If you are like us, then there is sometimes nothing better for breakfast than a bagel and smoked salmon. Smoked salmon at the store always seems high priced for a small packet and so this becomes a once-in-a-while indulgence. So do we go through life munching down on a plain bagel and some cream […]
Breakfast
Salty Peanut Butter Protein Bites
A couple of years ago I stopped eating gluten, (added) sugar and dairy. Not because I had an allergy or sensitivity but because I needed a total body re-set after a terrible diagnosis of Strep throat which developed into a year of misery. Removing all inflammatory foods from my diet for that first year made […]
Morning Coffee
I’ve found my new favorite thing and it is a Mason Shaker by W&P. We love mason jars for all sorts of things at our house and as a cocktail * coffee * smoothie shaker? Yes please. It all started years ago when I first met my husband who was finishing up his career with […]

Unbelievably Good Cashew Coffee. Until recently I had not been a cashew fan. Until recently I had not been a coffee fan. […]

Ina Garten’s Blueberry Bran Muffins
School has been back in session for about a month. Not to pat my back with too much enthusiasm…but I’ve been pretty good about making a food schedule and sticking to it. It has made mornings easier and the dreaded what’s for dinner conversation a breeze. Three things have made this a success in our […]
