Put it in the books!
Year three of Perfecting the Pairing is complete. It was a great year filled with (in no
particular order) newly created recipes, old family favorites, meeting an
amazing guy that changed my life, becoming a Zumba instructor, fun trips to
Disney World, Mexico and Paris, and a zillion other things in between.
Even though I have been cooking more than ever (it is pretty
fun cooking for the man!), not everything has made it to the blog, but that is
ok. There is always next year!
My goal for year four is to add a new section to the site about menu planning. I received an email from a reader who asked if I would ever think about sharing menus. I don’t know why I had not thought of that sooner! Fortunately, I have saved a LOT of emails through the years with menus for family get-togethers, holidays, girls’ nights, date night, parties, etc. I’m excited about this new section and I hope it is helpful! Of course, I will continue to share my favorite new recipes, pairings, tips, and life in general.
Thank you to ALL of my readers. I appreciate absolutely every single view this little site gets. Thank you, thank you!

Let’s get to the good stuff!
Top ten most viewed posts from year three
Traditional Potato Salad – This recipe has been in my family for years. No fancy additions, just the best potato salad ever. So happy that it made it to the #1 spot! It deserves it.
Huli Huli Chicken – Has to be my favorite chicken
recipe. It is perfect for a crowd and
all of the work can be done in advance.
While I agree with the top posts, I have to put my own two cents in for my favorites each month!
September 2013
Pesto Turkey Burgers with Goat Cheese – Just a few
ingredients make these turkey burgers extra awesome.
October 2013
Pumpkin Crisp – Kind of like apple crisp, but with pumpkin! An awesome fall dessert I will definitely be
making again.
November 2013
Sausage and Dried Cherry Stuffing – It would simply NOT be Thanksgiving
without this stuffing. So. So. Good.
December 2013
Kale Salad with Spiced Sweet Potatoes, Crispy Kale and Sweet Sesame Dressing – Inspired by a restaurant salad. Use this dressing on everything!
January 2014
Kale, Butternut Squash, and Bacon Breakfast Burritos with Spicy Chipotle Sauce – It may sound like an odd combo, but it wins at life.
February 2014
March 2014
Oatmeal Shortbread Cookies – Easy and delicious
cookies. Change the shape and color
based on the holiday! We always have
these at Christmas with red and green sugar.
April 2014
Tuna Noodle Casserole – An updated version of the classic. Almost makes me excited for cold weather…. Almost.
May 2014
June 2014
Key Lime Pie with Pretzel Studded Crust and Coconut Whipped Cream – I feel like this recipe did not get the attention it deserved! I mean, come on, just look at the title! It is easier than you would think to make and
is just righteously good.
July 2014
Avocado and Strawberry Toast with Feta and Honey – I have
lost track of how many times I have made this.
This strange combination will never get old.
August 2014
Grilled Pizza with Asparagus, Caramelized Onions, Hummus and Brie – Again, a strange combination but it WORKS. Oh buddy, it works.
There you have it! Year three in a nutshell! That was fun, let’s do it again. Xoxo
