A few weeks ago I was feeling majorly under the weather. Downright ill actually.. The mail came and my husband brought me a package with my name on it. I’d forgotten I was expecting a new cookbook to review. And I got excited. Phoebe and Cara, the gals from Big Girls, Small Kitchen just published […]
Back to the Roots Mushroom Kit
I swore up and down that I didn’t like mushrooms until last month when I took a deep breath and defended my honor as a food blogger and self-proclaimed reformed picky eater and ate some. If I hadn’t had that experience and found out that I do indeed like mushrooms, I might not have said […]
Kelapo Coconut Oil.
The lovely ladies from Kelapo sent me some coconut oil to test out. Have you tried coconut oil? It’s better than butter. And yes, I did just write that. Kelapo supports fair trade practices and is the only coconut oil certified “Fair For Life” by the IMO Fair Trade Program. In fact, Kelapo is the […]
Yogurtland.
For our June Utah Bloggers Meetup, we went to the new Yogurtland in Orem. For you locals, it is located across from the University Mall on University Parkway and State Street. You can’t miss it. And you don’t want to. It’s awesome. I haven’t gotten into the new fro-yo craze so much because we make […]
Faustina+Deal Pickle
(I’ll be back with recipes soon. My computer is in the shop and it’s given me a great opportunity to catch up on things I’ve been wanting to tell you about. Even if you aren’t a Utahn, be sure to click below to get the recipe for that delicious panna cotta.) My darling friend, Holly, […]
Matsumoto Shave Ice.
For my whole life I’ve wanted to go to Hawaii. It was such a lucky trip thanks to generous people in my husband’s family. We needed a little break from our woes for a few days. (Still no job. Boo.) When I e-mailed Damaris and Hannah about places to eat while we were in Oahu, […]
Malia’s Pasteles
Guys, are you sick of me reliving Hawaii yet? I can’t believe what an impression Hawaii had on me. I am thinking of every possible way to get back there as soon as possible. Could I sell a kidney? Could I sell a car? To live there would be so nice. Anyone want to bankroll […]
Nature’s Indulgence Granola.
I want to tell you about my new favorite granola from a local company out of Ogden, Utah. Nature’s Indulgence is newish company run by women. I know! That makes me even more happy than knowing it’s from a local company that uses all natural ingredients. Nature’s Indulgence contacted me awhile back and asked if I’d […]
Springer Mountain Farms Chicken.
As you know, I’ve been making an effort to cut animal products out of my diet for health reasons. I don’t eat much meat anymore, if at all. One thing I still buy is chicken because everyone in our family loves it. When I do buy it, I try my hardest to make sure I […]
Communal + Breakfast
One of the best perks of being a blogger is going to blogger events with friends at great restaurants. Such was the case when I was invited to have breakfast at Communal this past Saturday morning. When I first heard Communal would be serving breakfast, I was overjoyed. I’ve patiently waited and waited. As my […]
