All opinions are mine alone. #GreatTeamEasyClean I have been spending a lot of time up north in Michigan this Summer at our second home. This has been great for me and the dogs, but hard on Mister Tipsy because he has to stay back in Chicago and work. Having a live in recipe blogger has spoiled him with delicious daily meals prepared for him. Since I have been gone, he has had to learn to cook for himself. When I am home, I teach him some of the easy…

Continue ReadingGet Your Kids Cooking These are two recipes that I have made in my kids cooking classes with kids of all ages. These recipes are appropriate for kids 3 and up. Younger kids may need some help in the kitchen but should be able to do all the steps. I will be demonstrating this recipe live on my instagram @thetipsyhousewife Thursday, March 19th at 11:00 am CST. I would recommend setting up a work station for your child as I have in the pictures included in this post and your child can follow along with the class on Instagram, or…

Continue ReadingLast week I attended the National Restaurant Association Show at McCormick Place with Original Tipsy. If you aren’t familiar it is a food focused convention where people in the food and beverage industry come to check out the latest and greatest in the culinary world. I will be sharing more details about the event soon, it was a fun yet exhausting day. After sampling tons of food and booze at the show, we were in the mood for a proper cocktail and a proper meal. We decided on Kimski in the Bridgeport neighborhood on the South side of Chicago. Kimski…

Continue ReadingThis past week was a good one. I stayed close to home, checked out some, “new to me” places in my neighborhood, planted some flowers for my boss and of course spent the day with Original Tipsy last Sunday for Mother’s Day. Read through for a recap of my week including some great recipes I made and some new “Tipsy Approved” recommendations. Sunday Mother’s Day! Original Tipsy and I spend a lot of time together so we usually don’t feel the need to go over the top on Mother’s Day, plus we were going to the restaurant show later in…

Continue ReadingSundays are supposed to be a day of rest. I try to embrace this theory and spend the day planning for the week ahead and reflecting on the week that has passed. I thought it would be fun on Sunday’s to share what my week looked like. I will share recipes for the meals I cooked as well as highlight any fun places I tried out. Sunday I spent a fun day with my family in Wisconsin, celebrating my cousin’s youngest son’s First Holy Communion. It was a fun weekend spent doing what my family does best, eating! I drive…

Some claim “the hair of the dog” is the only cure, but I disagree. The only cure is hangover food. I’m talking the salty, greasy, cheesy, buttery, variety that are oh so bad, but oh so good. I’ve highlighted ten things I’ve eaten this year that would cure any NYE debacles. Hopefully it helps soothe your New Years Day pain! Check out the list of…

Continue ReadingAs a life long city girl, I used to think the suburban food scene was a mix of TGI Friday’s (are those still around?) mall food courts and pick up joints for over 50 divorced people. I am humble enough to admit that I was dead wrong. A couple of weeks ago, my older Golden Retriever tore his ACL and we had to temporarily move in with my parent’s while he prepared and then recovered from surgery. Not the best situation, but I used the opportunity to explore the Food Scene of the Western Burbs. I was pleasantly surprised at…
