meal plan – july 14, 2012
Saturday is when I tend to have time to think through what to eat in the coming days and subsequent week. I bust out the vegetarian cookbooks, visit the downtown library stacks for inspiration and check out what is buried in my Evernote stash of bookmarked recipes. I also try to keep my actual calendar […]

meal plan – june 25, 2012
Those of you that follow my tweets are well aware that this past weekend was devoted to putting up 40 pounds of tomatoes (aka #tomatolandia). I’ll have a wrap-up post on that later in the week but for now, need to snap back into the reality that is Monday morning. The leftover stash is a bit […]

This summer is going to be interesting – both of us (the parents in the equation) are working from home and the 8yo is in the house full-time with the exception of a handful of half-day camps here and there. We seem to be managing to get everything done but our days are NON-STOP busy. […]

I usually reserve a full quarter of a watermelon to ensure we have enough to stash for hot days when simple cut fruit just isn’t cold enough. Watermelon Popsicles Cut fruit away from rind. Place fruit in blender and puree […]

reeling it back in | meal plan | june 14, 2011
I am going to spend the next couple of months wrangling our food expenses back down to a reasonable place. Feels like our food budgets have been spiraling out of control with lots of extra trips to the grocery store and more instance of food-gone-bad than I care to admit. ¡No mas! I am buying […]
MoreCSA – april 15, 2011
I ate a salad for dinner tonight with mixed greens from our @JBGorganic CSA box. I’m not sure what came over me, but all of a sudden I was really struck by how fortunate we are to know exactly where our salads were this morning. Like, how amazing is that?! I relished every bite and […]
