This was Thursday!  This week has gone on forever and ever.  I felt like Tuesday should have been Friday, so that was depressing. And then the rain returned and that’s just blah blah blahhhhh… Pancakes for breakfast! This is the norm. I make the batter the night before with 1 banana, 1 egg, canola oil, flax meal, flour, salt, baking powder, and then however much milk to get the right consistency. I asked for this griddle for my birthday for this exact reason. So much faster than a pan.  I never clean it or take… Read more >

This is a partial view because I missed some stuff, but it’s my main meals so that’s close enough. First, I had coffee but I have no photo evidence.  I had one cup of decaf with Califia’s mocha almond milk in it.  After the kiddos were fed, I heated up the second half of my batch of waffles from last week.  With cashew butter on top.  Definitely in a cashew butter rut. Full disclosure: I also went and got a Starbucks decaf soy misto after library before picking up P. Once the kids were down for naps I… Read more >

99% of the time I make the kids pancakes or oatmeal for breakfast.  I make the batter for the pancakes the night before.  It has 1 mashed banana, 1 egg, ~1 cup of some kind of flour, 1-2 tbsp flax meal, 1/2 tsp baking soda, pinch of salt, and almond milk to reach the right consistency. When I make oatmeal I add a ton of stuff in – raisins, seeds (chia, sunflower, pepitas), nuts (almonds, or walnuts), cinnamon or vanilla, and shredded coconut.  Shredded coconut is Pattycakes’ favorite. Anyway, I felt like they needed a… Read more >

You guys are the best!  I was so excited to get back to regular blogging and then I got all these lovely comments and questions and inspiration…lots of subjects to blog about now! First order of business is writing down the recipe for the next time I make this baked banana thing. It makes two breakfasts (for me) with cashew butter loaded on top. The last of the Caesar saladddddd. With the nuttiest creamiest vegan dressing. And avocado and carrots on top. I was semi hungry a while later, and I just so happened to be grocery shopping… Read more >

If I told you I made ants on a log last weekend, you would probably think it was for my wee ones. Nope! 😉 Because snacking aint easy.  I hook him up even on the weekends. Do you pack food to bring to work?  Obviously I don’t pack food for myself, but I pack Kyle’s food every day.  Half of the time he eats breakfast here, but if he needs a mobile breakfast (like on the train or if he has an early call at the office) then I pack him breakfast too. I do it all… Read more >
