This sale is special because it is site-wide and you can score discounts on products that rarely go on sale (perfume and skincare are two big ones). Over the last few years, I’ve had a lot of fun (too much fun according to my bank account) testing out different skincare, makeup, and hair products. I look for items that are long-lasting, good-quality, and (unless it is something truly magical) are fairly-priced compared to the market....
Shami kabab are usually made with mutton however they can also be made using chicken the way I have made here. These taste very very delicious and very flavorful due to the addition of chana dal and spices. I have shallow fried these and they do not absorb oil if the mixture is made right.

It’s also really really in the 140 bags of leaves that Ben and I raked this weekend. I grew up raking leaves with my dad watching my dad rake leaves, then jumping into them. It seemed like a romantic outdoor activity, at least to my eight-year-old self. Let me tell you, shredding the equivalent of 140 bags of leaves, stuffing those leaves into yard bags, then cramming them into your garage because the dump isn’t open until Tuesday is not romantic....
When it comes to holiday menus, my family is happily and unapologetically stuck in our ways. On Easter, we have ham. And on the day after Easter—and the day after that and maybe the day after that depending upon how crazy my grammy goes when she selects the ham at the butcher shop—we have ham and bean soup. Today’s recipe for a healthy slow cooker ham and bean soup is stellar if you have leftover holiday ham (as is this Ham Sweet Potato Frittata), and if you don’t, it works fabulously with store-bought, ready-made ham too....
With some baked goods, the love of the process alone can be satisfactory. Therapy is found in transforming ingredients like butter (or in the case of this Snickerdoodle Bread, Greek yogurt), sugar, and flour into something new. You can find fulfillment in a bite or two and then set the final product aside for whatever lucky person happens upon it next. Not Snickerdoodle Bread. Snickerdoodle Bread is more of a pop back into the kitchen on repeat situation....
