Life, food and all that's good!

September 12, 2022

Hi, I'm Melanie and sometimes I write a blog! Thanks for being here!

I love this book! The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry A Novel

Listening to Taste: My Life Through Food by Stanley Tucci

This Jarlsberg Cheese Dip looks yummy! I bet it would be great on a turkey sandwich!

Spicy Everything Cheddar Biscuits!! WOW!

Let’s talk pizza! I love to make my own pizza from scratch, but I also LOVE to have someone else make it! I just bought a Baking Steel after reading about it and watching countless Instagram videos. I’ll be sure to post pictures and my own videos in the coming days!

I pre-ordered a copy of the new Smitten Kitchen cookbook. Her cooking videos on her blog are great, as well as her recipes. She cooks in a tiny NYC apartment!

Tried the Birria Tacos at Barrio KC in Briarcliff- wow! So incredibly yummy! I want to try making them at home. This recipe looks easy enough with the step-by-step photos (much appreciated!)

Adding this recipe for Beef Ragu over Papardelle Pasta to my dinner line up and also this One-Pot Stovetop Nashville Hot Chicken - oh my!

I love my new Apple Watch band! At $14.99 what’s not to love?! It’s very comfortable and stylish - win win!

Glossier’s new Ultralip is divine! I may need all the colors! They describe it as the cashmere (sweatpants) of lipstick - I couldn’t agree more :)

Speaking of Glossier…. The Invisible Shield sunscreen is always an important part of my morning routine. It also smells really nice!

It’s good to be back! Thank you for your feedback and words of encouragement. Happy Monday!
