Returning food to the sacred
Simple. Fresh. Pretty. Oh and juicy. This salad is my current go to for the season. All the light crunchiness of the Jicama blends well with the smooth avocado and the lime juice gives it a lovely Mexican touch that goes well on it’s own, or with fish tacos. Also? Making it, makes you feel […]
Boy did these babies take some serious work! I cannot tell you how many muffins I made until I got this recipe right. I’ve pretty much been banned from making any more in this house for the next year! However, I will say it was worth it. They are moist, deliciously tastey, and are perfect […]
The journey with squash continues over here in our little jungle house in Maui. After the soups and the muffins and the steamed pumpkin, I began looking through my Pinterest food board to get some new ideas. I found this and I’m telling you, it’s my latest FAVORITE thing. I’ve made it twice now. It’s […]
I’ve been in a soup mood, can you tell? Trying to savor each last second of cooler to cold weather here on the North shore, I’m longing for the nurturing textures of a bisque and crusty gluten free bread whenever possible. This one was inspired by the huge leeks I’m getting in our CSA box […]

Muffins, stuffed squash, quinoa salad dishes, pumpkin mash, […]
A while back I wrote about the amazing lime bounty I was getting from my friends Roxanne and Shane. Their tree just bursts with limes every year and they are wonderfully generous with their fruit. At one point I had so many that I froze the juice, but also kept the zest, in order to […]
I must say, I have loved having our friends, Rox and Shane, share the bounty of their lime tree with us. For weeks it seemed that every time I went over there for my thrice weekly swim, I walked away with a bag of home grown organic limes. I used them on everything; in my […]
Our CSA box has been bringing such a juicy variety of goodness lately. Between the box and our friends with fruit trees, we have been eating quite well. I wanted this salad to be simple, fresh and colorful. The dressing is super light and only enhances the natural flavors of the beet and the […]
My dear friend Susan Teton is an amazing Chef and one of the wonderful treasures Jon and I have discovered here in Maui. Susan was on of the people I met early on in my journey into Maui and as you all know, Maui for us has been among other things, about food food food. […]
