Whenever anyone hears what I do for a living — particular the recipe development aspect of it — I am hit with the same reaction: “Well, if you ever need anyone to taste test …” And inevitably, I laugh and say “maybe!” It would be fun to always be sharing something delicious and new, but [...]

Note: This recipe is part of a sponsored series created for Fiber One. I. Love. Fruit salad. Love it. And in the summer, I will often trade a green salad for a fruit salad with dinner — something that my husband thinks is a little odd, but that my kids enjoy. Fruit salad is also [...]

Note: This recipe is part of a sponsored series created for Fiber One. Last fall, Paige started soccer. She’s been watching Will play since she was a toddler, but finally decided last year that it’s time for her to join it too. So on Saturday mornings, we trek out to a damp, dewy field where [...]

The first time I made biscuits I was in my teens — or maybe younger — and used the same mix we made pancakes from. After spying the recipe on the box, I couldn’t help but try making them — even if it felt a little illicit to be using our pancake mix in a [...]

Summer’s almost here and just about every parent I know is thinking about what their kids will do this summer. On one hand, there’s the relief of relaxed days filled with fun. But you also need to find things for them to do to keep their minds occupied too. And for some parents, there is [...]

When the weather warms up, I start thinking about lighter foods. The soups and roasts that hit the spot on frigid New England winter days are forgotten in favor of lighter summer fare like fruit, everything grilled and salads. Dinner becomes an art of combining no-cook dishes (can’t heat up the kitchen!) combined with whatever [...]

And this year is no different — so as soon as the temperatures hit that comfortable level where grilling outside can be accompanied with eating outside, we picked up some littleneck clams to grill.
