This is a recipe I adapted from Rose Carrarini’s Breakfast, Lunch, Tea cookbook. We had it for breakfast this morning and it was so delicious. Very satisfying. My son loved it – but my daughter is still working on her molars so she was having a hard time chewing the nuts and seeds with sore, [...]

This morning, I was sipping on my green tea in front of the computer checking email, Twitter and such. And Martha Stewart twittered that she was going to be doing a kitchen segment on the Today Show this morning.  My son happened to be home from school sick today so we sat together and watched her segment. He loves [...]

Sunday mornings, I typically make a really big breakfast for my family – a  tradition that I carried over from when I was younger.

I came across this recipe for chai in the Culinary Institute of America’s Breakfast & Brunches.   [...]

banana peach smoothie

published 4 years ago, at the end of September

Organic peaches grow in the beautiful orchards out in Western Colorado and I bought a case of them. Which translates roughly into about 60 peaches. My goal was to preserve some so we could brighten a dreary winter day with some kind of peach treat. As such, last week I spent a few hours (ok more than a few) [...]

bagel with lox and lemon dill spread

published 4 years ago, at the end of August

This morning, I woke up and had a hankering for a bagel with cream cheese. Choosing not to be sad about the fact that dairy (cream cheese) tends to be  out of the question for most celiacs, I broke out some of louise’s lemon dill dip, spread it on a toasted bagel and then topped [...]

blueberry muffins

published 4 years ago, mid-July

Blueberries are everywhere right now. I love that about summer. I haven’t really made muffins since the cooler months (when I usually pair them with soups). But, today I thought I would try and bake up some muffins for a little afternoon snack out at the picnic table. I like mine loaded up with berries so I [...]
