It is the most beloved, the most requested, the most downloaded and the most adored recipe on Kate from Scratch. This recipe exploded all over the internet when it was first published; shared and linked and highlighted and commented upon regularly for over a year. I got emails saying how “wicked good” [...]
Before I talk about these awesome nachos, I want to discuss with you something very important involving spiders. So hold your appetite for one more minute and be patient with me.
Do you have an official spider killer in your house? I’m not exactly sure how I became the official [...]
Max disappeared into his room for a few minutes and then this happened. Never mind that mess in the background. One more week and they’re in school, this place will be tolerably clean again, but I digress.
I mentioned that we were going to bring our sons on what we call, a “mystery trip” for Trey’s seventh birthday. And well, let’s just say… it’s going to require some very slick and clever planning on my part to top this year’s birthday shenanigans in honor of next year’s celebrations (We’ll worry about that [...]

This is one of those dishes that I could eat at any temperature with any meal. Don’t judge.
