on being thankful…
Not to be a Debbie downer, but consider yourself lucky if you are off for Thanksgiving. I have to work…my choice. A trade off so that I can be home on Christmas and New Years Day. It’s left me...

kee-no-wah
Have you been guilty, as I have, of mispronouncing this fluffy whole grain (fyi-it’s actually a seed)? I don’t know…it feels weird to pronounce it the way it was meant to be after years of...

simple granola
I had some awful store-bought granola this past week. I don’t want to name names ( hint: sadly, it’s named after a book of the Bible). It was so devoid of flavor that I doubted I was actually...

French Boules
I MADE BREAD! When making the above declaration, one must pound their chest with two fists like this. Imagine tearing a hunk of this warm bread-crusty on the outside, chew on the inside-and having it...

oatmeal pancakes with roasted strawberries
I had been in a bit of a breakfast rut when strawberry season came into full swing in the mid-Atlantic region. Due to the mild winter (I’m guessing), the berries were ready to pick around the middle...

sugar snap peas with red quinoa
The county farmer’s market season is in full swing and I have visited three times since it first opened. Weekly constants include lettuce, radishes, a loaf of locally baked bread, and deliciously...

sauteed kale with walnuts and farro
What have I learned by working on a farm this year? Sure…I can eyeball two pounds of zucchini and have developed an affinity for eating sweet corn straight off the cob (no cooking required!), but I...

Pancake Tuesday
Happy Shrove Tuesday, or Pancake Day. I thought I’d share a past post for my all time favorite oatmeal pancake recipe. Strawberries aren’t in season right now, so I’ll be changing it up a little for...

breakfast quinoa porridge with coconut milk and toasted almonds
Due to an injury to my hand, I’ll be light on words this week (I’ll save that story for another time). I’ve been, periodically, making a batch of quinoa at the beginning of the week, storing it in the...

Farro with roasted tomatoes and feta
I give up…autumn is officially here (I think?). After faking us out for weeks with weather in the 80′s, today was a chilly 50-something. Time to stack the cord of wood that’s still sitting in front...

Pumpkin chia granola
Do you make resolutions? I typically don’t. It has always seemed sort of hokey to me. If a change is to be made, then buckle down and make it. Anytime. Anyway. Who says it has to be a special...

Creamy Coconut Chicken and Wild Rice Soup
Brrrrr! No sooner did we survive the polar vortex (not to mention hearing the term “polar vortex” about a million times!), now the east coast is getting slammed again with a not-yet-named snow storm....

The Very Best Oatmeal
Another breakfast post…are you sensing a pattern here? Since mentioning a couple of weeks ago that my husband has been cleaning up his diet (and quite successfully, I might add!), we have fallen in...

Banana Bread Waffles
If you believe everything you read or hear, National Pancake month is February, and IHOP’s National Pancake Day is March 4th (not during National Pancake Month? Whatever IHOP…). I love pancakes just...

Peanut Butter and Cocoa Nib Granola Bars
These bars saved my life a few weeks ago when we traveled. Alright…maybe I’m exaggerating, but they definitely saved my tastebuds. You may remember when I posted about being really sick right before...

Farro Risotto with Roasted Mushrooms and Dark Ale
If you don’t want to hear me whine about the weather again, you might want to stop reading now. The weather in Maryland is so wonky sometimes, especially on the shoulder seasons. After a perfectly...
