What we’re eating // week of april 29
Here’s a look at what we were eating this week. I did a bit better job of tracking what we changed and amounts – especially for the baby food. (Click to enlarge.) Breakfast and Lunch (and Vivi’s snack) are all pretty routine. She has 1/4 cup of oatmeal mixed with 1 teaspoon of almond butter [...]
What we’re eating // week of april 22
Better late then never right? As promised, here is a look at our menu from last week. I’ve also included the proposed menu for this week – and will post a wrap up again on Sunday. For reals this time. Here’s the menu from the week of April 22. (Click to enlarge.) Breakfast and lunch [...]
fridge revolution
I’ve mentioned a few times how we are working on becoming more health conscious – eating good, but extremely healthy food. This is in large part due to the fact that the little lady is eating more and more and the desire to keep her food as hormone free and nutrition dense as possible. Our [...]
‘real’ food + babies + us
Before Vivi was born I scoffed at people that made their own baby food – it must take so long, who has the time, it can’t be that much different than the store food – all things I may have said. When she started eating solids a couple months ago, she started on store bought [...]
BBQ chicken pizza
WOW. Of all the pizzas we’ve made so far this year, this is by far the best one. It’s a great use for leftover wings (we made it after the Super Bowl) but I’d say it is worth getting a small order just for this. If you don’t want to pick up wings, toss a [...]
easy kale, white bean & italian sausage soup
Big pots of soup are quite possibly my favorite winter time treat. They are (sometimes) easy to pull together and you can make enough to last until leftover night or freeze for another day. This is one of our household favorites and is pretty healthy. Of course, I like to pair it with some bread [...]
12 Days of Christmas: Give a little LOVE
If you are reading this post, you are (probably) in America, have food on your table, a TV in your living room and more blessings than you can count. Before I start posting gift guides for more things we really don’t need but are still fun to give (and get), I thought I’d post a [...]
At the Table :: Peanut Butter Cookies
There are few desserts that I love more than these peanut butter cookies and none that are as easy to make and keep on hand. The only downside? The likely increase in your waistline from constantly snacking on them. Ingredients: 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened but not melted 1 1/2 cup chunky peanut butter 3/4 [...]
At the Table :: A Perfect, Simple Hummus Recipe
I simply adore hummus. I don’t adore the price tag on the grocery store packages, though. It is such a simple dish – and as it turns out, it is simple to make as well. At about $1.50* per batch (or so depending on your store prices), this simple hummus recipe is perfect for adding [...]
Book Club :: August
Since moving and the general disarray that comes with it, I am finally back on track with my reading list. I am beyond excited for these books – some I’ve had on my list for some time now, and others recently popped up on my radar. Paris in Color, Nichole Robertson :: I’ve flipped through [...]
