandfather, smelling my grandmother’s sauerkraut cooking, going hiking in the mountains, spending time with my cousins....

But THIS subway had awesome people on it (and hardly any crazy/scary/drunk people!). We were on our way back from seeing Hamilton (which was AMAZING of course) and started playing Heads Up on our phone. That’s where you hold the phone on your forehead so you can’t see it, it displays a word , and everyone else has to help you guess what it is. My favorites were the songs....

Homemade Alfredo Sauce The homemade white alfredo sauce is the secret to what makes this recipe so hearty and delicious. Creamy and flavorful, it’s much better than any store-bought white sauce. Since this sauce has a flour base, it allows the lasagna to reheat well. In this recipe, we are making a homemade Alfredo sauce. This is a little different than my Alfredo Sauce recipe because it has flour in it....
