A New Patriotic Recipe! Not.
My fellow Americans, I was going to share a new recipe with you today, but I just couldn’t get on board with it. Didn’t have the gumption. There is something strange about this week- I am feeling red, white and blah. I am blaming it on the 4th landing on a Wednesday this year, our […]
On My List: Feta
Ya’ll, I have had a serious crush on Feta cheese lately.I am having dreams about eating Feta all day while on a seaside picnic in the Greek Isles. Totally normal, I’m sure.

Meals for New Parents
In the past year, I have delivered A LOT of meals to new parents. Maybe it’s something about being in my 20’s, or being part of a young, growing church with lots of families. Add to that the fact that I teach childbirth classes, and it’s easy to see why I’ve been delivering so many […]
Adventures in Freezer Cooking
Are you a fan of freezer cooking? Freezer cooking and I have evolved in our relationship over the years. Growing up, we ate a lot of meals from the freezer, but mostly because my mom just loves to freeze everything and anything (love you mom, you’re perfect!) Once, a few years ago, I had a […]
My Favorites of 2011
2011 certainly came and went much quicker than I anticipated. It has been a busy, exciting and exhausting year. I wish I would have devoted more time to the blog (I only posted about half as many times in 2011 as I did in 2010), but Oven Love was on the back burner for most […]
