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 >

For the first time since we arrived in Nor Cal, Kyle was able to sleep in spend the day with me (and not working). Sleeping in is a thing of the past. I made Kyle breakfast first while he got in some baby time. He misses P so much when he’s gone. That toast I made him is Semifreddi’s sour batard. One of the best breads in the Bay Area in my opinion. My breakfast was later because I was working on my dandy tea (still no GI upset with it, so that’s good). In… Read more >

I dunno if you guys want ideas but here are some of the latest and greatest (?) from the hippie kitchen. Kale salad with candied nuts, dried cranberries & smoky lemon tahini dressing. 1 large bunch of kale, washed, de-stemmed, ripped into bite sized pieces 1/3 cup dried cranberries 1 cup candied nuts (I used almonds and pecans) Bon Appetit’s Smoky Lemon Tahini Dressing – I halved it and added 1 tbsp of both miso paste and maple syrup Wednesday was national frozen yogurt day (uhhh, that’s a thing??) so Menchie’s was… Read more >

Look what Mr. Savory requested for breakfast! Kyle was really proud of his idea for trail mix pancakes. He wants full credit for this breakfast concept (even though I made them), so if you’ve seen these before just keep it to yourself. 😉 I made the batter the night before (leaving the trail mix out) and in the morning breakfast was pretty much ready to go. Trail Mix Pancakes [yields ~10-14 small pancakes] Ingredients: 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour 1 tbsp baking powder 2 tbsp sugar 1/2 tsp salt 1 1/4 cup almond milk… Read more >

Not a typical statement (or opinion). For me at least. But I’m being honest here. Between the hours of noon and 5 pm, I graze. Meals have no room here anymore. And I’m not super proud of what has been going in my mouth this last week. It’s not terrible stuff. But it still leaves me feeling blah. I can do better. I miss well balanced full meals. They’re easier to build – with all the macronutrients represented. And they leave me sated for hours (until my next full meal). Grazing is confusing. I’m not… Read more >
