a little barque + a little bite
This past weekend I had the pleasure of my friend Tony coming to visit, and we had such a great time! We worked together several years ago, and now he owns two stores in Dallas, so we deal with a lot of the same things on a daily basis – you know, just “store owner” [...]

Today the weather was gorgeous and sunny, so I thought a homemade burger would be the perfect lunch on the patio. To accompany my tasty burger, I made one of my favorite sides- Garlicky Fries!

It’s just a few ingredients, it doesn’t take long, and it’s delicious {really, even kids that don’t like cauliflower like this recipe}.

I’ve always been been fascinated with interesting doors and windows – particularly antique ones. In fact, for years (and in two different homes), I’ve had old windows mounted to the wall for decoration. My dad refers to them as “windows to nowhere” – he thinks they’re pretty silly – but I don’t care because they [...]

Man, it’s pretty hard to be motivated to get outta bed when you’re staring at these two adorable faces between the sheets on a cold winter morning… This is my Sunday morning Kryptonite… What’s yours??

Moving into the New Year, I’m really trying to make a conscience effort to snack more wisely. Sometimes at work I get so busy that I might not have time for lunch until 3 or 4 p.m. – and that makes for a cranky me AND the act of heading to the fastest place to [...]
