Aubree’s Ladies Night

Aubree’s Ladies Night

For as often as I head to Depot Town to visit Sidetrack, I’ve never tried out Aubree’s Pizzeria & Grill, which is right across the street! I am however, on their email list. I am on nearly every local restaurant’s email list, because I like to be in-the-know about local food events! Not long ago … Continue reading »

I started playing violin when I was 9, in fourth grade, and … Continue reading »

Peace Out Papa Romano’s

Peace Out Papa Romano’s

You guys! I’m so sad that our local Papa Romano’s has closed! Papa Romano’s was the go-to pizza place for the huz and I for the past few years. I used to be able to stand on my apartment balcony and see Papa Romano’s, and even after we moved, I only lived about 2 minutes … Continue reading »

Stuffed Shells

Stuffed Shells

I used to make a lot of recipes from Kraft’s magazine and website. They are very accessible recipes, with minimal ingredients that most people have on hand or easy access to, and usually they taste good! After I while I realized (well, I think I always knew but chose to ignore the fact) that a … Continue reading »
