You guys have been asking for the recipe for these nuts, so I finally measured stuff when I did my prep this weekend. So without further ado… Simple candied walnuts Ingredients: 5 cups walnuts 3 tbsp olive oil 2 tbsp maple syrup 1 tsp kosher salt Directions: Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil and maple syrup. Then add the nuts and stir them (a lot) so that every nook and cranny is coated. Leave them for 3-5 minutes and then toss again. Let them… Read more >

I took pics of the days surrounding Kyle’s 30th, but never shared them! Never too late to celebrate? Here’s the young man and his tower of 30 beers. Kyle requested an al fresco themed birthday dinner, and since it was gorgeous weather it seemed like a brilliant idea. We hit up the farmer’s market that day and hung out in the park with friends, soaking up the social scene. It was a taste of what it to come (once the weather finally commits to warmth in entirety). The above platter had some old… Read more >

Laura took a half day on Friday so after our morning routine she came home and we hit the road. Off to Coogee!

She cheated on her former employer (Coogee Cafe) and took us to Globe Fine Food & Coffee. She warned us that the service wasn’t amazing, but the food was. Plus it was on a cute street that had… Read more >

Mama’s little helper. The addition of shoes to the wardrobe has transformed him into a little boy. He’s non-stop exploring. Still not walking, but he’s perfected his cruising skills, so it’s only a matter if time (days). Green toys. And now the word tractor is a part of his vocab. Davis appropriate. Inspired by Vintage Mixer’s kale coconut & chicken salad I made this guy for lunch. I have been struuuuuggling with lunches lately. I don’t know what to eat without soy or nuts or hummus. I’ve been trying to limit meat to… Read more >

The whole shebang of last week in one post. Here goes. Breakfast on Monday was the last of this savory bread and fried eggs. Breakfast on Tuesday was out – I had a savory crepe with hash browns at Crepeville. Because Crepeville’s portions are awesomely massive I had leftovers for breakfast on Wednesday. Which I paired with two fried eggs. Thursday I made steel cut oats in the rice cooker (the crock pot was already occupied) for our whole family. I topped mine with a bunch of non-nut things (aka seeds galore) – including… Read more >
