A few months ago Lucy determined that “bread” is not part of the dessert or candy category (things she decided to give up for 2020), and fell in love with pumpkin bread. It is interesting (and tough) to try to teach Lucy where things are in the kitchen. I feel…

My friend is the best baker in the whole wide world. And when she first brought these cookies over to us we were wigging out they were so good. It makes my mouth water to think of these babies. So I figured I better share the recipe here because, 1)…

I don’t think I have ever posted this recipe, which is crazy because we make it so much. Claire and I had it on “repeat” probably twice a week in the fall before all the Christmas craziness. Now that things have calmed down we need to get back on it…

This is the time of year when I am in love with everything pumpkin. So when I came across this recipe on r2sense last year (I think they just posted again too…and it looks like the recipe is originally from weight watchers), I decided I better give them a try.…

I’m getting ready to post about our Eyre reunion. For anyone who has read about past reunions (you can see them if you click on “deliberate mothering,” then “having a plan,” then at the bottom you’ll see “Eyrealm Reunions”), you know we take food very seriously up there at the…

…I figure I better share this one. I just love salads that are kind of filled with “bounty” on Thanksgiving.  Not sure how else to describe that, but I love that this one has sunflower seeds and couscous…and even dried cranberries and dehydrated corn…not sure why that makes it “Thanksgiving-ish”…

We are trying to bump up our healthy eating around here. Wait, do I sound like a broken record on that or what?   It is always a work in progress. I think I mentioned before that Max challenged Lucy to a sugar deal from clear over in Taiwan to…

I’ve been pretty bad at posting my “recipe Thursdays” lately.  Some day I’ll get back on track with that because I love having recipes that are easy to look up no matter where I am.  I only put my very favorites on here.  And I figured sugar cookies better be…
