A sleepy good morning to everyone. Our little non-sleeper…is sleeping even less. I didn’t think it was possible. But it seems that waking up at 2am…and not really going back to sleep is just fine with Abram. We’re kind of struggling trying to figure this out. We try orajel, Tylenol, tummy drops, diet changes, rocking, …
Caesar Dressing
I’ve never really been a huge fan of caesar salads. I never really cared for the dressing. But my tastes have changed a lot in the last few years. So recently when I was looking through NT I saw a recipe for caesar dressing. I decided to give it a shot. It was super easy …
Roasted Cauliflower Au Gratin
I don’t often make Rachael Ray recipes. In my opinion most of them have too many ingredients, require too many steps and generate too many dirty dishes. The food may be good, but it’s just not my style of cooking. I did, however, make one of her recipes for dinner last night – roasted cauliflower …
Meal Plans Week of 3-18-12
Looks like I’ve got my 5:30 am breakfast buddy today :\ We’re all healthy again…now on to another round of major teething. We’re also experiencing some crazy “winter” weather here…sunny and 80’s! We’ve been spending lots of time outside lately. I think everyone is a little out of sorts with the abrupt change in weather. …
Blurple Moon Ice Cream (Blue Moon Take Two)
I tried making blue moon ice cream last week. The ice cream was good…but it didn’t really taste like blue moon. I decided to try again this week. I did some more research and asked for opinions on flavor. From what I’ve read the flavor of blue moon is actually nutmeg! I never would have …
Soaked Graham Crackers
I’ve been making a lot of soaked baked goods lately. Through my recent experimenting I know that I handle them a lot better than unsoaked. One of my favorite foods is graham crackers. I used to live on them…the boughten, processed kind :\ But I haven’t been able to eat them in a long time, …
Birthday Reflections…My Life After GAPS
Another year has come and gone. It sure has been a crazy one. At this time last year I was quite pregnant and trying to prepare to be a mom of two. Now I have an almost 4 year old and a 10 month old. Life sure is busy! But I wouldn’t change a thing. …
Soaked Soft Pretzels
Between a sick baby and a power outage I haven’t had much computer time lately. So I’m trying to catch up on posts. Last week I made some soaked whole wheat bread again. But I made a bigger batch of dough and used half of it to make soft pretzels. It was an experiment…and it …
Meal Plans Week of 3-11-12
Good (early) morning. Never a fun morning when you lose an hour. And it seems that Abram only listens to the clock…it says 6, he’s up. Poor boy has had a rough week. He has been sick all week with a viral throat infection. He had a constant fever for 3 days, a sore throat …
Not-So-Blue Moon Ice Cream
I’ve been making a lot of ice cream lately. And now that my intense chocolate cravings have ended after adding lots of carbs back into my diet (thought that would never happen!) I’m finding that I actually really enjoy fruity ice creams. I don’t need overly sweet chocolatey/caramely ice cream flavors. Especially when I’m eating it …
