I Am... Keep.com Gift Guide
I'm obsessed with gift giving. I LOVE spending time (both online and off) shopping for other people. I think it's because I feel like when I buying for someone else, anything goes. My love for shopping means that the holiday season is a double whammy of everything that makes my eyes sparkle: food and gift giving.

I Am... Friday Links: 11.07.2014
It's been a crazy week of sunshine and thundershowers and I'm loving it! November is shaping up to be a super busy month with lots of things in the pipeline and I'm both excited and mildly terrified of everything the coming months will bring. In an effort to not think about life for a while, I've been drinking lots of peppermint hot chocolate, eating trashy Chinese delivery, and looking at all the things on the internet.

I Am... Spam Mac and Cheese Recipe
As a kid, I was the pickiest eater. My favourite meal was plain white rice, if even that. Mostly, my mom let me get away with eating bowls of Cocoa Pebbles for dinner. There were a couple of other things that I would deign to eat – one of them was spam. Or, rather, luncheon meat. We didn't actually eat spam brand spam. Instead my mom bought Chinese luncheon meat that came in a round can with an orange and blue wrapper. When I saw my mom whip out the can opener, I would get super excited because there would be something to eat with my rice.

I Am... Grilled Cheese Pizza Recipe
When an email popped into my inbox proclaiming "OMG! It's How Sweet's Invisible Internet Friends Baby Shower!" it was hard not to get excited. I'm incredibly happy for Jessica (a dear friend and sweetheart), who has had a whirlwind of a year with her new book and soon, her new baby. A ton of people are on board to celebrate the best way we know how, so I hope you wore your stretchy pants! Settle in and get ready to look at some awesomely sparkly, trashed-up, oh-so-sweet Jessica inspired food.

I Am... Friday Links: 10.31.2014
Happy Halloween! Do you guys have plans!? Every year, I want to make myself a paper mache animal head and every year Halloween comes and goes and I don't end up making a paper mache animal head. Instead I'll be eating all the candy (but mostly the Twix, Kit Kats and Coffee Crisps) because I live in a condo and people don't trick or treat the hallways.

I Am... Friday Links: 10.24.2014 & FBC
It's been a strange week and there's a lot that's going on in the world (as always), but I prefer my little corner of the internet to be my cozy spot where nothing bad ever happens. And with that, I'm glad that it's Friday. I spent the week spending nights in with Mike and meeting up with friends, new and old. It looks like the weekend is going to be filled with food (no surprise there) and a bunch of errands that I've been putting off forever.

I Am... Chicken Pho with Zucchini Noodles Recipe
It's been a fabulous October so far: super sunny days, crisp air, blue skies, and rainbow leaves falling everywhere. But, like all good things, perfect weather can't last forever and we've been getting more and more rain. I love rain (especially when I'm inside) and when it's raining, it's like the world is begging me to make a big pot of soup. It's the perfect excuse to stay in, cozy up with a book and smell the soup simmering.

I Am... Crispy Oven Sriracha Buffalo Wings Recipe
I'm a huge fan of chicken wings and I don't really know anyone who isn't. I think eating wings satisfies some sort of primal urge we have to rip meat off bones. I truly believe eating wings brings people together. There's just no way to be civilized when eating wings. Well, I guess you could break out the knife and fork, but the truth is, if you're down with eating wings with someone, it means you're cool with being your real self. And my real self has sauce all up on my face, dirty hands and of course, a big smile for whoever I'm eating wings with.
