Have you ever had a really awesome peach? I mean really awesome. You would know if you have. I’ve got a guy, my really awesome peach dealer. Every week during the season, I go to the farmers market to pick up delicious white peaches that come from a small farm in Pennsylvania . While you could just …

I love the 4th of July. It has always been my favorite holiday. Cook-outs, family and friends, and fireworks — what’s not to love?! Even as an adult I get excited for the 4th. But now rather than stuffing my face with the food other people make for me, I stuff my face with food …
Have you ever heard of a 1st Birthday Smash Pie? People always tell me that time flies quickly with kids and to savor every moment – strangers say that to me. I nod and say things like “Don’t I know it!” and give a fake laugh and walk away annoyed that a person would think …
Potato chips are delicious. I’m pretty sure that’s one food topic most people would agree on. Potato chips are delicious. But they are terrible for you! Even baked chips aren’t guilt-free. So what’s a person to do if they can’t get that crunchy, salty fix from potato chips? Kale chips. I’m not going to try …
Quesadillas might be your answer to a picky kid. Every kid has their food quirks – I’ve been a mom for a short 10 months and I already know this to be true. And just to complicate things, the quirks change without notice. Sweet D ate all of her veggies without resistance until suddenly thanks …
Back before Sweet D came into our lives, Hubby and I used to sleep in on weekend mornings. On Sundays we would roll out of bed whenever and make pancakes. Not every Sunday – but on any Sunday where we both got up around the same time and we had all of the ingredients in …
Sweet D is 10 months old this week – she’s been eating solids for 4 months. As you can imagine, being the foodie that I am, I was very excited about introducing her to the wide world of foods and flavors. But it wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. Eventually she got …
Important note: This is NOT a Passover recipe! This is an incredibly delicious recipe that HAPPENS to be kosher for Passover. Don’t run away! Why the warning? Passover desserts are generally not good. For those who choose to observe Passover by eliminating all leavened foods for the eight-day holiday, you know that making baked goods …
Gather ‘round, gather ‘round! I’m going to tell you my abridged version of the Passover story. This is not the complete version… if I left out your favorite part, add it in the comments so others can see! Long long ago, even before any of my parents were born (pause for gasps), there was a …
Keeping with my quinoa theme, I thought I would look a little outside the box. As I said in my last post, quinoa is like a blank canvas. So blank, in fact, that you can easily turn this tiny seed which is most often used in salads into… a burger. Yes indeed. This recipe has …
Let’s talk about quinoa. I’m sure you’ve heard of it, but I’m also sure many of you have walked right past it in the grocery store thinking it is 1) too intimidating to attempt or 2) looks too much like bird seed to please your meat and potatoes family. So let’s address those issues… First, …
You know that moment in the World Series where one team realizes it just won? That final catch or the walk-off homerun or the last strike? Some guys run around like lunatics… others fall to their knees… mouths gaping, shouting for victory… you know what I’m talking about? Yeah… I feel that way when I …
