  • RECIPE: Veggie “Pizza” Bowl featuring Cheezy Pizza Sauce

    Have you noticed that most of my recipes are of dips and sauces? Haha! Well, we use them a few times a week, whether over pasta, for veggies or potatoes.

  • RECIPE: Cheezy Garlic Tahini Sauce

    If you know me, you know I LOVE tahini. Love might even be an understatement…more like obsessed.

  • Love, Strength and Learning

    On the night you were born, the moon smiled with such wonder that the stars peeked in to see you and the night wind whispered, “Life will never be the same.” Because there had never been anyone like you… ever in the world. {{On the Night You Were Born by Nancy Tillman}} These last few…

  • REVIEW: February Favorites

    Another month has flown by and we’re getting closer to spring! I hope everyone had a nice February! We completely lucked out here in Bend with the gorgeous, mild weather – I cannot get over all the snow and cold temps the rest of the country got hit with. Every week we got out on…

The last couple of months I’ve been busy making delicious recipes from blogs I follow. I’m a HUGE believer…
