Happy Sunday everyone. I don’t know about you – but I am freezing, and I’m wearing a few layers. I am pretty much ready for winter to be over. However, tomorrow they are forecasting a high of 47 degrees – gosh, that is almost 50! I am excited. The Red Sox are in Spring training…… Continue reading Sunday Strawberry and Saturday Night Pesto…
I never knew using left over vegetables could be so easy… For the last two days (Monday night’s dinner and today for lunch) I have been enjoying my left over vegetable stir fry, baked tofu and brown rice dish: This was a seriously good meal that I had just made on a whim.

This morning I have searched almost my entire house for a cookbook. It is yet to be found. My mom has started searching, too. I am so annoyed and confused. I just cannot figure out where my new Bittman cookbook has walked off to. I have not even made a recipe from it yet! :(…… Continue reading If you were a cookbook, where would you hide?
Ok, so I made the granola bars today! They are pretty good and 100% addictive. I did a lot of chopping. Almonds, apricots, I even chopped up a few chocolate chips… Mixed the apricots, almonds with granola and brown rice cereal. I heated up the almond butter and agave on the stove top until they…… Continue reading Granola Bars…

When I am nervous I tend to cook and bake. I was (and still am) super nervous today. I do not like it when the Patriots play the Jets. I do not like it when the Patriots play the Steelers, either – but I am taking it one game at a time. I am not…… Continue reading Football
I have fallen right back into one of my old habits during the last couple of days of my vacation. Naturally, I am such a night person. Especially when it comes to reading, writing and blogging. I am so much more productive after 10:30 or 11 o’clock in the evening. However, during the week (when…… Continue reading Old Habits Die Hard…

Hey All. For as long as I can remember, I have been wanting to make a strata. I have had strata once or twice in my life. I have no idea why I always think about it when I am contemplating things to bake. I always remember the scene in The Family Stone when Sarah…… Continue reading My First Strata!
It is still so hot. But I’ve managed to do some eating, just barely. Breakfast yesterday: Chobani vanilla yogurt with blueberries, Kashi go lean crunch and a sprinkle of cinnamon: Along side a piece of Arnold’s double protein bread and raspberry jam. The next thing I had to eat was at dinner – and it…… Continue reading Still Hot…
