Hi, I'm Rachel.

A few years ago I could barely boil water.

True story.

Determined to be a kick ass wife, I developed a love for football and learned to cook in my tiny Jersey City kitchen. I spend my days working in Manhattan, my nights and weekends chasing after a rambunctious toddler, and the hours in between cooking with my husband and feeding my TV habit...oh, and I blog about it all!

Happy Friday!

 

{i cheated on dunkin' with an eggnog latte. my wallet hates me.}

It's Friday once again. I don't have five things for you this week because, well, I just couldn't get it together to make it happen. I did collect a great bunch of links that I loved this week and I hope you'll enjoy them too. Tonight we plan to get our christmas tree and spend the weekend in and around Jersey City doing lots of holiday things, with a viewing of Elf mixed in for good measure. Despite the poor weather forecast for tomorrow, we are planning to take P to Sesame Place for their Christmas spectacular. Here's hoping it all goes smoothly!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
