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
I found this article on MSNBC yesterday and I wanted to post a link to it because I think it's really important. In light of all the egg recalls in the news you may be wondering what types of eggs you should buy. Here's the link to the article: Worried About Bad Eggs? How to Buy… Continue reading Much Ado About Eggs

Hein? Un Ananas?
Hein? Un ananas? means Huh? A pineapple? in French. You probably don't find that very funny. But if you were in my senior year French AP class you would find it hilarious. We even made t-shirts (puff paint!) with pineapples on them and that phrase. It's funny because when you say it in French it… Continue reading Hein? Un Ananas?

Recycled Wrapping Paper
Today I went to a baby shower for a good friend. All the guests were asked to bring a children's book to help start the baby's library. I thought that was a great idea. After church this morning I stopped by Borders and picked up a book called Bee & Me. 🙂 I wanted to get… Continue reading Recycled Wrapping Paper

What is it Wednesday: Soba Noodles
Last week I wrote about homemade lettuce wraps. In that recipe I used soba noodles instead of the dried bean thread noodles, which I couldn't find. As I was cooking and assembling the wraps I thought, what are soba noodles anyway? Because to be honest, they look just like whole wheat spaghetti to me: From Wikipedia… Continue reading What is it Wednesday: Soba Noodles

Millions of Peaches
On Saturday morning one of my neighbors came by to tell us that his peach trees were producing and to let him know if we wanted any peaches. I didn't have to think very long before I said "YES".

Organic? Or Just the Way it Should Be?
Tonight I picked my first real tomato harvest. The tomato plants have been a little slow to produce this year. I'm not sure if it's because I transplanted them a little late this spring or if they are having a hard time with the heat. Luckily we had a pop up thunderstorm blow through yesterday… Continue reading Organic? Or Just the Way it Should Be?
