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 >

Round 2! Actually, if you count the Thanksmas we had in Tahoe earlier in December with Kyle’s family, this is really our third Christmas. No such thing as too much celebrating, right?! Especially when it’s baby’s first Christmas. We got to my parents’ house just in time for a few cookies. Which provided the perfect fuel for the Niners’ game. My little cheerleader fell asleep on my shoulder during the game so I wasn’t much help in preparing dinner. After we put him down we had a mini facetime sesh with my sis… Read more >

From Davis, it’s not too long of a car ride to Lake Tahoe! And since we left straight from swim lessons (again!), we had a sleepy babe for 80% of the ride. Once we got to the cabin, it was time to relax. 🙂 Ok, first unpack, then relax. Food much? You’d think we were packing to feed an army for a month. But it was really just Thursday through Sunday (celebrating an early Christmas with Kyle’s side of the family). Guess what’s in those plastic boxes!?! SIX (!!) different kinds of… Read more >

There was a lot of food in the house on Thursday. And the Wednesday before. Actually, the Tuesday before too! We set off for my parents’ house after I got my hair cut (finally!!!) on Tuesday evening, so by the time we got there P’s bed time had come and gone and he was not thrilled in the least. Fussy pants was quickly soothed by the heaps of attention he received once more relatives arrived. Family! The house was jam packed with people, so the 3 of us shared a room which meant sneaking in… Read more >

I don’t think the idea of paring pumpkin and peanut would have occurred to me before seeing this recipe of Katie’s. But it sounded like an interesting combo, and I only had a bit of pumpkin left, sooo…yeah…I made a pumpkin peanut butter stew and the rest is history. Pumpkin Peanut Butter Stew with Spinach & Tempeh [vegan, gluten free, FODMAPs friendly] Ingredients: 1/2 cup pumpkin (either use canned pumpkin or mash/puree a baked squash) 1/2 cup plain almond milk 3 tbsp peanut butter 1 tbsp maple syrup (omit with using sweetened PB) 1 tsp… Read more >
