Let me preface this by saying, I am not really into makeup. A little mascara, some powder, bronzer and lip gloss…that’s usually all that goes on this face. It’s not that I don’t need makeup, oh believe me, I do, I just don’t like looking “made up” all of the time. I would rather look […]

Alright, alright. I know I have been a complete slacker her on my site. Sorry peeps. I have reasons. First I was off drinking in Key West(kidless). I say “drinking” because, well, that’s just what you do there. Gives your liver a good workout. Also, while in Key West, I got my super cute Whisk […]

Memorial Day is this weekend. Do you have your grill all dusted off and ready to go? I know I do. I am the griller in the house. I know, I know..people think it’s a mans job, but not in this house. Memorial day is pretty much the kick off of grilling season. I see […]

Oh, date night. Where have you gone? After having kids, date night is pretty much a thing of the past. It’s not that my husband and I can’t go out and have a fancy evening to ourselves, because we can. You see, we actually love hanging out with our kids. At the ages of 7 […]

The Silvermark Toss & Chop is pretty much the best invention ever.(couldn’t find a website for the actual company) I have had this handy tool for, oh, probably 6 or so years. It is used EVERY time I make a salad. I am not one for big huge pieces of lettuce in my salad, so […]
Asian Beef Salad with Citrus Vinaigrette
May 2, 2012 ·
“Beef. It’s What’s For Dinner.” It became the phrase we all knew in the early 1990’s. You think beef, you think that catchy slogan. Pretty genius if you ask me; great advertising. I know when some people think beef, they think fat. This thought process couldn’t be more wrong. Did you know there are 29 […]
