My mom makes a pretty insane blueberry crisp. Not only is it filled with wild blueberries (one of the biggest perks of growing up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula), but it has a crunchy, crispy topping that makes me weep actual tears of joy. There's a hint of caramel, plenty of crunch and just — surprise! — salt to make...

Hey friends! Taking a respite from the land of retail coverage (ICYMI: NSale #Dressingroom Selfies // 7 Anniversary Sale Finds Styled (With My Existing Wardrobe) // 5 Anniversary Sale Dresses Styled for Day...
I remember hearing a statistic that most women -- something like 90% -- don't know what they're going to make for dinner at 4pm. As in, at 4pm they're still trying to figure out what they'll be feeding their families in two hours' time. Don't think I'm anti-feminist here. Yes, I realize dudes can meal plan, too. The stat...
Here's where I confess that, despite my passion for cooking, Lana's interest in getting into the kitchen is...still developing, let's say. Don't get me wrong -- she seriously loves to eat, and she has her moments of extreme helpfulness when we're prepping a meal or baking up a treat together (with supervision and a little direction she can make this...

Hey guys, fun roundup today! I'm not strictly gluten-free by any means, but that doesn't mean that I haven't baked up my fair share of incidentally gluten-free goodies in recent years (see these white chocolate pistachio cookie crisps). With such a wide variety of gluten-free flours now easily accessible, it's not nearly as challenging as it once was to...
Hi guys! I loved hearing from so many of you following my last post (ICYMI: Easy Garlicky White Beans + Couscous) and figured that, in case more of you were actually into the Smoked Gouda Mac and Cheese recipe that I teased than let on, I'd follow things up with a little detoxifying green "juice." Maybe you made the mac...
I know school's out for a lotta folks, but we've got a couple of months left — and even when that's over, there's still swim and gymnastics and camp and just life asking us to live it. (The nerve!) And before ALL of that gets underway, there needs to be: breakfast.
I have a friend whose daughter happily eats the...

Hi friends! Emily here, sharing my first recipe for you fiiiine readers of TME. Before we get into the details of these Easy Garlicky White Beans with Couscous, a little about me and my food philosophy.

Shana and I have this little joke that's been going on for years now. She likes to think she's a food blogger. It's kiiind of her favorite thing in the world to be "whipping up" something, anything and to narrate it to whoever happens to be in her kitchen.
For those of you who have been with us for a...
