This Spice Cake with Penuche Frosting is legendary in my family. For as long as I can remember, it has been my dad’s favorite cake. There were several times a year when the cake was made and enjoyed. When we made it growing up, it was always from a cake mix. The only alteration […]
So it’s finally summer around our neck of the woods and all my kids can think about is homemade ice cream and popsicles and how many hours they can spend outside playing each day. All good things, I think. Isn’t that really what summer is about? We ushered in summer vacation with the inaugural […]

I attribute that to all the goodies layered in the bowl with the chickpeas. Aren’t the layers pretty? It makes it look a little more special, […]
Pictures and text by Lindsey Rose Johnson. Vegetable rice rolls are one of my favorite go-to gluten-free snacks, lunches, dinners.
