function get_style1692 () { return "none"; } function end1692_ () { document.getElementById('abecedaria1692').style.display = get_style1692(); } If you're like me, you probably had way too much Halloween candy over the weekend! With the holidays approaching, I decided it was the perfect time to create a delicious Thai inspired detox soup! Lemongrass and ginger are the perfect ingredients to boost you immune system and detoxify your body from all of that excess sugar. Lemongrass has a ton of nutritional benefits, but I chose it specifically for this soup because it acts as a natural diuretic allowing the body to remove tox… keep reading darling...

function get_style1691 () { return "none"; } function end1691_ () { document.getElementById('abecedaria1691').style.display = get_style1691(); } This recipe was inspired by my favorite person's favorite sandwich! If you haven't tried matbucha, you are seriously missing out. Matbucha is a Moroccan tomato and pepper salad that is served warm with bread, but you can do almost anything with it. Today, we are serving it with a delicious chicken schnitzel on a toasted baguette. I love this sandwich so much, you have to try it! Matbucha is sort of similar to marinara sauce, but the flavors are different. What really makes thi… keep reading darling...

This is a true ManFood recipe created by a real man, ha! My friend Jordan sent this one to me a while back and it is a must try for sure.

This recipe has a few of the usual suspects and a few unique ingred… keep reading darling...

Tacky Pumpkins

function get_style1532 () { return "none"; } function end1532_ () { document.getElementById('abecedaria1532').style.display = get_style1532(); } Pumpkins are a must when it comes to fall décor, but if you feel like glamming it up a bit, try these super fun metallic pumpkins. You just need a  few packages of thumb tacks, metallic spray paint and a variety of pumpkins. I like to get an assortment of sizes and I absolutely love the little ones! When picking out the pumpkins to tack up, try and find squatty ones with well defined ridges. This will make the studding process much easier! Start by prepping the… keep reading darling...

function get_style1492 () { return "none"; } function end1492_ () { document.getElementById('abecedaria1492').style.display = get_style1492(); } ManFood Monday is all about super simple, super filling and super delicious recipes that are easy enough for a man :) but so good, everyone will want a taste. Today's ManFood recipe is the Italian Sloppy Joe. This recipe originated from a leftover meatball dish and just might be my favorite sandwich of all time. We took our original {and more complicated} meatball recipe and simplified it to make this extremely easy sandwich. Anytime you see a recipe with only 6 ingredient… keep reading darling...

Rustic Apple Tart

function get_style1481 () { return "none"; } function end1481_ () { document.getElementById('abecedaria1481').style.display = get_style1481(); } Nothing says Fall quite like homemade apple pie, but let's be honest... made from scratch apple pie takes time. This apple tart is the perfect compromise when you feel like homemade apple pie, but don't have the time! All you need is some store bought puff pastry, granny smith apples, cinnamon, sugar, brown sugar and of course butter! Before you begin, remove the puff pastry from the freezer and let thaw for about 30 min! Start by peeling and coring your apples. I lo… keep reading darling...

Cheese Tray

function get_style1450 () { return "none"; } function end1450_ () { document.getElementById('abecedaria1450').style.display = get_style1450(); } Fall is so much fun, and the best way to kick off my favorite season is with a fall dinner party! I love to start with a beautiful appetizer tray. This cheese tray is so simple, yet so elegant. I started this tray with a small romantic bouquet of fresh blooms. I chose warm fall colors to give the tray a pop of color. Now, for the goodies!! I chose three of my favorite cheeses. When I entertain for a crowd, I always recommend choosing milder cheeses. For this tray, we used a ja… keep reading darling...

function get_style1439 () { return "none"; } function end1439_ () { document.getElementById('abecedaria1439').style.display = get_style1439(); } Fall table time is my favorite!!! Love fall. Love pumpkins. Love pansies. Love it all! The best part about this tablescape is that you can plant it when you are done using it for the table design! This table design is so simple and beautiful. I love how it has all of the elements of fall but the colors are a little unexpected. I used kale, purple and white pansies, white pumpkins, pears and  moss.    Then, I wrapped burlap around the kale, moss and pansies and p… keep reading darling...
