How does one with borderline Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder deal with an upcoming living room renovation and the Summer heat? They drink. Like any responsible grown-up does.
I kid. Sort of. There has to be some perks to being an adult right. Bills and booze. Again, I kid. Sort of. The thought of having our living room torn apart for a month or so is wigging me out. I'll deal. I know it will be worth it. But chaos makes me all twitchy.
Read MoreI'm doing this weird thing lately where I eat vegetables. I am a super picky eater and vegetables have never made the cut. In an effort to be a real life grown-up, I decided to suck it up and eat the vegetables.
I have been trying all kinds of vegetables. Once I got over the fact that they don't taste like chocolate, things got better. Brussel sprouts and kale are the worst things I've ever eaten in my entire life. I have tried both a couple of times and cooked different ways. They will not make the final cut. Sick.
Spinach and tomatoes, however, have made it. I am working on incorporating both of them into more of the meals that we eat. One of favorites in the vegetable rotation is this pork and orzo recipe.

We could also name this recipe "Oh crap, I need to bring treats tomorrow". It's delicious. The recipe whips up quickly but seems fancy. The cookie bakes in the cast iron skillet that has already cooked delicious bacon and cheesy hashbrowns. So much flavor. The cookie has a slight crunch on the edges but a super soft middle. The skillet cookie is both Nate and I's favorite type of Chocolate Chip cookie. And we are Chocolate Chip cookie connoisseurs.
