It’s been a while since I visited the beach. Now that I live more inland I really miss walking along the shoreline and breathing in the ocean air. I grew near the beach so I think it will always be in my blood. I, of course, was too young to appreciate what living next to the Pacific Ocean…

Homemade BBQ and Sour Cream & Onion Potato Chips
I love the thought of a snack-y picnic–not eating a full meal out but rather packing up your basket full of small bites in order to settle under a tree while you eat a small bag full of homemade BBQ and Sour Cream & Onion Potato Chips (vegan, of course). Fear not, I made…

Gluten-Free Vegan Pita Bread
I‘m really bad with surprises. It’s not that I don’t like it when someone surprises me, that is, unless they are hiding under my bed to “surprise” me–that is something bordering a heart attack.
