We are a married couple who started our life together while working as attorneys at the same law firm in Dallas.  Now we live in a suburb north of Chicago, where Dan works as in-house counsel, and I’m pursuing a career change as a freelance copyeditor (contact me at claritybykelly (AT) gmail (DOT) com if you need an editor!)  When we’re not working, Dan loves to cook, I like to take pictures, and we both love to eat.  This blog is our place to share our love of delicious and (mostly) healthy meals, executed on a full-time professional’s schedule.  What works for us is planning and shopping for our weekly dinners ahead of time—usually on the weekends.   We spend a typical Saturday morning browsing cookbooks and online to find 5-6 dinners for the next week, planning for most of the weeknight meals to be easy, but without sacrificing taste.  Dinner—even after a long day at the office—is our time to relax, connect and enjoy our good life.  We hope to inspire others to do the same.
