I don’t think the idea of paring pumpkin and peanut would have occurred to me before seeing this recipe of Katie’s. But it sounded like an interesting combo, and I only had a bit of pumpkin left, sooo…yeah…I made a pumpkin peanut butter stew and the rest is history. Pumpkin Peanut Butter Stew with Spinach & Tempeh [vegan, gluten free, FODMAPs friendly] Ingredients: 1/2 cup pumpkin (either use canned pumpkin or mash/puree a baked squash) 1/2 cup plain almond milk 3 tbsp peanut butter 1 tbsp maple syrup (omit with using sweetened PB) 1 tsp… Read more >

I’m obsessed with their goat’s milk and lactose free dairy products, and they were nice enough to reach out to me to see if I was interested in taking a tour of the place. Ummm, yes please!! They were so thoughtful, in every aspect…arranging for me to meet the owner Jennifer….giving P a stuffed animal goat…touring the dairy…meeting the goats…and sending me home with mega samples! Not just of cheese either! They grow TONS on… Read more >

For all the recipes I find in cookbooks, magazines, and blogs, I don’t make very many! I’d say they serve as inspiration mostly. My taste preferences usually then guide me in tweaking things to make them how I want them. But in the past few months I’ve been drawing blanks in my kitchen (I crave nothing and because of this I cannot for the life of me create menus in advance).

Going old school with the “what I ate” style blogging. For breakfast I went to Crepeville with a coworker. She was just getting off (a really crappy) night shift, so she vented to me and I listened. P spent the morning throwing things from the stroller to the ground. Whatever keeps you amused little man. I got the tofu scramble which comes with both hash browns and a bagel. The portions at Crepeville are massively massive (LOVE!!!) so I took home the leftovers for Kyle. Which is the bagel you see above. Seriously Crepeville… Read more >
