Palm Springs and Coconut Things

Everything but the kitchen sink oats. So steamy.  Seriously, this bowl had SO many ingredients, it’s hard to remember them all. oats pumpkin puree apple, chopped frozen banana, sliced So Delicious coconut milk cinnamon ginger nutmeg toasted cocoa nuts Iced Gingerbread Clif bar, crumbled coconut flakes That must be some kind of record, right?  It required two refills.  Voluminous.  Now, since Kyle and I are off to Palm Springs for the weekend, I’ll announce the winner of the Tropical Traditions coconut flake giveaway a few hours early.

Bumper crop

Our neighbors left a bag of lemons on our front porch last week.  Apparently they had a bumper crop and we were the lucky recipients of the excess.  I’ll be more than happy to take those off your hands.  🙂 I searched and searched for lemony recipes.  And then I came upon Veganomicon’s lemon bar recipe. I was pretty curious as to how a lemon bar could be good without eggs, but I decided to give it a whirl.  I also changed the recipe by dusting the top with coconut flakes rather than confectioners’ sugar. … Read more >

The quick and (not) dirty

Clean eats with minimalist descriptions.  Ready, set, blog. Pumpkin Pie smoothie   Toast with “cream cheese” and cinnamon. I have mixed feelings about Tofutti cream cheese.  It’s got an odd saltiness to it that can sometimes make for an unexpected flavor, but it’s great for subbing into pasta dishes.  It does melt when it meets warm bread, which is a win in my book.  🙂   Self explanatory addiction. Ditto to the above. Avocado + pea mash up It’s not easy being green…when avocado is involved.  On toasted sprouted bread.   My night shift work eats… Read more >

The Island of Misfit Toys

Shout out to anyone who recognizes this title (and picture).  Too bad VHS tape players are basically extinct because this is a classic as far as I’m concerned.  And now, may I present to you, our island of misfit toys… Sad, but true, these do not get used often enough.  I have no excuse.  It’s something I’m pretty ashamed to admit actually.  So I hereby vow to use both the slow cooker and the juicer once a week.  Do we have a deal?  Good.  The inspiration for this crock-pot soup came from here.  All I… Read more >
