Pumpkin & Pomegranate

Anyone ever watch Troop Beverly Hills? One of my favorite movies from my childhood, and while making these delights I thought that they would be the perfect way to snack on trail mix for the Beverly Hills Wilderness Girls. These won’t work out in a Zip-Loc baggie in a backpack, but they would still be [...]

If you recall, back in December I had a blog posting on black bean soup. I mentioned that I was trying to re-create our family friend’s recipe without knowing what was actually in it. well I e-mailed my friend and asked her what her mother’s recipe actually was, and she was kind enough to give [...]

I have yet another homemade item to show you. Not like this is all that special, but I made my own hemp milk the other day. After reading that carrageenan causes inflammatory bowel disease, I just figured that since I already suffer from IBS I don’t really want to add to the issue. I am [...]

I took my mother out for breakfast at Flying Apron where we shared a Berry flying Apron, a PB Joy, and an Asian kale salad. I think we got the salad [...]

Head on over to Meg Kat and enter to win this Le Creuset bowl. I wish they had one in the new eggplant color. It would be so satisfying to make pancakes in this sucker.

Yesterday was Cinco De Mayo so of course I had to make Mexican food. I re-did the Mexican quinoa (with a few minor adjustments, which I also made to the previous blog), and I also tried my hand at some Marissified enchiladas. I admit that this first attempt was not perfect. in fact next time [...]
