I cook because I can't afford a therapist
So I have this friend. I don’t know how much my parents pay her to feign interest in my shenanigans, but I do hope it’s a decent amount for my looney tunes. Anyway, this friend (who has never lived in a big city) – recently looks at me and goes, “can I ask you a…
It’s the sass’s THIRD birthday! (read year one, and year two) Another year in the books, another birthversary for Sassy Eats – she is three! (for the official definition of birthversary, read this) I’m a horrible mom, (yes I just equated my blog to your child, I know it’s offensive, hopefully you know it’s sarcasm)….

Those parents that are reaching that halftime point. 4. Going to all of these places. 5. This new uncle the…

(This giveaway has closed) Oh it’s frigid, frosty. The polar vortex is upon us but for some reason, in December, it doesn’t seem so bad. At least not to me. I don’t mind the cold around Christmas when there are so many fun things to do in Chicago – zoo lights and Chriskindlemarket, ice skating,…
