frozen hot chocolate

published 1 month ago

Life has shifted into high gear this summer. As a result, some weeks have passed since my last post. My mother-in-law, whom I adore, was here from South Africa for almost a month. With her she brought updates of how our family and friends are doing as well as stories about the World Cup and  [...]

maple pecan butter

published 4 months ago

Just to set the record straight, I have never ventured into the land of making my own nut butter. I always dismissed it, speculating that it was too complicated or time consuming a task. Now that I have made it – and understand how easy it is – I’m a little sad that I waited [...]

I’ve been away for a while because of our recent relocation across the country: we said farewell to Colorado in late March and arrived in New Jersey just as the moving truck began to unload our belongings.  A few rooms  still remind us that we are knee deep in boxes.

[...]

This recipe is my submission for August’s Go Ahead Honey it’s Gluten Free blogging event hosted this month by Kim over at The Food Allergy Coach.  Her summer appropriate theme is Chill Out! meaning “no cook dishes” or ones that are “best served cold”. Perfect for when the weather is simply too hot to even [...]

Crisp? or crumble ? What is this exactly?  Delicious, I think. It’s a grain free dessert which is perfect for summer. We had this last night after dinner and it wasn’t too heavy considering the summer heat. I considered adding in some additional summer fruits but in the end settled for strawberries and blackberries  – if you [...]
