My mom left a ridiculously over-ripe banana at my house (actually technically she left it in my car and then called me later to tell me she forgot about it and I may want to remove it before I had banana soup on the front seat), so I decided to bake with it. It wasn’t organic and even though I’m sure you can’t bake away pesticides, I’m going to pretend the heat did something to remove the nasties. It has a thick skin, so at least it’s not one of the dirty dozen (bananas… Read more >

Here’s a dirty little secret. I cover up one corner of toast in 99% of my photos because they have one bite taken out of them already. I don’t know why, but I always take a bite out of the bread before I put it in the toaster. What can I say…I’m special. Or I lack patience. Either way it doesn’t make for a nice photo, so I always manage to cover it up with another piece of food or crop it out of the photo entirely. My first breakfast is above (GF toast with… Read more >

Can you believe I made this a while ago but only just got around to trying it? I know that sounds insane but it was purely due to the move. I hated the idea of blueberries and greek yogurt going to waste, so I decided to bake with it. Transporting a couple of frozen loaves of bread is way easier than berries and yogurt individually. It may seem like I’m obnoxiously frugal cheap, but organic blueberries are not inexpensive. Plus I don’t like the idea of waste. I’m the girl that takes home the last… Read more >

Highlights only. I could never recap an entire week! Footed PJs are the cutest thing ever. Saturday morning we had an open house. Rather than subject P to a million people germing up the joint, I took him for a walk. We went to the Farmer’s Market to re-stock on spinach (this habit requires a constant influx of greens). After everyone left I came home and got ready for a BBQ with friends. We picked up some apps on the walk over (oh how I will miss these easy walks to friends houses in Santa… Read more >

I made a major mistake and didn’t say decaf when I ordered this (venti soy misto) before we hit the road to come home from NorCal. I was very perky! I hope P didn’t get as high as I did off the caffeine! Oops!! The rest of the road trip was similar to the first one – Kyle and I traded off driving duties and our little man slept 99% of the time. I packed up our eats again. Similar as always. Brown rice, half an avocado, & two hard boiled eggs with a nooch… Read more >
