Hazelnut Fig Bars
I’m in limbo. We are moving soon (just two months away..). It’s soon enough that I’m starting to get sad/nostalgic/motivated to start fresh/etc; but not soon enough that I can actually do anything about it. It’s too soon to start packing, too soon for goodbyes. I want to soak up the last bit of […]
Quick Blackberry Thyme Lemonade
So, I’m planning to bombard you with a whole bunch of drink recipes this week. Is that cool? I had some time without the kids and I got carried away with my experimentation (it looked like the produce section of the grocery store blew up in my kitchen). All of the drinks turned out to […]
Sweet Sunset Cooler
I’d like to introduce you to your new favorite drink of Summer 2013: the Sweet Sunset Cooler. I am all about this drink! It really surprised me.

Surviving GAPS Intro: Stage 2
For the next 6 weeks, I’ll be chronicling my journey through the GAPS Intro Diet with a little self-made questionnaire. What did I eat on Stage 2? Stage 2 didn’t differ too much from Stage 1. I was able to add egg yolks to my soup, fresh herbs (this really made a difference to me!), […]

Traditional Bone Broth: Tips, Tricks and More
As you probably know, I’ve been working on healing some stomach problems (are you tired of hearing about it yet? haha). The first time I read about the healing power of bone broth was through the Weston A. Price Foundation. It made a lot of sense to me- finally I understood why homemade chicken soup […]
Citrus Hoisin Salmon and Sesame Sauteed Kale
I just remembered that I like fish. How did I forget this? Reasons why: 1. It’s quick cooking. 2. You can flavor it with anything. 3. My kids eat it! 4. It’s good for you. 5. It’s beautiful to look at. 6. It makes me feel fancy. Seriously, I’m in love! I started getting these […]
