I have posted a few easy ideas for July 4th celebrations on Instagram already, and will post a few more! None of them needs a recipe, but this giant flag cookie I thought could benefit from a few instructions. I think you know me well enough that I like to have fun, be in the spirit of a holiday, but without going overboard or creating too much work for myself. Who is with me??:)Continue reading
We are on the move again! This weekend Hubs and I are taking Anna and Mr. Picky to Boston to poke around and help Anna find an apartment since she’ll be moving there in August for her new job. From there, we head down to Long Island for our annual summer trip to my mom’s house with my sisters and their families. Fingers crossed for good weather! We will be on the East coast for July 4th for a change 🙂 I have lots of great ideas in this week’s dinner planner for your July 4th weekend parties, and do follow along on Instagram this week where I’ll be posting lots of easy, festive ideas for the 4th! Here’s your dinner planner for the week:Continue reading
Make this cake! It’s delicious, easy, not over-the-top sweet, and would be a dream for your July 4th celebration or if you’re having guests this summer. An upside down cake always looks more impressive than it is to make, so look no further if you’re in the market for an easy show stopper! Continue reading
Happy summer!! We JUST moved into our new house and let me give you all some advice – if you think you might move in the next 10 years, start the editing process today! Holy moly, it’s a lot. Exciting, but a lot. We’ll be on IG live on Monday at 5 pm PT from our new kitchen and you’re all invited!! Here’s your dinner planner for the week:Continue reading
What is it about Father’s Day that says “Let’s grill!”? I thought a grilling round-up would be the perfect post today in anticipation of Father’s Day, but also as a summer kick-off. For those of you who are plant-based, let me know if you have questions about swapping plant proteins for the animal proteins.  If you use any of the marinades on tofu, I would also grease the grill with a little oil and cook quickly – you’re just getting char marks. Also, I did not add my Black Bean and Mushroom Burgers from Quicker Than Quick here, but they are the BEST grill-able veggie burger out there. That’s what we’re making for Father’s Day!Continue reading
There’s a lot of excitement in the Salzman household lately. My oldest daughter who lives in Dallas is going back to the office. My younger daughter just got a job in Boston and is moving this summer. Mr. Picky, my youngest child (and who truly can no longer be considered “picky” by most standards), has just completed the 11th grade! And, as many of you know, we are moving this week! It’s a house just a mile away, and I will take you with me. However our LAST Instagram live from this kitchen will be on Monday!
Here’s your dinner planner for the week:Continue reading
Nevermind we’re barely into June, I am just jumping on the summer train and I am planning to stay on it for as looooong as possible! Be prepared to see a lot of tomatoes, basil, corn, peaches, summer squash, blueberries, and melon in the near future. That’s all I want to eat between now and October.Continue reading
