Pumpkin & Pomegranate

I know I am nearly a month late for St. Paddy’s Day, but I’ve been a bit busy. Speaking of busy, HELLO! It has been months since my last blog post. Lots of stuff going on in my life, including a lack of interest in blogging! Not because I haven’t wanted to write, but because [...]

Right before Halloween I headed over to a nearby produce market to check out their pumpkin selection. Obviously I love pumpkins, and to my delight they had my FAVORITE variety! The Fairytale pumpkin. This baby is a French variety and was the inspiration for Cinderella’s coach. I love it so much I keep pondering a pumpkin tattoo. [...]

Two weeks ago I went to the Farmer’s market in the University District here in Seattle. I brought with me $20 cash to buy 2 apples, an onion, and some collard greens. i have been getting my CSA box and so I just needed to supplement. Well, within 5 minutes I spent half my money [...]

Hello all! I apologize profusely for not posting something in the past 2 months (or around that, for shame!). I have had a lot going on in my life. Some good, some bad, and I am not sure that I will be wanting to share most of it with the internets.  I will be posting [...]

Ok, admission time. I made these berry biscuits a few days ago, but have yet to post the recipe for a couple of reasons: 1. They are good, but are not something I would necessarily feed to others. Ok, I’d feed them to most of you, but that is because I know you all appreciate [...]

I was in dire need of more breakfast breads. Well dire is a bit extreme, but yes I wanted some. I just got some strawberries from a groupon for SPUD so they seemed like the perfect thing to stick in a muffin. By the way, have I mentioned how much I love groupon? That site [...]

I have had bread on the brain lately, and this banana bread was something I lay in bed dreaming about on Sunday morning. I mulled over it for a while and then dragged myself out of the cozy warmth donated to me by two sweet feline bodies, and got to work. I thought about having [...]

I admit that I am a tad speechless right now.  I don’t know exactly how to describe this, except that it is truly scrumptious. A gourmet treat to behold. I had 2 slices for breakfast, but I could easily see this as a base for a little canape as well. The loaf is small, but [...]

Because you know I had to make them. You clearly can see I have an obsession with pumpkins. in fact, I ponder a tattoo of a pumpkin (and a pomegranate). If I do it, it will be of my favorite variety, the fairytale pumpkin. I haven’t been able to find any of these lovelies in [...]

I have had so much squash this summer you wouldn’t believe it. No complaints! I love the Zucchs and the squashes, but I have been running out of ideas for (quick) ways to prepare them. Most of my squash have had the same fate…either a slow roast and topped with vegan Parmesan, or a breakfast [...]
