leftover lunch


in my effort to cook the book, i made pasta with caramelized onions and blue cheese. super good. and great the next day. and i'll tell ya - these recipes are so simple that i actually have most of the ingredients most of the time. i had the pasta and the onion hanging around and happened to have some leftover blue cheese...DONE.

summer pizza


i had some leftover ingredients from making a strawberry arugula pizza (that you need to make RIGHT NOW OMG SO GOOD). i threw them together with a zucchini and this is what happened. pretty good. just saute some sliced zucchini while toasting a thin pizza crust in the oven. take it out, top with goat cheese, zucchini and shaved parm. back in the oven for a minute and done.

senor ice cream


stuffed dog toys don't last that long at my house, but when they are this cute and cheap - who cares?

it's raining babies


two of the vintage invitations that i used for my bff's baby shower. searching etsy for vintage invitations has made me want to throw tons of parties so i can use all of the cute ones out there - like a coffee talk party or a cookout or maybe just a plain old party full of smiling faces.
