Orange Cranberry Muffins ~ Muffin Monday

October 17, 2011

This week’s assignment was actually orange date muffins. Sadly, when I read the recipe I did not get all excited. The original muffins called for both dates and walnuts and truthfully, I’m just not fond of either. So if you love dates and walnuts, I’m so sorry to have disappointed you with their removal and [...]

No, Maddy’s been eating the Gerber toddler kind. I don’t feel too bad about her eating them in moderation although if she had her [...]

Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Fresh Blueberry Sauce

August 11, 2011

It would seem that I’ve been on a bit of a lemon kick lately. Let’s blame it on those pregnancy cravings, shall we? Whatever the reason, lemon truly is one of my favorite flavors all of the time.

The Steak That Wasn’t & Gingered Snow Peas and Carrots

March 12, 2011

How in the world do you mess up steak? It really can’t be done unless you over cook it, right? Well, that’s what I thought until the other night. You see, I made what was destined to be a simple yet delicious asian type marinade for this beautiful steak. A little soy sauce, a little [...]

Quinoa… “Qua?” “Keen-What?”… “Keen-Wah!”

January 15, 2011

It’s that time of the year. The time of the year when we’re all still meticulously sticking to our New Year’s health, exercise and diet resolutions. The time of the year when we (hopefully) have not yet plummeted head first into a vat of Ben & Jerry’s.  It has taken great personal strength for me [...]
