ALL DAY Valentine’s Day MENU!
Last night I was putting the girls to sleep when I had this great idea. An ALL DAY Valentine’s Day MENU! Chocolate in everything we eat all day long. I can’t wait to hear their little squeals 🙂 It begins with one of our favorites: “Nutella” Pancakes, from page 44 of my chocolate book. They’re high…
Honey Bacon Sweet Potatoes (Kids Who Are INSPIRED to Cook!)
We LOVE sweet potatoes! And sweet potatoes are what Zoe picked for the second dinner she wanted to make us. I think I’ve mentioned it before, but since we are talking about sweet potatoes here, there is a really great book called, Sweet Potato Power, that I love. But back to the kids. Zoe’s idea…

Maple Sugar, by Tim Herd. A historical, botanical, DIY, cookbook
Hi everyone. It’s Kelly’s husband here with a sweet book review. My parents are from upstate New York, so I was raised with a taste for maple syrup. We never used that “maple flavored”corn syrup stuff on our pancakes, and we always preferred maple candy to anything Hershey’s makes. So, I was very interested to…

Finding Comfort in Soup & Simplifying
It’s time for a little heart to heart conversation between me and you. I’ve hinted at it in recent posts, but I thought it would be best to really share what’s been going on. Times have been hard with autism lately. That big bad wolf has seriously reared it’s ugly head. The last time Ashley…
Paleo Indulgences cookbook review
I was over the moon when I received my Nourishing Meals review copy last week. Then four days later my review copy of Paleo Indulgences arrived. Eeek! I am such a happy camper. And my family is probably slightly relieved that rather than testing (and ah-hem, flopping) recipes, lately I have been cooking out of…
Nourishing Meals: Healthy Gluten-Free Recipes for the Whole Family cookbook review
Since Ali sent my review copy of her new book, Nourishing Meals, two days ago I have been spending every free moment reading it. From the moment it arrived I’ve wished that I could do nothing else but read it. This is a book that anyone would love, but if you have children or are…
Grape Jam
This is the third year since we planted our grapes. I give them (and everything in our yard) worm castings and water. Nothing else. And they are thriving. Below is Zoe sitting with the first basket so you can get a sense of how many grapes there are. We don’t own a scale, but I…
