Minimalism. Mindfulness. Munchies.
There is just something about summer that screams for popsicles, isn’t there? I don’t care how old you are. I had been looking for some super cute popsicle molds and when I came across some rocket pop molds at HomeGoods, I was sold. (They’re BPA-free, too!)
Most of my previous meal plan suggestions have started with a “Sunday” roast and then stretched the meat and other leftovers over the rest of the week. This one is a little different, in that it’s pretty meat-lite, and doesn’t start with a roast at all! In fact, this menu is extremely hot-weather friendly;...
What’s a flexitarian, you ask? Why, someone who only eats yogis! (Ba-dum CHING!) Actually, a flexitarian is someone who eats vegetarian some of the time, and eats meat some of the time.

As I mentioned on Monday, last week I held a dinner party at my home to show off my new cooking chops after taking a series of culinary classes at amazing establishments all around Boulder County. My second class—and main course—was a pasta and gnocchi-making class from the amazing Michael Drazsnzak, executive chef at Colterra...
Today’s Kitchen is a series of posts documenting my adventures cooking through the recipes from my grandmother’s 1950’s era cooking show of the same name. These are genuine retro recipes, updated (as needed) for a modern table. Have you noticed how many meals are being made in muffin tins these days? You need...
My husband just LOVES the creamy lemon and caper pasta at our local Sweet Tomatoes restaurant, so I decided to try to make it for him at home. I found a recipe from Souplantation (owned by the same company as Sweet Tomatoes), but I couldn’t bring myself to make it as heavy as the...
The name of this website, Laughing Lemon Pie, comes from a cooking mishap that has become the stuff of legend in my family.
