While yet another Christmas has come and gone, the holiday festivities will no doubt linger for the next few weeks. Holiday work parties, friends visiting from out of town, family squeezing in one last get together, and of course New Years, all before we see an end to the euphoria of snow-bells, sleigh bells, and […]

Garlic and Herb Roasted Whole Chicken
The holiday season brings a certain magical feeling to the air. It is felt by all who embrace the excitement and joy brought about by this special time. Especially this year with all the Snow we’ve had (and are still getting), the magic is dusted on each pine tree and creates a seamless blanket of beauty […]
Gluten-Free Pumpkin Bread
As soon as the weather gets chilly and the pumpkins start popping up everywhere I turn, I get excited to make one thing: Pumpkin Bread. I’ve been making pumpkin bread every year since I was in High School. I used to use my Grandma Craigie’s recipe, and then over the years modified that recipe to make it healthier. […]
Easy Apple Pie Filling
Pumpkins, apples, squashes, and harvest. Nothing like celebrating nature’s gifts of fall. Andy and I took a trip to Pheasantview Family Farm where each weekend in October they open up their home-farm for people to come and pick pumpkins, take a hay ride, play with the animals, and enjoy the kiss of fall color along the wooded […]

Squash of the Week: Delicata or Delicioso…I Prefer the Later
I am excited for all of you who are about to experience Delicata Squash (aka Sweet Potato Squash) for the first time. If you’ve had it before you know what I’m talking about. We only tried it last year because it looked cool at the grocery store…that method of shopping is hit or miss but this time it worked […]
Italian Spaghetti Squash
This week at the farmers market I was pleasantly surprised to find fall squashes popping up at my favorite stands! Butternut, acorn, delicata, and spaghetti squashes… Maybe you have yet to venture into the world of squashes beyond pumpkin pie and are left wondering, “what’s the big deal?” Squashes are not only rich in nutrients, […]
Vacations, Holidays, and a Recipe for Ceviche
This morning was one to reflect, be still, and take in the world around me. Just as the sun began to peek through the haze, I slipped into my favorite pair of running shorts and laced up my sneakers that still have a few more miles left in them. Libby dog and I headed out the door for our morning run […]
