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…

Peach Basil Chia Seed Jam
My energy levels have been less than ideal this week but considering that I am in detox mode, it’s definitely expected. I’ve been ultra tired lately, like passing out at 8pm tired. I’m also having lapses in my thinking from putting coffee grinds (for Matt’s coffee; caffeine is off-limits for me right now) into the blender…
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…

Shall we pack up a basket and stuff it with some coffee and homemade gluten-free vegan blueberry bagels? I had a feeling you would like that. Quick though, blueberry bagels are my favorite flavor in the…
Gluten-Free Vegan Donuts

This season it’s the Season of Brad where he dresses like a different character from a different movie of Brad Pitt’s. From the obvious to the obscure it’s always a fun suspense to see what new theme…
Strawberry Semifreddo Ice Cream

I actually have a difficult time believing that I deserve a couple of hours to take care of myself (I’m working on it, trust me!) If we…
Easy Peanut Butter and Jelly Floats
An ice cream maker. It’s been on my birthday list for a while now. Granted I have another six months to wait for it to arrive but I’m pretty certain that according to the weather this previous year, when late Fall does arrive it will still be hotter than Hades here. Hotter than Hades: the perfect…
