This past (long) weekend was important for family time because Kyle headed back out of town for business on Tuesday morning (after being away the previous week). Gotta soak it up for the few days he’s around! I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t hard, but since his start-up is young and fragile, it’s important to take advantage of these opportunities so the company will continue to thrive. Growing pains are good. As I type this he is en route to Colorado…10 hours into the 18.5 hour drive. Ouch. So anyway. Saturday. He slept… Read more >

The last few posts have had more elaborate (for me) meals, so I figured I’d throw a few of my stand by quickies your way. I don’t usually take photos of the boring repetitive meals because they’re not that exciting. But I don’t cook fun things all the time and it’s only fair to show my lame side (lest you think I’m super homemaker hippie). Eggs. The cheap protein that can be the star of any meal in a minute. Basic Veggie Egg Fried Rice [vegetarian, gluten free, FODMAPs friendly] Ingredients: 2 tbsp garlic infused… Read more >

We had such awesome weather this weekend (status quo for Nor Cal, but still worth noting) so we really made the most of it. Lots of outdoor time! Friday morning started with Earth Butter-ed toast and a fried egg. <— yup, that’s a bite mark out of the toast For lunch I had a big salad with greens, quinoa, carrots, tomatoes, and peanuts with peanut soy dressing. Since I finished off the rest of the PB I just made the dressing in the jar. I broke up P and his girlfriend Sophie for… Read more >

Is it weird seeing seafood on HHH? It’s weird to me. But for some reason it’s not weird eating it. Probably because I’ve been dipping my toes back into the world of fish for a while now. This dish was fan-damn-tastic. I’m tooting my own horn (even if it was Sandra Lee-esque in preparation). I don’t have time. You don’t have time. None of us have any time. This is as close to home cooking as it gets when you have a 3 month old. Let’s just jump right into the recipe. Quinoa Shrimp Fiesta… Read more >

What an amazing weekend. Not just because I got showered with love. With or without Mother’s Day, this past Saturday and Sunday were just plain awesome. Kyle was down in LA on Friday for a conference, so I was solo parenting again. I broke the fast with a bowl of overnight oats. Man, it’s been a while since I made these! I basically just added boiling water to some oats the night before, along with a few big spoons of peanut butter. Then I stirred it all up and left it in the fridge so… Read more >
