What I ate…a long time ago

Last week I took photos of my whole day of eats – something I rarely do anymore – and then I just forgot about it. But they were good meals worth sharing so I’m posting them now because it’s food related and this is a food blog! It’s pretty atypical for me to have oats in the mornings nowadays, so this creation is more of an anomaly than the norm.  I was in the mood for peanut butter but I used sunbutter instead because I’m still nervous about eating nuts when I’m around P.  Even… Read more >

My highlights: weeks 11 & 12

We finally have internet (FOURTH Comcast visit since moving…sooo…third time is not the charm).  Meaning this post is semi-current!  [Depeding on how long it takes me to write and publish] Where to begin!  It has certainly been a crazy April.  But I have to back up to the end of March first.  When we said goodbye to our (rental) house and moved 2 minutes south. We moved here when P was a mere 3 months old and now look at him!  Almost walking and ready to take the world by storm. I was in a… Read more >

Australia: Bondi and back

Sunday was our last (full) day in Sydney 🙁   We slept in a bit and after feeding P, drove over to Bronte for brunch.  Bogey Hole was one of several cute looking cafes on the main street along the beach front.  They were all pretty packed but after a short wait we were able to snag a spot outside that fit us all, including a very fussy P in his stroller. Kyle got a banana smoothie and toast with jam.  I think we were all feeling a bit blah from the previous night. Laura… Read more >

A day of food

We ran out of eggs before the end of the week but I refuse to ruin the budget by going to the store.  I gave P the last two, scrambled with spinach, just like he likes them.  Luckily I had one hard boiled egg left for me.  I layered the slices atop avocado toast.  We both had blueberries on the side. P had an entire zucchini muffin (cut into small bite sized pieces) with his eggs and blueberries. I used the same recipe as I did here only I bumped up the coconut aminos to… Read more >

When do you clean the blender?

Here’s the real indicator that I’m type A…I literally clean the blender parts and put them away before I drink my smoothie.  Even when I’m a crazy hangrypants.  Please tell me there are others out there who do this too?  I know the OCD tendencies run deep in food bloggers, so I don’t think I’m going too out on a limb with this.  But I definitely do it every. single. time. I make a smoothie.  Other dishes, not so much.  I’ll wait til after I eat breakfast to clean the frying pan (usually because I… Read more >
