Not too long ago it was Benzo's birthday. Being the awesome wife that I am, I decided to get up early and make him breakfast in bed. It is finally feeling like fall around here and to me fall = pumpkin. I absolutely love pumpkin and had cracked a can open the day before to… Continue reading Birthday Pumpkin Pancakes

Grilled PB&B
What do you get when you put bread, butter, bananas and peanut butter together with a skillet? Grilled peanut butter and banana sandwich of course! I came home from work last night and could not decide on dinner. Benzo was gone so I was on my own. While I was thinking I ate a whole bunch… Continue reading Grilled PB&B

All members are small… Continue reading Kansas City Food Artisans
Trash to Treasure
So this past weekend I was on a cleaning frenzy in the kitchen and came across an old baguette. I had bought the baguette at least a week ago (if not more than that) with the intention of making brushetta. Well the brushetta never materialized and the baguette sat on my counter. And sat. And… Continue reading Trash to Treasure

The past week and a half has been a little crazy for me. First we were… Continue reading Washing Your Dishwasher
Blog Assembly: August 2010
Hi there! As you can tell I haven't blogged since last Friday. Benzo and I had a sort-of unplugged weekend while we went on church camp retreat (we had our phones but not computers). It was a great time. A whole bunch of people went to stay at a camp (adults and kids) and we… Continue reading Blog Assembly: August 2010
Usefulness of Ice Cube Trays
Two blogs I read this week talked about making green juice and freezing it into ice cubes to use later in smoothies and such. The first one I read was The Domestic Vegan and the second one was No Meat Athlete. I thought these blogs were great and at first I just planned on adding… Continue reading Usefulness of Ice Cube Trays
Much Ado About Eggs
