That’s right, pumpkin croutons. They were a perfect topping on our salad. But, more about that in a minute…. I decided to dedicate last night’s dinner primarily to the yummy pumpkin. Why you may ask? I think it has to do with the fact that I heard it’s like some kind of super food! Also, [...]

Chocolate Banana Cake with….

I wasn’t sure if I was going to bake today, but I just had to! I ended up baking a chocolate banana cake with marshmallow cream frosting. The base ingredients I got from Elayna’s book, but I added and subtracted some ingredients, too! The cake called for chocolate chip chunks, instead of those I chose [...]

So I thought I was going to refrain from baking for a few days, but I just couldn’t. I have some intense desire in my body that feels lost without a day of baking. I really think I should pray about this, I don’t want it to become an obsession! A note to my husband: [...]
Leftover pizza…Yum-O!

Just here to report on the pizza Nic and I had last night. We totally recommend the crust for most people. I suppose I could picture some people not enjoying the taste or the texture. To be completely honest, I didn’t enjoy it quite like a delicious, hot, melt in your mouth piece from Pizza Hut, or one of [...]
Cookies and applesauce

I wanted to post a few recipes from Elayna that I got from her website that weren’t in her cookbook. I made chocolate chip cookies that called for almond flour and grapseed flour. I had no idea there was such a thing as grapeseed flour. Did anyone else? Anyway, I didn’t have grapeseed flour so [...]

It’s been such a long time since I blogged, which means I have a ton of recipes to talk about! Don’t worry, they’re all keepers! Remember that I was supposed to make my way through the book without making any changes to the recipes? I’ve totally failed, but not without some good results to boast [...]
Mom “G” this one’s for you!

Mom this first blog is solely dedicated to you. The reason being is that I was supposed to make my way completely through this cookbook not changing any ingredients. A little background for the people reading this blog that don’t know about my tendency to change ingredients in a recipe. There is some odd hidden [...]
Matzo Ball Soup and Muffins

Today I whipped up Matzo Ball Soup, and blueberry-banana muffins. I’ve decided for each dish that I make that I will include a little quote from Nic getting his viewpoint on the dish. He’s the very best critic. Probably the nicest critic anybody could ask for. The Matzo ball soup was very exciting because I’d never [...]
