Companionable Comfort

Wednesday, April 4, 2012

Cooking for yourself? That’s totally boring…with a capital B! So when my friends brought up the idea of having a cooking night on Sunday nights I was all.over.it. One of the reasons I committed to these delicious gatherings was because a good friend, Julian Kurland, would be taking charge as head chef for the group. [...]

The moment any girl starts hearing wedding bells, it seems like there is a fluster of such as “I need to get in shape!” “I need to tone up!” “I need to be wedding skinny!” Maybe you need a little toning or maybe you need to lose a few pounds but it is not worth [...]
