I'll admit it scares me a bit. She is gaining independence, staying home alone and starting to go places by herself. I know the purpose of raising kids is to give the tools to be great adults, but it just seems like it goes so fast. Happy birthday (and a coffee cake). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I have always had a love for w...

I just couldn't decide what to call this post. The very last thing I did with my week of roasted vegetables was to make a sauce out of the scraps. In An Everlasting Meal. She calls it a pesto, but I didn't think it was quite tangy enough to fit the connotation of a pesto. The cooked veggies will then keep in the fri...

One day, while I was gone for the weekend, my husband sent me a text message, letting me know that we were subscribed to a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Box. And at that exact moment, my stress began. Not so easy. I had never even heard of a daikon radish before this, I had to google bok choy to make sure that was indeed what I was staring at, and I was sure I was going...

Box has been. shall we say. generous in its helpings of zucchini and summer squash for quite a few weeks now. It is, , shall we say. a challenge to keep up with it all. But those things are really really good and still they won't eat them). So, zucchini muffins it is. Except how many time can I make them without losing my mind? So I put a little twi...

If you were to ask my grandmother (or my mother - or myself, for that matter) if she was "making chicken for dinner," she would grin and then reply, "Only chickens can make chickens. I am cooking. Chicken for dinner, though." The same would go for "making eggs" or "making bacon.". Not something you grow. A cucumber and made. They aren't exactly pickles. But they aren't just cucumbers either. The...Happy...

I can't think of a single reason why not. So there you have it. The best. Right? Come along as I check out some Sangria options. Adapted from Brown Eyed Baker. Slice one of the oranges and the lemon into 1/4 inch thick slices. Add them and the sugar to a pitcher. Muddle the fruit and sugar together until the sugar is m...I hav...

cooking out of the box: chocolate peanut butter bars
http://vegitationagitation.blogspot.com/2012/07/chocolate-peanut-butter-bars.html
Read The Story behind the Box. Click here to read the history behind the box. Monday, July 2, 2012. Chocolate peanut butter bars. There are times when I wish I lived in America's heartland. I would love to have a huge yard and plenty of space around my home. I would have a long driveway and a big swath of lawn in front of my house. The house would be up on a little hill so the view from my big front porch would be beautiful. Maybe I would be overlooking some sort of river or lake. So for now, I'll stay r...

Read The Story behind the Box. Click here to read the history behind the box. Saturday, April 28, 2012. I had a friend over for breakfast the other day. It was such a nice break! She came and we chatted for a couple of hours. My kids were all at school, her preschooler took advantage of a kids' house with no kids in it (meaning she had full control and never had to wait her turn. Bliss). It was such a wonderful escape from the constant running around that I have done for the past few weeks. Still, though...

cooking out of the box: Dilly Beans

Read The Story behind the Box. Click here to read the history behind the box. Friday, July 6, 2012. What happens when you take a man who loves pickles and introduce him to a woman who loves pickles? They get married and have three (adorable) children, and not a single one of those (amazing) children will touch a pickle. Which means, of course, more for the man and the woman. I like to make dilly beans for lots of reasons. 1 I get TONS of green beans in my Abundant Harvest box. 4 pounds of green beans.

Each night, we came trudging into the house, peeling filthy socks off our feet, dropping the camp t-shirts into a pile, and flopping onto the couch. Dinner needed to be something simple, and something quick for these kids who had run, climbed, swam, and hiked all day long in the hot sun. They were hungry. And tired. not a great combination. These turkey burgers did the trick! The recipe came from Bake Bree.
