This post will be short. I made this zucchini brownie bread while I was in Arizona this summer. It’s gluten-free, actually it’s grain-free. In fact, it doesn’t rely on nut flours to bake. I made this and decided the rest should go to my older brother Willy as he couldn’t have gluten. I haveContinue reading “Paleo Zucchini Brownie Bread for Willy”

Blueberry Tart for Biz
My dear friend Biz has her birthday in April, but blueberry season is in July & August. Her favorite dessert is blueberry pie. This year I wanted to specifically make a blueberry tart or pie just for her. I decided upon a tart as it’s easier to utilize with almond flour. This is aContinue reading “Blueberry Tart for Biz”
Rosemary Infused Honey Simple Syrup Spritzer
As the girls go down for a quiet time, I find my own solace by pulling out the ice to fill up the glass. What proceeds is the quart sized mason jar filled with rosemary infused honey simple syrup, which gets portioned out over the ice. I pour the water with gas over and popContinue reading “Rosemary Infused Honey Simple Syrup Spritzer”
Strawberry Shortcake with Almond & Coconut Flour
“Tay, let’s stop by Joe’s Garden real quick,” I say after dropping off V at preschool. It’s on the way home. We drive down the hill and around the bend to see the chipped white paint on the wooden sign announcing, “Strawberries.” It was destiny! My heart skips a little, and a surge ofContinue reading “Strawberry Shortcake with Almond & Coconut Flour”
Rhubarb Mint & Lime Spritzer
During the quiet hours, while one little is at preschool and the other is upstairs having her “quiet time,” I find myself sipping my second americano for the day. That second cup helps stave off the afternoon munchies. Well, unless your protruding belly is squishing your stomach & coffee sounds anything but appealing at 2:00Continue reading “Rhubarb Mint & Lime Spritzer”
Rhubarb-Lime Cardamom with Streusel Muffins
Muffins are simply cake for breakfast. My senior year of high school, Samantha would pick me up and depending on time, we would drive to a spot in town called Mostly Muffins, because they mostly had muffins there. I rarely got one, but I salivated over the one with cream cheese frosting. Like I said,Continue reading “Rhubarb-Lime Cardamom with Streusel Muffins”
Fresh Pineapple with Lime Zest & Raw Honey (Easter Recipes)
Food hasn’t tasted quite as good these past months, which is a bummer since I live by the mantra, “I live to eat!” Truly, I love to eat. I love food. One of the reasons I love my gym is because I’m surrounded by my people (those that don’t shy away from eating). But, what does a pregnant woman do when eating fluctuates, taste buds diminish and then Lent pops up?
Take comfort that this too shall pass and hope by the time Spring arrives, the taste bud glory will return. I’m beginning to see this, especially after slicing the fresh pineapple with my oldest hovering for a taste. The girls complain that I put the lime zest, but I assure them that honey drizzled over it will make it come alive. Our lunch consisted of Roasted Mustard Cauliflower, deviled eggs & this naturally sweet delight. We agreed the pineapple won the gold.
Grilled Apricots with Fresh Raspberries & Mascarpone Cheese with Salted Butter Cookies
I’m learning to say what I want in life. I’m learning that true, humble confidence is incredibly beautiful & attractive. I’m learning to step out of fear & embrace life, even if I fail. Jesus has been inviting me to eat at his Table everyday, in order that I would know more of myself &Continue reading “Grilled Apricots with Fresh Raspberries & Mascarpone Cheese with Salted Butter Cookies”
