Piece this together

A recipe with photos only?  Do you think you could handle it?  Who are we kidding…I’m no culinary master, so obviously you can follow this process (I promise it’s far from nuclear fusion).  Half the ingredients are from the frozen foods section of the grocery store.  Here goes nothing.             So there you have it!  Did you catch the super complicated steps?  Sometimes you need a no-muss no-fuss option after 12 hours on your feet.  That’s when it’s good to have Gardein products in your freezer.  I tried the Mandarin… Read more >

One more week…

…until I leave for Spain!  My family is already there…and reading everything they are up to is absolutely killing me.  I know that sounds lame since I’ll be joining them in no time at all, but it’s hard to keep my jealousy in check as they make their way through the White Hill towns of Spain.  I’ll manage… In the meantime, I keep meaning to share my sister’s blog with you all.  She has been abroad since March (in case you forgot here’s her travel schedule) and she’s been able to blog fairly consistently as… Read more >

One and two

My two current obsessions are the following: (1) Peanut butter covered pretzels (2) Sesame sticks These are the kind of items I wind up buying from Whole Foods when I don’t go grocery shopping with Kyle.  I call them absolutely-necessary-but-really-totally-unnecessary purchases.  And I can (and do!) make entire meals revolve around them.  And there’s no end in sight. Exhibit A Exhibit B     Exhibit C, D, & E I’m not joking, I crave salads around the clock solely because of these salty, crunchy, and delicious sesame sticks.  Even thought the above green beasts all… Read more >

Very vanilla buttah

I’ve been holding out on you.  I have made two things this past week that were (are) VERY worth sharing.  If you like vanilla, this recipe is for you.  It is very very vanilla-y.    If you can even call this a recipe, here it is: Ingredients 2 cups soaked raw cashew nuts (the dry nuts were ~1.3 cups prior to being soaked) 1 tsp vanilla paste (I used this kind, but vanilla extract would work too) 3-4 drops NuNatural’s vanilla stevia 2 tbsp water * Directions Soak nuts overnight (or longer), drain and blend… Read more >

Luxxe Friday

This week has been truly perfect.  Much needed after last week’s sh!t storm of crazy.  Friday couldn’t have been a more amazing end to the week either. Kyle has Fridays off, so we both got to sleep in.  Brilliant start already.  Then we found out his waffle company made it to the finals – open to the public (on May 26th) if you want to attend.  Winner gets investors and money and a bunch of press, so this is HUGE.  While Kyle had a quick conference call I went on a short run (showered); and… Read more >
