There’s no secret that I love Mexican cuisine. We eat Mexican food in one form or another at least twice a month. I have many recipes for tacos and beans, salads, and enchiladas on my blog. You are smart; you can spot a pattern. Another favorite? Burrito bowl. When we return from a trip, it’s what […]
God’s gift for those who can’t have nuts. (Moment of silence to this incredible treat that the amazing hand is modeling). Even though I like nuts, I tend to overdo the almond butter. (Raise your hand if you consume one jar per week). I have been enjoying sunflower butter and cashew butter recently. I have […]
Recently, while on vacation, I enjoyed a book so much that I read it two times. This is a great deal coming from a girl that used to hate reading. Jeanne Powers is the author of The Modern Rapunzel. Don’t be fooled by the cover, which looks out-of-date and bizarre. The body is filled with information on women’s […]
I am 12 days from 30. I wouldn’t say I like public speaking, but I sometimes do it anyway. The summer is my favorite season. I wish my hair were longer. The good life continues. My wife is my best friend. Every morning, I pinch myself in amazement at how beautiful our new home is. I miss […]
We have moved into our home and are now getting settled. This week, we have finally been able to purchase a couch (small victories! ). It was a relatively painless move, but the challenge is always figuring out where you want to fit into a new area. The kitchen is large enough to accommodate more […]
I remember a time when my love of the Milky Way eclipsed my love of Snickers. It was also a big shock for me. I somehow managed to find space in my heart for another candy bar. If I had to confess my only fault, I would say that I am addicted to …(candy. The […]
We are boring. Once or twice a month, we eat Mediterranean food, which is usually a mash-up of vegetables, chickpeas, and spreads wrapped in as much pita as you can fit in your stomach. Hello, stretchy pants. I made a Roasted Chickpea Tabouleh Salad using our Cookbook but added some sweet potato, roasted broccoli, and fresh […]
It’s either I’m losing my mind, or I am getting really skilled at making falafel. I’m crossing my fingers that it is the latter. For about a week, we have been exploring the new Portland neighborhood and getting to know some of our favorite restaurants (which are very important on our list). Wolf and Bear is a […]
My 5-ingredient Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Snowballs from the Bonus Recipe. (Viewable only to email subscribers!) Wolf & Bear’s “bunny ball” inspired me. It’s essentially a chocolate truffle with tahini. Learn more about tahini’s origin and how to prepare it. The flavors were not as strong as I would have liked, so I decided to break them […]
This is my favorite font. I’ve had it for 3+ years. This is a recipe I am sharing from my Everyday Cooking Cookbook. We’re so glad that you all bought the book. We hope you love it! I appreciate your support. It felt wrong to keep this smoothie from you, so I decided it was time […]
