I can't think of any better way to start this blog post (a post celebrating three of my favorite things and three of my favorite farmers) than with a story for you guys. So here goes... I'm standing in line to buy some of the most delicious organic apples (that I have picked from the [...]
I love waffles. A lot. But since changing my diet and figuring out what works for me, I really don't love the way I feel when I have a breakfast that's loaded with sugar. My little sister left today for 5 months in Italy. I told her that her last two meals before she left [...]
It's that time of year. The time of year when you can't walk down the street without seeing a persimmon tree or squishing one of the overly ripe fruits under your shoe. My dogs particularly love this time of year and tend to go persimmon crazy whenever we walk under a tree. You'd think we never [...]
Pancakes... oh how I love pancakes. There was a time, after realizing how severe my intolerance was to certain foods, when I thought I would never get to enjoy pancakes again. I tried all kinds of "paleo" pancakes and would always end up feeling bloated, heavy, and uncomfortable from loads of almond flour and a tummy [...]
I think it is a tragedy that every holiday season, globs of delicious cranberry sauce are thrown wastefully into the garbage. Cranberry sauce is one of those feast accompaniments that no one really knows what to do with once the meal is over and the leftovers are consumed. But that is all about to change. Put [...]

Fact: my husband loves biscuits. Corn biscuits. Biscuits and gravy. Buttermilk biscuits. Cheddar biscuits. Breakfast biscuit sandwiches. You name the biscuit, he loves it. With temperatures dropping, and soups, stews, and lots of chili on the menu at least 4 days a week, he's been asking me for biscuits pretty much daily. I love him, so [...]
When I was a kid, I always looked forward to the sweet and tart flavor of cranberry sauce at Thanksgiving dinner. In my littlest years, before I could even reach the counter, we would always go to my great aunt's house. I have such vivid memories of the cranberry sauce adding sweet to the salty [...]
*Hi friend! I've decided to revisit this post 4+ years later to make some tweaks to the recipe, to share some thoughts about the holidays, and to add a sweet little toddler approved recipe you can add to the process for the tiny bubs in your life (or for you with that cup of morning [...]
*This is a guest post from Alice Ger of Uber Fresh* Halloween is around the corner, and we started thinking to ourselves, what are we going to give the cute kiddos that are going to stop by? We cringed at the thought of high fructose corn syrup, food colorings and preservatives parading in a pretty wrapper. [...]
