As you can probably guess, we all do have day jobs. As much as we would love to write about food and wine full time, we all still have one foot firmly planted in corporate America to help out with the little things like car payments, home mortgages and our weekly wine allowance. Yup, just like you!
In the past, when one of us got too bogged down with the daily grind, the others just kind of filled in the gap. But it seems that in the last two weeks, we all got slammed at the same time. Sorry about that!!! The storm of projects seem to be behind us and we should be back to entertaining your pallets any second now.
March is coming and we all know what that means: St. Patrick's Day!!! We have a lot of ideas for this month so keep an eye on us!
One parting word of advice: don't try to shop for a new house and get married in the same month!!! What were Jen and I thinking!!!!!!
Just as we begin to breathe from the holiday hustle and bustle…Valentines Day sneaks up on us. With the economy and the many challenges we all face, I have elected to start a campaign encouraging people to do what I think is one of the most romantic things a couple can do for each other….stay home and cook a fabulous dinner together. You can still dress up, after you finish cooking of course!
Recently, a friend and I had a conversation about cookbooks. We debated over what makes a cookbook “good” and what makes us actually purchase one. For me, because we have A LOT of cookbooks, A LOT as in a whole wall plus some, it has to be pretty special for me to purchase it. But there are some books or specific things I recommend to people when they need one.
