Rained. On. My. Snow. Day. I just played along. If you follow me on instagram, you saw me pretending along on the […]

Bolognese, My Way

Posted on January 15, 2020January 18, 2020by a chef's wife

Chef’s Onion Soup

Posted on January 13, 2020January 13, 2020by a chef's wife

There are few things in life more comforting than a bowl of soup. When school closed early this past week because of pending snow, I could only think of two things. Lies. Three things. Fresh bread, onion soup, and I need to create my top ten (or top whatever number it may actually be) snow […]
