Until her party this weekend, it didn’t quite seem true that my baby is ONE.  But now she is!  Because those 48 hours and cake made all the difference. The day of her birthday was so so gorgeous out.  We … Read More

30-Minute Dal (Indian Lentils)
Post

Even with meal planning, there are days when I just get behind or failed to plan ahead or am just plain feeling lazy.  This is the meal that I make on those days.  It’s quick (30 minutes to the table), … Read More

Whole Wheat Orange Walnut Muffins
Post

It will probably shock you to hear that I’m not the biggest muffin fan in the world.  Usually they’re too sweet, too bready, too sticky, too…something.  Evidently I am pickier than I thought. But these MUFFINS.  Gracious.  A few weeks … Read More
