I get a CSA box, and I also find myself wandering aimlessly through the farmers markets pretty frequently. Rarely do I have a recipe when I go, and I don’t ever know what my CSA box will have it it until the day it arrives. So usually I just pull random things out of the [...]

Since I haven’t been writing posts I thought I would at least show you some things I have been consuming. Many of these things I have eaten a few times in the past month. I go through food phases and right now I am in a wrap phase. I am completely addicted to these bad [...]

First off, a yoga question. Do any of you sweat like mad during your yoga sessions? I do! Mostly on my hands and feet. I wear special yoga toe socks so my feet are stable, but I am now thinking about getting some gloves as well. It is incredibly difficult to feel stable when your [...]

I don’t have any recipes for you today. I hope to have some after the weekend, but until then I will show you what has been taking up my time this week…nature! Well and some food, but mostly NATURE!
First with the food. My friend Heather and I hit up Flying Apron last Saturday for breakfast [...]

It is amazing what you can do with some random items in your fridge. Yes ladies and gentlemen (though I think I have very few gentlemen readers….odd that.) this is another post about what I can stick into a raw collard green leaf. This time it is leftover fava bean dip from last Friday night, [...]

Last Friday, May 21st, was my little sister’s birthday. She would have turned 26 years old. My family and her friends lost my beloved sister in a car accident in 2000, so unfortunately we all had to celebrate her 26th birthday without her physical presence.
The day I become a big sister was one of the [...]

Last Sunday I spent the morning at the Ballard farmer’s market with my mother. I planned on treating myself to a bouquet of flowers to cheer me up. I had thought about lilacs as their scent would be such a joy to wake up to in my room, but instead I ended up spending all [...]

Sometimes mishaps in the kitchen turn out to be delicious creations. Last weekend I had grand plans for Cajun quinoa burgers. Unfortunately for me at the time they turned out more like pancakes than burgers, but they still tasted fantastic. We just doubled them up and carefully transported them to our respective buns and plates. [...]

I came home from work on Tuesday and for some reason was craving a smoothie. Not sure why, but I decided that a smoothie and a bath would not be a bad idea at all. Last time I went to Healeo I decided to nix the dates (I already shun agave) and I added in [...]

I promise a recipe tomorrow, but this morning I had to share my leisurely Saturday morning breakfast. Matt wanted some faux sausage, andI even tried some Fakin Bacon. I loved the smokey flavor, but it was honestly too sweet for me. Didn’t need the sugar at all!

Next up, fresh pastured eggs.
For Me a hearty hearty [...]
