Chili is a wonderful dish, as unique as the person making it. Chili varies by region: Texas chili has no beans; Skyline Cincinnati chili is deeply spiced and also meat based and served over spaghetti with a pile of cheese on top; New Mexico chili verde is made with pork, tomatillos, and Hatch chilies; and…
Phoenix has hit a cold snap. Last week was warm, overly so for January. I was sweating in my tank top Friday afternoon during my after work hike. Last Saturday was rainy and chilly, and then the storm cleared. The last two mornings have been in the mid 30s – which has a challenge when…

Serves at least eight! Phoenix is a strange place for certain, especially when it comes to weather. For at least ⅓ of the year, it is unbearably hot, like why the hell do we live here hot. For another ⅓ of the year, we are reminded of why we live here, when the temperature…

They have saved me money wise for buying on-the-go snacks like Salt & Vinegar chips (My favorite!) and other more healthy alternatives like the packaged assortments of nuts and dried fruits. Last week was a crazy week with all the…
Originally posted 2015-09-04 12:09:13. It’s been a brutal week – I’m still drinking pop, I gave in and had McDonalds on the first day of classes, and I somehow contracted a summer/fall cold! But you know what? That’s okay. I walked 2 miles on the first day of school, I choose to eat a salad…
A long, long time ago, back in 1990, I was a young woman about to graduate high school. It was a very different time back then- before the internet, cell phones, social media, 24 hour news, etc. Though, we did have acid washed jeans and the start of grunge music. But, much like now, I…

My grandmother was many things- tiny, fierce, independent, stubborn, mouthy, and fiery. In many ways, I am her clone. One thing she was not, however, was a good cook. Growing up, most of the food we ate started out from a can or the freezer, the veggies were always overly cooked, and the meat always…
