Hump day crackalacking

Happy Hump Day! 😀

Seems like the past few days I have been entirely devoted to preparing for the Jewelry Party! Well today’s the day friends! Those of you who know me well know that I L-O-V-E hosting parties. I tend to over dedicate myself to them — but I really enjoy the whole preparation process. Slightly weird, I know, but I’m ok with it.

Since this fervent foodie has to leave work early today to get ready for the ladies to come over for the Jewelry Party tonight, my meals for the day needed to be quick and light.

Hello! I’m Mary, a self-proclaimed fervent foodie and carbohydrate connoisseur. This blog is about my life—my passions, adventures, and failures—through food. I’m a bean counting CPA by trade, but my true passion is food. It is the unabashed soul of my being. The history, the culture, the taste, the experience–I am fascinated and enchanted by it all. I devote my free time almost entirely to scouting out delicious restaurants and cooking up new recipes. It makes me especially happy when I can take a recipe and “healthify” it. By this I mean turn it into something healthy and nutritious that still tastes friggin’ delicious. I love to connect with readers, restaurants, and those in public relations, so email me and let’s talk food! Google
