Saturday was a landmark day for Two of a Kind: We had our first dinner party. Admittedly, it was a feast for four, but it was still significant to me. We welcomed our first houseguests (besides my mom, dad and brother) and I prepared a full-course meal from scratch. Rookie even warmed up to our friends after barking at and biting one of them.

I mean, how often does a newbie blogger get to partner with one of her absolute favorite brands? Let’s just say I’m enjoying it while I can….
No-Knead Beer Bread
Drink beer? Eat bread? Next time you open a bottle of brew, make this beer bread. Like red-wine rosemary no-knead bread, it’s crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, and requires a splash of alcohol to make the dough, which lends a subtle flavor to the final loaf….
