For me, having a food blog is sometimes more than just sharing new recipes, techniques, and pretty pictures. Ultimately, I started writing and posting here as a way to explore my other creative passions (photography and food) aside from strictly designing all day. It has proved to be a great outlet and place for me… Continue reading The Perfect Tomato Salsa

Summer Salad
It was time to thin out the garden. If you follow me maybe you’ve seen a little glimpse into our backyard garden. It is so crazy how in mid May everything was still a bare patch of dirt. Now it’s overflowing and I’m placed with the hard task of thinning out the carrots and greens… Continue reading Summer Salad
Quick Healthy Snack Idea
Raw Cocoa Bites, aka little energy nuggets. Seriously, pop a couple in your mouth before heading out for a hike, or any type of exercise you’re planning, and you’ll have a lot of energy, more than enough to get you to the top. Plus they’re lightweight and easy to pack. You’ve maybe seen something similar… Continue reading Quick Healthy Snack Idea
Yummy Summer Salad
Summer has taken hold of me, as is usually does, and because it’s always so short here in the NW, I’m enjoying it while I can. This explains my lack of posting here (among a very busy work schedule), but I just had to share this recipe while corn is still in season. I love… Continue reading Yummy Summer Salad
Raw Summer Foods
Two raw food desserts in a row… it must be Summer. Looking back in my archives I noticed I have a record of making a lot of raw or almost raw desserts and salads this time of year. Besides the fact that there is an incredible amount of fresh produce at our fingertips in the… Continue reading Raw Summer Foods
Great Summertime Salad
One evening, a couple weeks ago, Jared and I were lounging in the living room and I turned to Jared and said, “I really can’t believe this house is ours.” He responded, “I was just thinking the same thing.” I’ve been reflecting about my life and how incredibly fortunate I feel for everyone and everything… Continue reading Great Summertime Salad
Yummy Burritos
I realize these look more like tacos than burritos, but sometimes you have a slight recipe fail and with my time running short these days I just went with it. I say slight, because they tasted delicious, they just didn’t exactly wrap up easily like the wheat flour tortillas I’ve made in the past. I… Continue reading Yummy Burritos
BBQ Season Is Here
This long weekend is for bbq’s, beach outings, camping, sharing meals with friends, and definitely for ice cream… or frozen yogurt! Let’s all get the unofficial kick-off to Summer started off right. I’ve got a million things to do, but it’s going to have to wait; at least for a short bit because my brain… Continue reading BBQ Season Is Here
Where have I been?
I haven’t meant to be away this long. I have so many ideas and good eats to share with you, but little time to photograph them all. First because of moving into our new house, then last week because of planning for a craft show and to top it all off, a blog feature of… Continue reading Where have I been?
Pumpkin Spice Season
It’s true. I have a very hungry appetite for all things pumpkin-y and spice scented during the Fall. But my motivation for this recipe comes from my realization that I can count the number of decorations I own for one of my favorite holidays of the year, Halloween, on one hand. Actually, one finger. It’s… Continue reading Pumpkin Spice Season
