Easy Black Bean Salad

Easy Black Bean Salad

After nearly 3 years in our “new” house, we are finally getting around to actually doing some home improvement. A few weeks ago, my husband and I, with the help of a family friend who actually knows what they are doing, built a deck off the side of our house. It’s a good size deck coming in at about 200 square feet, enough for a table and a fire pit and visions of parties and ...

Wine-y Cranberry Salad

Wine Cranberry Salad from EatinontheCheap.com

Few things are more controversial in the South than libations. It’s certainly not uncommon for people to be on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to imbibing, and I know convincing people to believe otherwise on the issue is about as effective as digging a hole with a wet noodle. But as this month of thankfulness cruises on, I can’t help but be thankful for wine, no ...

We went all over the place, but my favorite place was this little Greek restaurant around the corner from her apartment. We dodged angry drivers ...
