Lavender Strawberry Scones

In case you were wondering if we still have strawberries overflowing from our refrigerator, the answer is yes… And I have re-made these strawberry muffins THREE TIMES since I first showed them to you all. Which was only, like, a week ago?? You do the math. They are a big time hit in this house. I keep forgetting to write down the recipe as I make it though. I know loosely what I do but each time the batch gets bigger and bigger because we go through them so fast! Anyway, this post isn’t about… Read more >

Bulk pantry

The Davis co-op underwent a major (and much needed in my humble opinion) revamp this Winter and now that it’s all finished and looking so fabulous, they had a few sales for members! The new store layout was a thank you enough for me, but I’ll take and extra 10% too if it’s being offered! Each Thursday this month there was a different section of the store offering a discount, but all I really cared about was the bulk bins day. Three full weeks went by without me refilling anything and let me tell you…by… Read more >

Spring Grain Bowl

I keep making different iterations of this same salad because it is SO GOOD. What really makes it is the dressing. It’s crazy how so few ingredients can transform into a something so stellar. Definitely a sum-is-greater-than-it’s-parts kind of thing happening here… Since the salad is inspired by the DIY grain bowl recipe from my latest obsession, Run Fast Cook Fast East Slow, I’ll share the directions as they have written them plus what I chose. I think my combo is amazing, but of course, if you aren’t in the mood for rice you could… Read more >

Run Fast Cook Fast Eat Slow

I did it! I spent (some of) the weekend getting really organized and meal planning and I prepped SO WELL that this week’s food was completely heavenly. It helped that I was super inspired by the recipes in these cookbooks. I got Run Fast Cook Fast East Slow from the library last week and have been obsessed from page one. OBSESSED. Maybe you are already aware of how stellar Shalene and Elyse’s cookbooks are, but I somehow missed the memo back when the first cookbook came out. I did it out of order though, because… Read more >

Pizza at market

I just discovered this post from two weeks ago….that I obviously never published. Better late than never! I’ll pick up where I left off at the end. Aren’t these the cutest?? We brought them to farmer’s market last week to pass out to V’s friends as a VERY belated birthday celebration. It’s not in our nature to do big birthdays, so when she asked for pizza at farmer’s market for her birthday I said absolutely. We invited some buddies and called it a day. She was in heaven so that’s all that matters. We all… Read more >
