The tasks of this past week, actually, the past several weeks, have proved to be exceptionally demanding of my time. Warmer temperatures have also brought with them an increasing list of “to-do’s”. I believe that even when my schedule is packed and the work seems endless, I still have to take time for myself and take […]
It can be challenging to find authentic cultural cuisine at restaurants-especially when you are also trying to eat healthy. Typically you just end up with some Americanized version of Mediterranean, Asian, Latin, etc. We, however, enjoy trying new and authentic dishes not normally found on restaurant menus, but it can be challenging to find restaurants that hail true to […]
I find it is more difficult to find the inspiration to whip up fresh and new dishes in the winter compared to summer. Is anyone else with me on that one? Maybe it’s the limited availability of fresh, seasonal ingredients. Or perhaps because I’d rather hibernate, sip hot tea, and gaze at the fluttering snow […]
Friday night pizza night, what can I say, it’s a staple in our house. My husband gets a little cranky if we even miss one week! But of course, living healthy and gluten-free means no Papa John’s or Pizza Hut visiting our door. Even though many of the big chain pizza places offer gluten-free alternatives, […]
When I have to reign myself in from over-eating on vegetables, I know it’s a good recipe. I’ve made this medley for a few different functions and every time it’s a hit…even among those who do not run to the vegetable platter. I typically double the recipe and use a large roasting pan so I […]
Another year has come and gone, and we now welcome 2014. With each new year comes a renewed sense of spirit and drive to improve upon the people we were the previous year. Often times those resolutions for greatness in some way include goals related to health and wellness. Everyone, at some level, has the […]
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 […]
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 […]
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. […]
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 […]
