Throwback Thursday
This just made me smile. I was Googling for old-school advertisements for sandwiches, and came across this. Can you imagine if I brought these home to sleep on? The first thing E would say is: “You’re sleeping on the tomato. You know how I feel about raw sliced tomatoes on sandwiches.”

(About) 100 Sandwiches Away From an Engagement Ring
E is 100 sandwiches away from buying an engagement ring, according to his declaration today in the New York Post. Apparently my effort to make him 300 sandwiches—and the international social media scrutiny that followed—have springboarded E into action. He’s starting to do his engagement research.

Sandwich #203–“Make Him a Plate” Turkey, Cranberry Sauce and Cheddar Cheese Melt

Black Friday, or Better Yet, Bloated Friday
After weeks of preparation, testing recipes, tasting sandwiches, and even getting the best of the best sandwich ideas from you, loyal readers, I hate to disappoint you (and E)…. but I am TOO FULL from last night’s dinner to make a sandwich. Yup. #fail. But, once I digest last night’s meal, I might make E […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
Tablescape 2013. Fruit, pumpkin, candles, grandma’s china and the ever present taxidermy. I’ve got six hours until that table is full of hungry friends. Time to start cooking! Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
Five Things I’m Thankful For
—that my man had already put our 22 pound turkey in the brine AND prepared pumpkin creme brulee before I got home from a full day of work today! —that we aren’t traveling for Thanksgiving in the middle of the crazy Noreaster slamming the East Coast. —that we have a full house coming for dinner […]

Sandwich #199—“Saturday Nights in Your Thirties” Roast Chicken and Waffle BLT
Saturday nights used to be for dinners out and club hopping. But I do enough of that during the week for my day job at The New York Post. Now—nesting with my boyfriend in my mid-30s—Saturday nights are for roasting chicken.

E and I reconnected with some cool friends this weekend.
Forbidden Sandwich #4–Brussels Sprouts Grilled Cheese
As mentioned last week, I made a brussels sprout grilled cheese for dinner to accompany E’s homemade pumpkin spice soup. Brussels sprouts sauteed in sage butter sounded like a perfect compliment to the pumpkin—to me at least.
