If you don’t already know, I love seafood. Shrimp, crawfish, crabs, scallops, mussels, clams etc. Lobster and I are working on our relationship, but I’m not quite there yet with it. I know it’s supposed to be so great. But the only time I enjoyed it was when it was grilled and I made an herb lemon butter sauce. Anyway, to celebrate selling our condo, we went to indulge in...
I know, such a hipster/trendy thing, avocados. But not really. When I was in San Francisco last year, there was a cute place we stopped for breakfast on our way to the conference that served it, and thinking about it makes me crave it.

My husband likes a smoked paprika chicken one I make with an orange dressing, and I like a lemony...
Those of you who follow me over on Instagram saw that after Christmas I made a breakfast hash from the leftover honey ham that I baked for Friendsmas. Quite a few of you asked for the recipe.
