We’ve made it to the last week of May. This is the last week of dance class. Next week is the last week of school! That is just crazy. This week won’t be too crazy. We might go to a parade tomorrow. My daughter has a dentist appointment. The end of the week is filled …
Rhubarb Quinoa Breakfast Porridge (gluten free, dairy free, nut free, egg free)
You’ve made muffins and coffee cake and pie. But you still have rhubarb and don’t know what to do with it. How about serve it for breakfast? Rhubarb is a very versatile vegetable. If you pair it with a healthy, gluten free grain like quinoa you’ve got a power-packed breakfast. This breakfast porridge is slightly …
Decadent Dairy-Free Chocolate Fudge Pudding | Easy and Kid-Friendly!
Now that our milk share is back to the full three gallons a week I’ve been able to make some extra treats with it like ice cream, yogurt and pudding. It has been fun and delicious. But making all of these tasty dairy treats makes my little guy feel left out. Yesterday I ate some …
Gluten Free Dairy Free Rhubarb Crisp (nut free, egg free)
The earliest produce to pop up in our garden is rhubarb. It seems to be one of those strange vegetables that you either love or hate. Growing up I don’t think anyone in my family liked rhubarb. So I never even tasted it until a few years ago when I started baking it with it …
Meal Plans Week of 5-18-14
Good morning. It’s nice to see the sun shining again after a rainy week. It’s also very nice to be feeling (mostly) better again after being sick all week. At least I passed my glucose test with no problems. We are getting close to the end of the school year and our regular activities. It’s …
Hydrating Iced Cocoa
Last year I shared my “secret” recipe for hot chocolate that I drink daily. It tastes great and keeps me going all day. This past week we went from chilly to hot! Though now it’s back to chilly again. That’s Michigan for you. As much as I love my hot chocolate, when I’m dripping with …
Meal Plans Week of 5-11-14
Happy Mother’s Day! I was blessed to spend time with all of my “moms” yesterday – my mom, my mother-in-law, my grandmother and my big sister. We had a wonderful time celebrating my son’s third birthday. My goal for today now is to do as little as possible 🙂 Since last week was so busy …
Meal Plans Week of 5-4-14
Birthday week is finally here. I’m feeling a little better about it since I got so much done yesterday. I’m not sure my body was too happy. But at least this week shouldn’t be too stressful. This will be a pretty normal week for us. I have to pick up milk (we’re back to 3 …
What My Mommy Does
Are you a blogger? Do you have kids? Do they know what you do? I admit, I don’t really talk about blogging to my kids. My daughter is old enough to understand that I am a writer. But I don’t go into more detail than that. After all, it’s partly just a hobby (though it …
Three Ingredient Caramel Apple Salad (gluten free, dairy free)
Lately I’ve been serving fruit salad with our “breakfast for dinner” meals. I usually just do a mix of whatever fresh and frozen fruits we have on hand. We all enjoy it. But last week I wanted something different. I also wanted something my son could eat (he’s allergic to grapes, bananas and pears…and he …
