I took my first trip to Canada last year for work. And while I knew I would eat well (Thanks, Epic!), there was one cheap, guilty pleasure that I knew I would get as much as I could. Of course, I’m talking about the combination of crispy fries, squeaky cheese curds, and stick to your …
We have been eating a lot of chicken. One of my favorite ways to prepare it – and luckily a family favorite – is to simply season it and grill it. So easy and can literally go from the package in the fridge to the plate on the table with minimal effort and time. On …
On Sundays, I like to make something for dinner that I can prep ahead of time, leaving me free to play in a weekly online Scrabble tournament all afternoon. I have also wanted to go the seafood route and break out of our chicken and pork rut (Hannah does not eat beef, so that is …
There is no more cherished tradition in the Lezin-Lieberman household than Sunday morning bagels. We would all schlep to the JCC to workout (with much complaining from us kids), and then go to the one place with a higher concentration of Jews in Charlotte, the local NY bagel shop.

For you, that might be a movie from your childhood, your favorite band, or a bingeable sitcom. For me, the best way to fill that niche is undoubtedly food videos …
One of the biggest silver linings of this quarantining during the COVID-19 pandemic is that I am back to cooking for my family (minus Noah, who frankly no longer needs me cooking for him). But I have had to tweak how I cook. I can’t just make dishes on a whim, running to the grocery …
We hope you will enjoy our blog. We love food — eating it, cooking it, talking about it – and so that is what this is. It is what we essentially do with each other – Look what I made! Look what I ate! – and we are now just opening up our food musings …
Katya: I think there is a fine line between a foodie (where I hope I fall) and a food snob (how I suspect some folks would describe me). Have I boycotted a restaurant because it does not whip its own cream and instead uses that artificial canned product? Guilty as charged. But have I enjoyed …
