Two days ago, I mentioned the generous and wonderful bounty basket that I received from Relay Foods. It was bursting with fresh greens, strawberries, and mint–a wonderful offering, if you ask me. I’ve already whipped up one delicious salad with it. But with all of the fresh and beautiful strawberries I had on hand, I [...]

Hi friends! I’m so very sorry to have been MIA. As you may have seen via Facebook, my wallet and computer were stolen last week. I am so grateful for how kind and generous everyone has been to me since it happened—what a flood of love and concern! It’s an upsetting experience, to be sure, [...]

It feels a little odd to be posting about a blueberry carob smoothie at this time of year, when berries are no longer seasonal. I aspire to eat seasonally, I really do, but it’s hard for me to curtail my love of certain foods, even for a few months at a time. I eat berries [...]

Yes, you heard that right: green apple, pumpkin, and quinoa. In a smoothie. What can I say? Put me in a room with some pumpkin purée that needs to be used up, and I can’t be held accountable for the odd combinations and creations that will follow.
