Sunday, October 31, 2010. Bright Idea: A Fall Dinner Party. Like many current trends, I am heavily influenced by the AMC TV series Mad Men. It's not only one of the single best things on TV at the moment, it's causing this retro. Transformation on pop-culture lately. From fashion to home design to etiquette, this show is reviving the 1960's- and I'm totally falling for it. Head over heels. Find a menu that featured the flavors of fall and a wine pairing guide. Invite foodie friends to select their course...

Lovely Splendid: A Labor Day meal of epic proPORKtion
http://lovelysplendid.blogspot.com/2010/09/labor-day-meal-of-epic-proporktion.html
Sunday, September 5, 2010. A Labor Day meal of epic proPORKtion. It deeply saddens me to say goodbye to the summer, which I suppose is a testament to how great this summer was to me, but shush babe-I hate goodbyes. In order to soften the blow a little, I planned a special end-of-summer meal that we carted over to the park and grilled out on the picnic table. Everything's just a little bit more enjoyable over a good meal. Pork Chops with blue cheese, grilled peaches and corn on the cob (recipe for 2).

Lovely Splendid: Get Well Sooner
http://lovelysplendid.blogspot.com/2010/09/get-well-sooner.html
Saturday, September 25, 2010. In Colorado, September kicked off with a few rough weeks. The Fourmile fire, that began in the hills just to the west of Boulder, ended up being the costliest and most destructive fire in the state's history. After a number of smaller-sized flare ups throughout the foothills and high temperatures keeping the landscape a dry tinderbox, the community was beyond ready for fall to come around and begin cooling things off. Cue: Tyler's chicken, jalapeno and lime soup. The soup is...

Saturday, August 28, 2010. Monday's redemption: Moules Frites at Mateo. It goes without saying; Mondays are rough whether you're in kindergarten or a senior executive. Who likes leaving Sunday Funday behind to wake up early and dive right back into the workweek? No one does. Trust me, we all understand "Monday SUX! No need to reiterate with a weekly status update. Now, what are we going to do about it? I don't know what you're doing, but I'm going to Mateo. Well, dear friend, Mondays are Moules Frites ni...

Friday, December 31, 2010. Year of the Tiger in review. We are five sentences into this post and I am already off track, let's just blame it on the half and half in my coffee. I have been referring to 2011 as "The Year of the Rabbit" because I want to cook rabbit for the first time this year and I think I'm so funny all the time. Wouldn't you know, this year is the actual Chinese Year of the Rabbit. Awesome. Nothing slows me down like watching sets of waves roll in. Nothing. The year of the Rabbit (!

Friday, August 6, 2010. Oh, how I've missed this. I have been busy beyond belief between job-seeking, interning, moving, freelancing, vacationing, and budgeting. Before I realized it, nearly four months had passed since I signed in and blogged about something lovely or something splendid. Why is this so sad? Because so many lovely and splendid things have been happening and I haven't been sharing. I know I've said it before, but I'm back. Back to share, back to write, back to blogging, baby.
