    A lot of times when people think of food bloggers, they imagine that every meal a blogger cooks is a multi-coursed spectacle with fancy ingredients.

    Rick and Cathy’s Chopped Salad

    When we told our parents that we were recreating “Rick’s” chopped salad for the blog, both of our parents insisted that this was actually “Cathy’s” chopped salad. Since the owner of the salad is an even 2 to 2 split vote in our house, they both are getting credit. Welcome to the blog, mom! We…

    We love making bite sized desserts for a party because they can be made in advance and don’t require any last minute effort in the kitchen.
