The Perfect Cookie for Every Occasion

I’ve always wanted to have a special drawer in my house full of beautiful hostess gifts to have ready when a thank you card just doesn’t seem like enough. It would be filled with all the adorable little things you find in a boutique, candle store or soap shop that you never have an excuse...

Thinking outside the chicken box: Chicken Livers with Dijonnaise Sauce and Charred Corn

In America, we eat a lot of chicken, and even more corn.  But we don’t eat these great foods the way we should.  Chicken is often loaded with antibiotics, contaminated with pathogens and downright flavorless.  As for corn, don’t get me started… alright, since you’re forcing my hand.  The corn produced in the U.S. is mostly consumed...

Eggs Benedict on Polenta Cakes with Pesto Hollandaise ~ Gluten Free

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23   I’m pretty sure my favorite breakfast food is eggs benedict. Perfectly poached eggs with velvety hollandaise sauce…doesn’t get much more delicious than that.

This recipe features the goodness of lentils and an array of vegetables, but also a base of a homemade bone marrow broth. You don’t have to make the broth, but it is what makes this recipe especially nutritious. Why should I eat this? Did you know that lentils are a fantastic source of folate? Folate...

This weekend my adorable daughter is completing a week of Drama Camp and performing in a full production that we are looking forward to. We are having a Weston A. Price Foundation local chapter potluck on Saturday then enjoying a...

Sourdough Biscuits

I am loving my explorations in sourdough! If you follow and/or joined my sourdough club you will find everything you need to get started with sourdough. (There was a little pun there…you need purchase a starter to get started. Man, it doesn’t stop.) Once you have a happy, healthy little starter, you can start making delicious sourdough...
