Homemade Hearty Almond-Vanilla Cereal {And a Big Bob’s Red Mill & Attune Foods Giveaway!}

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2012

I make granola frequently and I’ve shared a couple recipes for it (this Pumpkin Spice version is one of my favs when autumn is in the air and even when it’s not), but I’ve never tried my hand at homemade cereal before.  (You know, the flake kind.)  Until now.

I found a recipe on Mr Breakfast for Nutty Bran Flakes and I was immediately inspired.  (Obsessed is probably a better word, lol.)  I knew I had to make my own version. (more…)

Sea Island Coffee {Giveaway}

Wednesday, May 16th, 2012

Are you one of those people who can drink coffee any time of day?  Mike likes to joke that I drink coffee instead of warm milk at night to help me sleep…and while that isn’t exactly true, it is true that coffee doesn’t keep me awake.  I joke that it’s because every time he and I visit the Middle East we chug countless pots of Turkish coffee at all hours of the day.  :) (more…)

Vanilla-Ricotta Stuffed Crepes with Orange-Maple-Walnut Syrup {Giveaway}

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2012

So, honey, I made something and I think it’s really good…do you want to taste it?

I’m not really hungry.  (Not two minutes later, he grabs a bowl of mixed nuts and starts munching away.)

I thought you weren’t hungry? 

I’m not…these are just nuts.  (Lol, really?  I thought nuts were food.  I keep these thoughts to myself.  :) )

I sit down next to him, beautifully plated crepe in hand.  Can you just try a bite?, I say, waving the plate temptingly in front of him so he can smell it as well as see how pretty it is.  He sighs, realizing that sometimes I can be just as stubborn as him.

As I all but plug his nose and stuff the bite into his mouth, he tastes it and admits that it’s delicious. (more…)

Toasted Coconut-Almond Biscotti {Giveaway!}

Monday, April 16th, 2012

I have a picture of each of the seasons in my mind…summer is grill parties, fall is harvest dinners, and winter is comforting stews, roasts, and casseroles.  But every time cheery spring arrives with its bright blossoms, chirping birds, and sunny days, I feel like brunch is in order. (more…)

Vanilla-Berry Whole Wheat Couscous Breakfast Pilaf {And a Bob’s Red Mill Giveaway!}

Monday, April 2nd, 2012

When we’re on vacation Mike has an anti-cell phone policy – he likes us to leave our phones in the hotel room when we leave in the morning.  His idea is that not only does this give us a nice little break from work, but it also lets us focus on having fun and spending time together.  Yup, my hubby is thoughtful like that. 

But what happens when people email me and I have urgent business to attend to?  ;)  (Not to mention when people email Mike, which actually is urgent…sometimes.) (more…)

Afternoon Tea at Disney’s Grand Floridian {And a Giveaway!}

Friday, February 17th, 2012

Mike and I recently got back from vacation.  We went somewhere warm and sunny.  Actually, it was almost an exact replica of the family vacation we took two years ago, except this time the weather averaged in the high 70s and 80s. (more…)

Baked Pizza Dip & A Giveaway

Sunday, December 4th, 2011

My sister makes a pretty mean batch of stuffed shells.  A blend of herbs, spices, and three cheeses make the cheese stuffing not only incredibly cheesy (in the best kind of way), but also more flavorful than most that I’ve had.  One Sunday afternoon not too long ago, we were at my parents’ house and she was whipping up a batch for a family dinner.  It happened to be getting close to dinnertime (yet dinner was not close to being ready!) and I was in serious need of a snack. (more…)

Hazelnut Cookies {Vegan & Gluten-Free} & A Bob’s Red Mill Giveaway

Sunday, November 13th, 2011

A friend recently asked me for a gluten-free recipe for cookies.  When asked what kind, he said, I don’t know…something nutty…or maybe chocolaty; definitely something that goes well with coffee!  I aim to please, and these cookies are all of the above. (more…)

Rockin’ Coffee Review & Giveaway

Monday, November 7th, 2011

My sister was always sneaking coffee when she was a kid.  My mom would never let us have it growing up (not sure if it’s true or not, but she always threatened that it would stunt our growth!), which was fine with me since I didn’t like it in the slightest.  My sister on the other hand was a little junkie for it, stealing sips or even swigs whenever she could. (more…)

White Cheddar Muffins & A Giveaway {$50 VISA Giftcard!}

Tuesday, November 1st, 2011

Where do you get your recipe inspiration?

The other day I was at the grocery store.  Nothing fancy (there still isn’t even Whole Foods or a Trader Joe’s in my area, if you can believe that!), just my regular grocery store (picking up the bread that I mentioned in this post, actually).  When I saw them looking up at me. (more…)
