Valentine's Day has always, always been another excuse to make desserts and spread some love around work, the kids' schools, the neighborhood, and, of course, at home. I know it's one of those holidays that you either love or you don't... I get it. Single, married, happily involved, or just loving your crazy cat lady life, I … Continue reading Raspberry Dark Chocolate Coconut Clusters- GF, DF, Paleo, Vegan
I have a sort of love affair with breakfast and brunch... I mean, really- what other meal can be so versatile? We can go sweet -OR- savory... we can load our dish with fruit -OR- veggies... we can add bacon, sausage, ham, cheese, eggs, steak... omelettes, pancakes, chilaquiles with fresh salsa verde and a fried … Continue reading Mini Dutch Baby Pancakes- GF, DF

I was a late bloomer when it came to having full appreciation for ethnic foods. Really, really late. I spent the first 25-ish years of my life enjoying a very mundane and unadventurous diet. I didn't realize it at the time, of course, but as I began to explore new cuisines and venture into new … Continue reading Slow Cooker Chicken Curry – GF & DF

For as long as I can remember, molasses cookies have been a delicious part of our family's holiday traditions. My sweet, sweet Grams made an incredibly soft, perfectly spiced cookie with a simple powdered sugar glaze. In my adult life, I only successfully made her recipe twice. She was one of those amazingly talented old … Continue reading Spiced Molasses Cookies- Paleo
This is the dinner that almost wasn't... the post that almost didn't happen because disaster ensued mid-cooking... Anyone else's kids absolutely obsessed with slime?
