Happy Memorial Day! I would like to take the time to personally thank all of the women and men who have sacrificed their lives serving the USA. I know that it is something that I personally could not do, and I am grateful to those who choose to wear the uniform. I hope that you [...]

I was really hoping to have a fabulous pumpkin cake recipe for you today.  I went to work on it yesterday after work as I have been out of my mid morning snacks for about a week. What I like to do is to bake a loaf of bread or muffins, or something of that [...]

The first stirrings of Autumn are here. We got a lot of rain this weekend. Much needed rain. To most of the country Seattle seems like a damp and dreary place. What most people don’t know is that our annual rainfall isn’t all that much. We have gone through a drought this Summer and last [...]

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 [...]

Don’t get me wrong, I love my almond meal pancakes. They are delicious, full of good fats and protein, and they really hit the spot. They are a little dense though, and sometimes I just want something a little more delicate. Enter Coconut flour. Coconut flour isn’t as oil heavy or dense as almond flour, [...]

Seattle has been going through a serious drought of late. Before 2 days ago we had gone 26 days without rain, oh wait…we did get .2 of an inch of rain on Saturday, my mistake! So 2 days ago I set out to take my usual stress relieving walk and lo and behold but the [...]

I baked M a big pan of cinnamon rolls for breakfast this past Sunday, and since he usually does breakfast on Sunday he wanted to make me something *new*. Our usual is a big pan of sautéed veggies (Swiss chard, mushrooms, tomatoes, etc.) plus 2-3 eggs each. But since he has requested a special breakfast [...]
