Balance with broccoli

Building a kitchen for 2.5 hours on the late night, like NBD this is what we do now. SO WORTH IT. Our Christmas was awesome.  I hope everyone else has had a nice holiday season too.  2016 was weird huh.  It seems inappropriate to gloss over the fact that this year has gone…off…or something.  It’s easy to see the good when you have toddlers who are ignorant to it all; and joy and merriment is beaming from their every fiber.  I waver between wanting to just choose to see that side of the world and then the other… Read more >

Gingerbread babies

Weirdly my blog got hacked recently (by Russia!?! are they hacking everyone?) and was shut down for a bit.  I was on the phone with IT peeps from bluehost for over two hours which was not how I wanted to spend nap time.  I will be honest and say I understood <5% of the things we were discussing for said hours, but at least I am here again with HHH restored. This was an impulse baking sesh…I prepped the dough during their naps and so when they woke up it was ready to roll out,… Read more >

Spiced Quickbread

SO CLICHE! I leave you for a month and come back with this basic bread recipe that is just clogging up your feed with every other pumpkin apple squash thing.  Yep.  I have nothing to say for myself.  EXCEPT.  It’s so good I had to share.  I even took photos.  And wrote the recipe down!  And the nap gods have aligned so here I am…clicking into wordpress for the sake of all things Fall. You like how I lured you in there with that flowery language but really knew you’d see the cute pic of V… Read more >

Nasoya noodle bowl

Mom, this is for you. Because you told me to write it down quickly before I forgot it.  Man, I am terrible at keeping track of stuff when I cook. I’m basically 6 months behind on blogging and we are nearly vegetarians again…save for a few dinners a week…and yet, I can’t even find the time to share my photos because, life. Can you believe this dinner came together during nap time? That’s when everything has to come together.  I think I need to write a cookbook that is made up of all recipes that can… Read more >

Strawberry chocolate chip bread

My latest flavor obsession is strawberries and chocolate.  I owe it to Crepeville because they always seem to have that muffin when we go there for brunch (which is twice a year, but still…I have gotten it both times!). The rest of the family freaks out over berries and I think we have spent 50% of our food budget on summer produce.  WF has been killing it with the sales, too, so the house is basically one big fruit-fest…usually I keep a few fresh fruits on hand in addition to the standard apple and banana… Read more >
