delicious seasonal eats
This salad…is amazing. I have been patiently awaiting the arrival of pea shoots in my CSA share. And this is the week! If you’ve never had pea shoots before, you are in for a treat. Pea shoots are cut before the pea plants flower, or sometimes include the flowers, which are also edible. Peas greens […]
Thanksgiving is over and I will breathe a huge sigh of relief when I’ve finally finished the dishes. I didn’t quite get to all of the side dishes I wanted to make. Instead I’ll make them throughout the next week or so. I have all of the ingredients after all. I started first with this […]
I promised you recipes for Thanksgiving and I’m going to make good on that promise! First up, a tasty Kale, Dried Porcini and Pine Nut Stuffing recipe that I think you’ll love. I started saving bread for stuffing months ago. I don’t like to use fluffy white or faux-wheat bread that come in long, square […]
We’ve entered my favorite time of year. Halloween is over. Let the Thanksgiving baking, roasting, cooking begin!

Awhile back a friend of mine told me that thyme was a great natural remedy for coughs and colds. I made this Honey Thyme Homemade Cough Syrup to reap the benefits of both honey and thyme in fighting off germs and helping to relieve those uncomfortable symptoms of colds. Health Benefits of Honey and Thyme […]
Becky and I are teaming up again. For October, our theme was Soups, Stews, and Chili. Check out her Red Wok Chili. I can’t wait to try it. I’m a girl who likes soup and salad. I like all kinds of soup and all kinds of salad. With Fall arriving, I’ve been excited to start […]
My husband and I have come to an agreement on healthy eating. Well, that’s not entirely true. He and I agree we need to get back to our super healthy eating habits, but we haven’t agreed on how to do it. I say juicing is key. He can barely gag it down. I say vegan. […]
Pictures and text by Lindsey Johnson Oh…you guys. I feel like I’m on a roll with my candy making adventures. This time it’s delectable caramel peanut butter fudge that is lit’rally the love child of soft, chewy caramel, and rich, creamy peanut butter fudge. So this caramel peanut butter fudge is good. Reeaaalllly good. So […]
