To New Year’s Resolution or Not?

In Uncategorized, Whole30 by Bernie2 Comments

With the New Year only a few days away, this is the question on everyone’s minds… to New Year’s Resolution or not? The biggest problem I’ve had in my past with New Year’s Resolutions is that I think I will be able to do something for 30 days and then it will just be a habit, a no brainer to …

Drunken Eggplant Noodles

In Uncategorized by BernieLeave a Comment

Nothing paints a better visual in my mind then when I think about drunken noodles. I can just picture long, fat cartoon noodles dancing around, sloshing their drinks all over the place, yelling slurred words to their fellow drunk noodles. Or later, they’ll just be totally hungover seriously regretting their choices like most people do when they have to spend an …

Pumpkin Spice Almonds & Pecans

In Appetizers, Desserts by Bernie2 Comments

Fall is here! Sort of. We’re still having a few weird 70-80 degree days here in Colorado. The leaves all around Colorado are definitely in fall mode with vivid yellow, burnt oranges and reds scattered all over the place. If I had to choose, pecans are probably my favorite type of nut. The texture is light and chewy but not too …

Wedding Recap

In Lifestyle by BernieLeave a Comment

We tied the knot in beautiful Genesee, Colorado at The Pines at Genesee on August 12, 2016 after being engaged for almost two years. It was just the right amount of time for an engagement to last, lots of time to plan every detail, over-analyze (I deserve a gold medal in this), change our minds a handful of times and finally settle …

Rosemary Sage Breakfast Potatoes

In Breakfast, Side Dishes, Veggies, Whole30 by Bernie2 Comments

My favorite breakfast in the world is fried eggs and potatoes. The combination of warm, crisp potatoes and the runny creaminess of the yolk add a depth of flavor and texture that just melts into your taste buds. The rosemary and sage gives these potatoes a very earthy flavor that compliments eggs, bacon and sausage well, but they can also stand …

There’s been so much that I want to say this summer and especially in the last month, but I have just been wanting to hold onto all of the moments for awhile before blogging about them. This summer went by in such a whirlwind that I barley had time to think about all the recipes I wanted to create and all …

Lake Powell Recap

In Uncategorized by Bernie1 Comment

If you’ve never been to Lake Powell you must know that the pictures can’t come close to the breathtaking beauty that surrounds you there. The sheer magnitude of the rocks that surround the lake is impossible to scale in a picture. In some spots they are probably hundreds of feet tall and looking up to the top can make you feel …

Lazy Summer Squash

In case anyone is concerned, I survived my Bachelorette weekend over Memorial day! I realize I have been MIA since then, but don’t fear I am alive and well. It took me a few days to get over the champagne hangover but I have recovered. To say the most cliche thing possible, it was the most incredible weekend I could’ve ever …
