This year I am pregnant which is making it that much worse. Just a smell of those spices, or a picture on a box and I am hooked already. Another little fact about me is that I hate being generic. I have to have a different recipe for everything than everyone else, I always “spike” mine with this and that so it is my recipe alone. At first I hesitated to share my secrets but why shouldn’t everyone have the best?
Over 23 million people in the United States suffer with the disease and face scary complications such as heart and kidney disease, stroke, blindness, neuropathy, and amputation or even death. Some in the statistics we read about include small children who live different lives than the rest of us trying to stay as healthy as they can. Parents worry at all times – constantly checking on their little ones.
Since cooking is one of my favorite things to do I am always on the look out for new recipes or ingredients.
There are endless possibilities for delicious Nutella recipes!
I have recently been introduced to Nutella, a spread made of hazelnuts, chocolate, and skim milk. I love the taste of hazelnut anything so I had to find some recipes I could use it in. What I found was that the amount of Nutella recipes are endless. There are so many things you can use it for including breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert.
Thanks for visiting! If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed. Have a look around and make sure to leave us a comment or feedback.I think these days we are all trying to eat a little healthier as well as trying to get our kids to. Here are two easy to make kids recipes that your kids will love and they will never even think of them as being “healthy.” One of Maddie’s, and I think most kids’ favorite food is spaghetti. For a couple [...]
What better way is there to end a long work week and head into a hot weekend than with a discussion about ice cream? I think pretty much every kid loves ice cream! Some more than others, but still most do. Maddie is no different. Before she could even speak well, she had honed in on our spelling of the word and started calling it by those three letters. She would ask for i-c-e. We figured that since she knew what we were spelling, we may as well call it [...]
One tasty benefit of summer is the large, beautiful zucchinis you can purchase (or grow) from the farm. Some may not realize the potential for one of these monster zucchinis as they are not the most scrumptious to cook and serve. However, many bakers identify this as the time to break out their zucchini nut bread recipe! Why does it have to be a big, farm size zucchini you may wonder. It doesn’t have to be, but since they are not all that good for eating, they are great for [...]
When Maddie was younger and getting to the age when most children are starting to put together sentences, it was pointed out to me by my family and her pediatrician that she wasn’t “behind” but could be doing better with her vocabulary. I knew this myself but I also knew the main reason: not all children develop exactly the same. Some walk at 8 months and some at 15 months. Is one behind? No, they just do things at their own decided pace. Maddie is one of the children who [...]
One great thing that summer brings is local, organic, farm fresh food that is super delicious and much better than anything you can buy in a market. If it must be 100ºF out at least there are some benefits, right? Well, on one of these 100ºF days we decided that we just had to get some sweet corn and other great produce that our local farm provides …so we made the trip. Maddie was very excited the whole way, asking when we were going to get to the “farm” because [...]
You must love how the mind of a two year old works. It is so simple and yet so smart, the complete opposite of an adult’s. We have a recipe that has been in the family for probably fifteen years now, I know – not long compared to some hundred year old family recipes, but it’s long enough. It calls for only four ingredients but it is addicting and divine. We call them peanut butter balls, I call them peanut butter truffles as it sounds more sophisticated. How to make [...]
