Brent and Jenn Snow Buddies

Consistency or Cutting Carbs?

February 6, 2013 in Musings

No magic pill.

My jeans are finally fitting better. I haven’t made an effort to lose weight since I trained for my RKC weekend. I’m generally pretty comfortable in my body (most of the time) but over the last year as we traveled I ate more calories than than I burned. Pretty simple.  I wasn’t fat…not by a […]

Grain and Gluten Free Fried Green Tomatoes (with eggs)

August 22, 2012 in Recipes

This grain and gluten free fried green tomato recipe isn’t really a recipe. It’s more of a fried green tomato experiment that happened to work out. I always refer to these posts as How to I Make ____ because really how many ways can you make a fried green tomato? Tomatoes, breading, salt, pepper, egg, and oil. […]

Water Kefir – How to Make the HEALTHY Soda Alternative

April 6, 2012 in Recipes

Glass of Water Kefir

We all know that soda isn’t good for us but giving it up can be hard. Are there any healthy alternatives to soda? You betcha!

Sapodilla Smoothie

Sapodilla Fruit from Robert is Here

When I was at the Robert is Here fruitstand, I saw a new-to-me fruit called Sapodilla. Mistaking them for potatoes, I would have walked past had I not read the sign.  “Tastes like a pear with brown sugar!” What??? Yes, please! Brent and I ate most of them plain for dessert. Sapodillas are soft and creamy. They […]
