My recipes lately have been focused on Thanksgiving.  So far, I’ve tried out a dessert and a side, and had plans for another side this week until I ended up hanging out at Mom and Dad’s longer than anticipated (I feel so lucky to be able to work from wherever my computer is!). But it [...]

It was a busy weekend for our little family! With fall arriving and me wanting to soak up every second of it, we decided Friday to take a trip to Blowing Rock.  Blowing Rock is an adorable little town in the NC mountains, and it was picturesque, as the leaves were just beginning to change. [...]

Fall Vegan Deliciousness

September 13, 2011

Because I can’t talk about being on baby watch for another day… Yesterday my restlessness induced me into the kitchen.  Although it felt good to get in there, I didn’t feel up for a long laboring effort at the stove.  So I tried a new method on a recipe I found on the Whole Foods [...]
