I have been cooking up a storm in the kitchen, ever since I came off my cleanse. Trying out easy and casual dishes with a bit of a different twist has been my interest lately. Tacos are a favorite here, and I found a recipe for a salsa verde that really inspired me. These tacos […]
Friday Afternoon Coffee
I’ve started spending time with a very artsy friend on Friday’s at her place. She has the kind of art studio that would make even the least crafty person swoon. Yesterday, in the middle of chill music, cold rain outside and a break on my part to look through People Magazine, she offered me coffee. […]
Gluten Free Bread Loaf
Bob’s Red Mill Homemade Wonderful Bread Mix is now a total staple in my pantry. I’ve mentioned before that I’ve tried quite the variety of pre-baked gluten free bread loaves from the market as well as mixes. None of them were remotely as good as Bob’s Red Mill mixes. The bread is soft, moist, and […]
Gluten Free Pizza and Chickpea Feta Salad
For me, Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pizza Crust Mix is the best thing since sliced bread! Pizza was one of the things I desperately hated denying myself when I first found out I was gluten intolerant. Can you imagine a life without pizza?! Clearly, this was long before I knew of all the gluten […]
Beautiful Avocados
I broke my cleanse yesterday and had a glorious Avocado. It was a bit of a jump really, but having hit an energy wall on the 11th day, I knew my body was ready to start getting some food in its system. Simplicity is a beautiful thing, and I’m savoring the things I love slowly. […]
Rubio’s Fresh Mexican Grill
I know… a fast food post! Here! But I had to. No, really. A couple of days ago, Jon and I drove down the mountain to drop off the jeep to get fixed, and take care of some errands. In the middle of what turned into 5 hours of running around, we both got hungry […]
Comfort Food: Enchilada Casserole
I’ve talked about comfort food before. Its always tied into cozy, rich, sometimes heavy foods. Often, its an unhealthy dish that can be used to stuff emotions or fill in a boredom gap. I don’t think it needs to be that way, and I love the idea of tapping into the warming side of what […]
Thanksgiving Dinner
Having a house full of people, gathered around an abundant dinner table for Thanksgiving dinner, has always been a desire of mine. And in service to this desire, for the last 3 years, Jon and I have hosted Thanksgiving for a dear group of friends. This year we did it a week early, as there […]
Foodbuzz Star… At Least According To Me!
Out of all the things I tasted while at the Foodbuzz Bloggers Festival, this is not only my favorite, but for me, likely the coolest and official Foodbuzz Star! I love popcorn, especially fresh flavorful popcorn, and at 479 Popcorn what you get is amazing, made to order popcorn seasoned with the most amazing blends […]
