Last weekend after we visited the Shenandoah Caverns, we went to the Route 11 potato chip factory. Personally, I was excited because I haven’t been to a potato factory before and I planned on buying some awesome chips. When you go through the red door, you enter a room where you can sample the chip […]
When I was a little girl, my mom introduced me to the movie Fried Green Tomatoes. It was (and still is) one of her favorites and it quickly became one of mine as well. I’ve always wondered how those fried green tomatoes tasted and coming from a family who lives in the South, I’m still […]
You can probably easily find this recipe in the abyss that is the internet, however, I’d like to think I made it up…I was watching a Youtube video by CTFxC, and Alli mentioned how she’d had frozen hot chocolate in the past. Instantly my mind was like “oh, how would you make that?” Two minutes […]
I’ve always wanted to try my hand at making my very own hot Apple Pie. It seemed to be like a pretty big project to me and I would always be impressed by those who actually committed to the task and had a warm pie with golden crust that they made with their own two […]

Meet my new favorite tea – Moroccan Mint! A co-worker of mine introduced this to me and I fell in love. This is similar to a tea she had while in Egypt, as this tea leaf is found in North Africa. There, it’s known as the “nana mint”. My co-worker swears by this tea that […]
A few weeks ago, late at night right before bedtime, one of those attention grabbing infomercials came on. Sprawled out in front of the host (and creator of the gadget) was an array of veggies and fruit. He said what was in front of him wasn’t a “blender” but an “extractor” of nutrition, calling it […]
