I finally found time to make a new recipe. A tabouli recipe. If you want to call it a recipe. Tabouli is sort of a like a caprese salad. There are pretty standard ingredients with a few variations among recipes. Although, by necessity, mine makes a slight divergence. When I was at Robert is Here, I bought […]

As you may have read, eating on the road has been a bigger adjustment than I had anticipated.  The longer we are on the road the easier it becomes or perhaps it’s just that we’ve been in Florida where there is a year round growing season. Either way, I thought I’d share some of the more […]

Yesterday, my mom took the boys to the beach so Brent and I slipped away for a little date to a nearby Worden Farms Market at the Fisherman’s Village in Punta Gorda. The farmer’s market a great place to talk, get fresh air, support local businesses, and spend money we would spend anyway at the […]

This morning I lay in bed wondering about the state of my immune system and pancreas. That’s what most people think about upon waking, no? Since moving into an RV and hitting the road many things have changed.  I wake up to different surrounding almost every day.  I have a small refrigerator.  I have about […]

Free. I  love free.  Especially something of value for free. This week, I twice mentioned my favorite cookbook Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook that Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats.  The author, Sally Fallon is also a co-founder of The Weston A. Price Foundation,  a foundation that is “dedicated to resorting nutrient-dense food to […]

Intense workouts?  Vintage inspired Tulle clothing?  C.S. Lewis?  Beef heart?  Liver? Yes, yes, yes, yes, and I guess…well..yes. I wasn’t surprised when I found out blogger buddy, Charlotte from The Great Fitness Experiment (who happens to be one of the the funniest and most talented writers I know) and I had “matching organs” in our freezers.  After […]

Feeding my family high quality food is a priority.  Even on a budget. Enter the humble legume. Cheap, easy, versatile? Check. Protein, vitamins, minerals, fiber? Yep, it’s all there.  Thank you, little beans. I buy beans in bulk and cook big batches at a time.  It’s easy and saves me a lot of money and […]

It’s time for my How to How I Make series.  First off, kombucha tea! How to How I Make Kombucha Tea The first time I tried kombucha tea from a store bought bottle I shuddered.  Not only was a taken aback by the taste, I couldn’t believe I was paying $2+  per bottle. Yikes! Over […]

Today I went to Costco for the 4th time in 4 days.  It was a test of character. A test of strength. (Functional fitness, baby!) A test self-control. (Oh how I would love to sit down on my cart and eat that entire bag of cranberries right there in the parking lot.) I’ve been busy […]

Tuesdays are one of my favorite days. Tuesday mornings I pick up my CSA produce box and my raw milk. After I get my produce box I lovingly lay it out on my table and take a million pictures from every angle as if I have never seen a piece of fruit before plan my menu for […]
