Easy Entertaining with Dietz & Watson

I have this deep and abiding love for deli meats and cheeses. Growing up, we always knew something was a big deal when my parents got a deli tray. Now that I’m an adult, I realize my mom was probably stressed and she knew it was something that would make everybody happy. And when it […]

Coconut Vanilla Cream Iced Coffee

When making an iced coffee or mixed coffee drink, I always think it’s a little better to use coffee rather than its smaller counterpart, a shot of espresso.

What I wish I could do over: Introducing my kid to food

My nine-year old son is a very picky eater. I was the same way. The world will not end over this, and he is certainly not lacking in the nutrition department — red bell pepper, raw spinach leaves, and hummus are on his limited list of approved foods. More than anything, it’s inconvenient. Going to […]

Keep valuables hidden while at the beach by storing them in a rolled-up diaper “safe”

Kristen Stewart’s Performance in Jenny Lewis’ “Just One Of The Guys,” Annotated
