Big Game Dish: Queso Fundido in a Beer Bread Ring

Chipotle Queso Fundido

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #VivaLaMorena #CollectiveBias I tend to overdo things when I bring dishes for parties (see layered jello shots), so this time I tried to come up with something that was classic football party far. And I overdid it, but in the best of … [Read more...]

Co-Parenting Like a Boss: 5 Ways to Make it Work

Co-parenting Like a Boss

My son's father and I were never married. I found out I was pregnant after we'd decided to go our separate ways, and since I made the decision to keep my baby without his input, I gave him the option of sharing in parenting responsibilities or in relinquishing all parental rights. He went all in, and he's been a proud papa from day 1. However, … [Read more...]

Cooking with my Abuelita: Salsita Sabrosa

My Abuelita's Tamales are Better Than Yours

5 Holiday Albums You Won’t Hate

Holiday Albums You Wont Hate

I think holiday music gets a bad rap. Sure, it comes a little too early in these last few years - Christmas music before Thanksgiving seems.. well, it's bullshit. I find it annoying and gratuitous, and I just won't listen to it voluntarily. I do like a lot of the music itself on its own - just in its own time. I have a month to get burned out on it … [Read more...]

The ULTA Edit: Makeup on a Budget

Lip Injection Lip Gloss at ULTA

Makeup is a bit of a luxury spend. Okay, maybe it's like the biggest luxury spend. I know it's not a necessity - I just enjoy it. It's my adult-me-thing and I like playing with it in the same way that my 4-year-old likes playing with finger paints. It's almost meditative, really - I get to know my face, enjoy my features, draw out the ones I love … [Read more...]

Why I Call Myself a Feminist

Why I Call Myself a Feminist

Sometimes when I wake up at odd hours of the morning, I find myself stumbling through comment threads on Facebook and Reddit. It never takes long to find a comment disparaging feminism and feminists. Recently, a well known vlogger even came out in opposition to feminism, saying that she doesn't need it. I need feminism, though. And even if she … [Read more...]
