The phenomenon has been spreading. We first saw it in Austin, TX. But it's everywhere, and Brunchbox really sold us on the idea. Mobile food trucks! God, I wish all the mobile food trucks in Seattle were all in the same place. My wish came true Saturday at the Seattle Center right next to the Space Needle for the first ever Seattle Center Mobile...

Given the abundance of apples in our home, it's only natural I spend my baking time making delicious apple treats. Peanut butter is one of the most amazingly delicious and versatile foods in our pantry (which is actually just an overflowing cabinet). I could literally eat it at every meal and snack, sweet or savory. I especially enjoy when...

Striking red walls lined with modern art greeted our entry into north Seattle's Stumbling Goat Bistro. Seattle Restaurant Week was upon us, and we chose to venture over to the west side to get a taste of another talked-about Seattle restaurant with a special prix fixe menu. The joint is cozy, busy, crowded but not in a bad way. A tall bar with a...

Boccone's in San Antonio was one of the first restaurants Dustin took me to in San Antonio when we started dating. He talked up this pepperoni/sausage pasta drenched in olive oil with tomatoes, garlic, olives, and onion, which we will fondly refer to as "pepperoni pasta" from here on out. Dustin knew I would love this dish, knowing what a...

As with the rest of Seattle, we are pretty much obsessed with Tom Douglas. Dustin proposed to me at Etta's, so that place and their triple coconut cream pie will always have a special place in our heart (I've even bought the cookbook with the recipe so we can try to make it when we don't have access to the real deal). We've tried Lola for...

Seattle Restaurant Week is pretty much the greatest thing ever. We have gotten to try some of the nicer restaurants we've been wanting to try around Seattle for pretty reasonable prices. You can get a three-course dinner for $28 ($15 for lunch), which I know Dustin loves because I normally get full too fast to eat a three-course meal. We are...

Dustin has these great memories of going apple picking as a child back from when he lived in Illinois. The thought of apple picking, warming up with some hot apple cider, and some tasty doughnuts (apparently Dustin's favorite part, which we were sadly unable to duplicate) sounded pretty good to me, so we got into our rain gear since there was...

I think the only way Dustin and I will eat cucumber is when it its made into tzatziki sauce. I've tried cucumber multiple times in other ways, and no matter what, I can't stand it. But when cucumber is mixed into Greek yogurt with some garlic, drenching a gyros sandwich, we love it. Funny how flavors blend, turning something you hate into...

Among the millions of pumpkin recipes I have accumulated over the past few weeks, I can't even count the number of cookie recipes I have marked as a "must try" based on the pictures alone. Despite all of these recipes I couldn't find the perfect recipe for cake-y pumpkin cookies that had the right amount of spice to them. Every recipe I saw...
