Here’s a delicious, gluten free snack that I invented after finding several recipes online that called for garbanzo bean flour. Well, I didn’t have that, but I did have a can of the beans, so I improvised. This is incredibly easy, healthy and fun to make. I was looking for something I could slather goat…
Yesterday my friend Nancy and I went to Bayside for lunch (yum!) and then we did a little thrift store shopping (fun!). A used bookstore opened just up the street from me and we had a good time browsing in there for awhile too. I can’t wait to share the cool stuff I found with…
This was such a fun, delicious and easy meal to make for our Valentine celebration this year. We were all decked out in our comfiest jammies under quilts in the living room while watching movies on demand and munching baked fajitas! Thank you, Cozycakes Cottage, for the inspiration. These exceeded my expectations! I was a…

A Week of Valentine Treats Day Four I thought it would be a good idea to at least include one healthy recipe for our Valentine’s line-up since it’s heart health month! I myself have been eating a lot healthier since the beginning of the year. I do the majority of cooking in our home, so…

I’m so excited to be spending the weekend with my BFF Jana. Lots relaxing and knitting planned. I’ll be heading out the door in about an hour, but I just had to stop by and share this delicious recipe with you. This is a wonderful, healthy breakfast dish for any day of the week. We…
What the what? 51K on facebook? My blog has been filling up with so many comments I sincerely can NOT keep up. I truly never thought that would be a problem for me. Not that what I’m saying isn’t terribly interesting (because , come ON, it is) 😉 But I was getting use to one…
So far so good with the healthy goals in 2014. I’ve been making lots of delicious, wholesome dishes that are loaded with flavor. I am trying to cut back on the bad fats, sugar and salt… but this dish just isn’t the same when you try to make it with greek yogurt in place of…
When I was little I loved spending weekends at my grandma and grandpa’s house. One of my fondest memories is hanging out with them in the evenings and watching Lawrence Whelk on their big console TV. We ate giant bowls of ice cream. Real ice cream. Not the low fat stuff. As I’ve gotten older…
