In Boston...
Until Friday for a wonderful professional conference. I even had the opportunity to showcase my research tonight, which was very exciting. Plus, I love Boston and had so much fun when I was here last summer with Slip. Perhaps more important than the conference? My tasty to-do list (short and sweet):
Lobster roll. Please. Thank you.

Crock Pot Winner: Chicken Tacos
Today I tossed a few things in the crock pot— 5 ingredients to be exact— and made the easiest, and one of the tastiest, dinners we’ve had in a while. I found this recipe on Pinterest and have seen it circling some of the food blogs. My schedule has been crazy busy lately (hence the lack of posting), but this could be easily made any night of the week. I highly recommend it!

Today I graduated!
Pop the champagne! Pass the cupcakes! And then I will crash, because it has been a long 3 years… but now I’m officially MSW, MPH! Yippee!

Woohoo!!!
Today I turned in my very last piece of school work— onward to graduation!! In a little over a week I’ll finally be graduating, after three years, with an MSW and MPH. To celebrate, I’ll be eating a delicious meal with my family at Talula’s Garden— I can’t wait. As a little pre-celebration last night Slip and I went out to dinner at Buddakan, somewhere...

It's that time of year...
For matzoh brie. My favorite Passover-season breakfast, which is simply scrambled eggs with pieces of matzoh folded in (be sure to soak the matzoh in lukewarm water first. squeeze out the water before adding it to the eggs). You can make it savory (salt and pepper, veggies) or sweet (green apples, cinnamon sugar). And this morning was a morning for a big cup of coffee and matzoh brie!
Good...

Burrito Bowls
Dinner tonight. All my favorite burrito ingredients sans shell. Brown rice, topped with black beans and soyrizo, topped with sauteed veggies (onions, peppers, garlic, tomatoes, and corn), topped with cheese, and on the very top some fresh guacamole. Muy bien!

Pain=Weakness Leaving the Body
I don’t know if I completely agree with this sentiment, but it was one of the many signs along the road that helped me along as Slip and I completed the Caesar Rodney Half-Marathon in Wilmington, DE yesterday. It was so exciting to complete the race that first inspired me to start running one year ago, and to run it alongside my best friend. And I am so proud of Slip for running his first...

Meatless Mondays: Quinoa (Buffalo) Mac n' Cheese
This is one of the easiest Meatless Monday recipes that I’ve made to date, and possibly one of the most delicious, too. I honestly could have eaten the whole pan, it was so tasty! If the recipe is too big, consider downsizing the ingredients and baking it in personal size ramekins. It’s perfect for a Meatless Monday meal, or perhaps as a side dish for a dinner party. You can also...

Corned Beef and Cabbage
I kind of have a love/hate relationship with St. Patty’s Day. I hate that people pinch you if you’re not wearing green (and I own maybe 1 green shirt). I don’t really find green beer to be appealing, even though I know it tastes the same as regular beer. And I hated walking through my neighborhood at 7:30pm watching people scream as a girl took a nose dive into the sidewalk.

Dmitri's Fitler Square
Last night, due to the absolutely beautiful evening weather, Slip and I tried our hand at getting a table to dine al fresco. Naturally many of the restaurants in our neighborhood were full to the brim, with happy-go-lucky people enjoying the unbelievable Wednesday night air. Unfortunately the wait for an outdoor table at Dmitri’s was uber-long, but we opted for an indoor table and some...
