I'm baack!! My apologies for taking an extended holiday vacation from the blog. Mr. Peaches and I recently found out that we're expecting (yay!!!), so I have NOT been able to even set FOOT in the kitchen to cook. I cannot handle the lingering smell of things that I used to love, like bacon and garlic (so sad, I know). Eating, of course, is no problem. Just the smell of food ... View Post
Watermelon Cucumber Salad
Meet my new favorite 5-ingredient summer side dish (OK well 7 ingredients if you include the pantry staples salt and olive oil): a salty, sweet, and tangy watermelon cucumber salad. Normally I shy away from raw onions, but they totally work in this recipe because they "marinate" slightly in the lemon and watermelon juice.

This makes me oh so happy. Today I've got another deelish recipe for you adapted from our friends over at Cooking Light. If bell peppers are one ... View Post
Deconstructed Tuna Niçoise Salad
You know how perfectly styled coffee tables are all the rage right now? I mean I totally appreciate the beauty of an artfully curated collection of gold knick-knacks, candles, and fashion books uponΒ some uber-chic trayΒ atop an iron West Elm coffee table, and I would of course love to have one myself, but I for one cannot live like that because I have a hubby who likes to throw up his ...
