Retro Re-pin Party Time! I hope you're having a good week! My hubby and I just got home from Southern California where we were celebrating my father-in-law's 60th birthday and taking a mini vacation to Disneyland. (It was my first time visiting Disneyland!) We had a blast enjoying the warm weather of Orange County in the middle of winter. I couldn't believe we could eat dinner on the patio in ...

Retro Re-pin Party #28 with Good-For-You Snacks
Retro Re-pin Party Time! We are sad to announce that this will be Robin's last week hosting the party with us. She's been offered some exciting new projects, so she's re-allocating her time to those and taking a break from hosting with us for a while. It's been a blast to host with her each week, so I'm sad to see her go. We'll miss you Robin! Be sure and stop by her blog and wish her well this ...
Retro Re-pin Party #27 With Valentine’s Features
Welcome back to the Retro Re-pin Party! Do you ever have a week where all your carefully laid plans have to be totally thrown out of the window because something unexpected happened? That's what my week has been like. I think things are going to calm down now, but I'm super behind schedule. Here's what I've been up to since the last party: On to the party! I'd love to see ...
The Retro Re-pin Party #25
We're Retro Re-pin Partying Today! I can't believe Tuesday is here again! We've had a couple staying with us from out of town this week, and I've really enjoyed having people to share a meal with each evening. (Not that the hubby isn't great company, but there's something wonderful about a full table.) She's gluten-free, so I've been pulling out all my favorite gluten-free recipes. I'm ...
The Retro Re-pin Party #24 Featuring Bacon Wrapped Dates
It's Time For a Retro Re-pin Party! Happy Tuesday! I had my eyes dilated for the first time today, so it's been an interesting morning. I never realized how many things I look at close up on a regular basis to get all my blogging work done. At least I can still eat? I've been busy this week with several new series here on the blog. A quick run down of my new posting schedule: Monday: Main Dish ...
Retro Re-pin Party #23 featuring Lemon Cream Sauce
Welcome Back to the Retro Re-pin Party! I hope each of you had a wonderful holiday with family! We drove from Denver to Austin for the holiday (14 hours in the car - woo!) and enjoyed some overdue time with family. We also celebrated my mom's 60th birthday on the 22nd by throwing her a surprise wine and cheese party this past Saturday. All her friends were in on it, and my sister and I came up ...
Retro Re-pin Party #22 Featuring Homemade Vanilla Sugar
It's time to Retro Re-pin Party! This week has finally felt like Christmas around here. I went to my first holiday party - a book swap with my book club. We each brought a book we really love and exchanged them with a little poem. Whichever book we ended up with will be what we read for January's book club meeting. When I first joined the book club, I had no idea how much I'd come to enjoy ...
Retro Re-pin Party #21 featuring Sweet Potato Nachos
Get your Pinterest pins ready because it's time for the Retro Re-pin Party! I just got home from the most wonderful food eating trip to Portland. You can read all about it here in my post from this morning. It's been a bit crazy to be travelling so much. I've been ordering packages left and right for holiday gifts and trying to time them so they'd arrive when we were actually in town and ...
Retro Re-pin Party #20 Featuring a Round Up of Unique Pie Crusts
It's Time for the Retro Re-pin Party! I hope you each had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I love Thanksgiving so much that I actually had 2 Thanksgivings - one friendsgiving a few days early and then a Thanksgiving with my sister-in-law in Washington DC on the actual day. The benefit of hosting a friendsgiving is that we still get to have leftovers at home even if we celebrated out of state. (Though I ...
Retro Re-pin Party #19 Featuring Prosciutto Pear Bites
It's time to throwback with the Retro Re-pin Party! Y'all, Thanksgiving is coming!!!!! I seriously can not WAIT for Thanksgiving. Just 9 more days!! As a food blogger, it's pretty much our biggest holiday. I think November may as well be national food blogger month. (Anyone want to join me on that? We can just tell everyone that Thanksgiving is a feast in our honor and the parades are for ...
Retro Re-pin Party #18 featuring Cherry Cheesecake Bites
Welcome again to the Retro Re-pin Party! This week has been a crazy drop in the weather here in Denver! Monday morning it was about 50 degrees when I left the house for work, and by the time I got home it was 20 degrees and there was snow on the ground. Today has been even crazier with 3 inches of snow and 11 degrees outside. I'm headed to a meeting tonight and planning to try to get away ...
Retro Re-pin Party #17 Featuring Caramel Apple Nachos
It's time once again for the Retro Re-pin Party! Did everyone have a good Halloween? We didn't have as many trick-or-treaters as we typically do, so I had a TON of candy left over. Do you have any leftover Halloween candy ideas for me? I have no idea what to do with it all. (Besides eat it - breakfast of champions right?) I actually felt so guilty about eating all the candy this ...
