This weekend, I went on a spontaneous trip to Boston to visit Jill. Knowing I would want to experience all of Beantown’s best eats, she made a reservation for Saturday morning brunch at South End Buttery, a restaurant that has won awards year after year. We had absolutely gorgeous Spring weather all weekend so we…

After I took the last bite of this fish, I picked up the phone to call my mother so I could tell her she absolutely had to make it this week. It looked fine enough on Pinterest, but the result was way better than I could have imagined. In a bowl, combine low fat sour…
