This is Butternut Squash #3 in my kitchen this fall. My skin is turning more orange by the minute. Stinking beta carotene. That’s actually not what I wanted to tell you. No, what I wanted to tell you is that when butternut squash is peeled, cubed and roasted in coconut oil, it reminds me a …

I Have Something To Tell You About Butternut Squash
October 8th, 2012 | Posted by in Lunch - (4 Comments)Over the weekend we had a potluck picnic on the calendar and we were asked to bring an autumn themed dish to pass. I needed something simple, but more importantly, something that I could remember most of the ingredients to off the top of my head. Per usual, I was making my decision about what …

I’ve been using my blender a lot recently, due mostly to the fact that I broke a very small, yet very crucial piece off the top of my food processor bowl the other day.

I’ve replaced meals with snacks, I’ve swapped vegetables for fruit, and now instead of running or blogging, I’ve been watching Season 1 of Modern Family on DVD. I hate to be wimpy, but the first trimester has …

Enchiladas for dinner tonight! And they. were. awesome. But guess what’s inside of them? Just guess! Never mind, you won’t be able to guess. In fact, you won’t even believe me when I tell you.

So I hurt my wrist. I know. It’s always something, right? Left pointer finger. Left knee. Left wrist. What’s left? I’m not even sure how I did it. I think it’s keyboard/ergonomics related, so I’ve changed some things up on my desk, but the pain went from “niggly” to “bad” to “awful” in a matter …

(Alternate – and perhaps more catchy? – Title: The One Where I Show You My Underwear) (Took me a minute to decide.) So! White bean blondies aren’t the only thing you can bake to heat up your kitchen. Pumpkins are good for that too, especially first thing in the morning. This pumpkin showed up in …

Life is settling back into a post-marathon norm around here. I spent much of today getting caught up on all things food and laundry now that I’m hobbling around a little bit less and taking the stairs slightly faster than yesterday. Or at the very least I’m not doing the “step up with my right …

I don’t know what the weather is like where you are, but it’s A Cold, Wet and Dreary kind of day here. Or maybe A Soup, Sandwich and Writing on Your Bread with Mustard kind of day? Yeah, I like that kind of day much better. So I guess that means we better make some …
