Over the Christmas holiday, we had the privilege of spending some time with Stephanie and her beautiful family. I met Stephanie online several years ago when I happened upon her website. We connected over our views on parenting and love for travel. She continually inspires me, particularly when it comes to food. The day we walked into her home, the delightful smel... Read More »

Despite the fact that I'm a complete and utter chocoholic, I'm finding that I'm incredibly drawn to fruit-inspired baked goods. My husband and I tag teamed it this weekend, and together, we created several easy, Labor-Day inspired dishes to celebrate the last few days of summer. Since my children absolutely love berries, I dived into creating a berry tart. While... Read More »

I love this time of year because the weather is warm, but tolerable, our garden is blooming with tomatoes and roses, and we have an abundance of sunlight for extended outdoor play. This time of year always seems to be full of gatherings and parties, and it seems like every week my son's preschool is celebrating something. Food allergies still dominate our lives, a...

My son is an avid superhero fan. He's had a toy Iron Man for at least a year now, and if he's not talking about them, or playing with them, he's asking for new ones to add to his collection. Filled with action and comic book nostalgia, Marvel's The Avengers is certain to be a hit among adults and kids alike.
Over the weekend, we did some baking as we typicall... Read More »

Considering the fact that I've just spent the last week trying (unsuccessfully might I add) to perfect a Vegan Peppermint Brownie recipe, I'm thinking I should stick to something I know...like nur...

I haven't baked in about a week and I was craving cornbread this morning...the sweet buttery version as opposed to the more savory, pair-with-chili variety. I knew my son would want to be able to eat it, but to be honest, I didn't think I could pull off a vegan version that would taste anything like the original. After experimenting a bit, I finally came up with o... Read More »

It's mid-January and perhaps you're thinking about ways to keep those New Year's resolutions. I know that come February, I'm struggling to maintain my exercise routine, cook most of our meals at home, stay organized, and manage my time wisely (just a few of my resolutions). Of those resolutions I've made this year (and every year for that matter) eating healthy an... Read More »

My closest friends and family know that breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. If given the option, I'd choose breakfast for lunch or dinner each and every time. Pancakes, waffles, omelets...all foods I love along with my son. Unfortunately, because he suffers from food allergies, he can't eat any of them, along with a number of other breakfast foods. Having... Read More »
