Of a very pregnant (over 40 weeks and counting!) lady…on maternity leave… Wake up 4+ times throughout the night. Finally get up for good some time between 6-8 am. Drink weak tea with almond milk and maple syrup. Wonder how much longer til you can guzzle caffeine again. Make breakfast #1. A bowl of oats with nut butter & bananas. I usually have half the banana at a time since it seems to give me reflux now (realistically everything does). Play on the computer. Respond to emails and blog comments. Make & prep food… Read more >

I made these a while ago but I guess I just forgot about them. Just like the batch of two scones I made, this recipe had a small yield. Only three biscuits, actually. I guess they’re biscuits. They’re not as buttery though. More like baby banana bread rolls. Who knows. I had them for breakfast, sometimes plain, sometimes with nut butter. But they’d be good with Earth Balance and jam too. That was my favorite toast topping growing up. Not butter OR jam, butter AND jam. Did anyone else do this too? Is this… Read more >
