I call this home base pad thai because it’s the safe house. The starting place. The jumping point for all other fun variations. Toss in some shrimp for shrimp pad thai. Add some bean sprouts for veggie pad thai. See? Home base.

There were two things I wanted like mad that were off limits during my pregnancy: over-easy eggs and a good deli sandwich. I ate a good sandwich with amazing peppered turkey just days after delivering Milo, and I could hardly wait to have my first “dippy” egg. Maybe it’s just my grandma who calls soft-cooked [...]

Based on what’s been posted on the blog this year, there’s a pretty good chance you believe we aren’t eating around here. I promise: we are. What are we eating? Well, lots of simple things.

So, if that meant going with the boy who shouted from across the room in the middle of class one day “HEY EMILY, WANT TO [...]

 I’m not much for traditional potato salad (I usually find it too mayonnaise-y), but this is a delicious salad that happens to have potatoes in it. Better yet, it makes use of some of summer’s tasty produce and the lemon finish keeps things light and bright.

This was SO good. I hesitate to say this next thing because I fear some of you will hear the words I’m about to say and run off in the opposite direction. Which would be a shame, because these were delicious! Okay… Here it goes: these tasted almost like curly fries. Confession: I love curly [...]

 This is the last salad I’ll post for a few weeks at least. I promise. I don’t mean to go salad crazy (i.e. roasted asparagus salad, powerhouse quinoa salad), but seriously friends, when it’s in the triple digits (and we’re talking up to 112 degrees here), I need something cool and light.
