Vegetable Pancakes for Baby
Feeding babies. For something that sounds like it should be so simple, I had no idea just how complicated it could be. One day baby loves everything you put in front of her. The next day, no vegetable will pass her lips. What gives baby? Food is important to me. As I have gotten older [...]

Quinoa Stuffed Bell Peppers
Russ and I were talking about stuffed peppers recently. I for one had never had a stuffed pepper, he had, but had horrifying memories of a green bell pepper filled with ground beef and nothing more.

The thought of spending that time on dinner now [...]

Pumpkin Bread Pudding
Lucy and I went to a meetup play-date and potluck today. The theme was Autumn, so this morning I threw together this pumpkin bread pudding. It turned out absolutely delicious, which I was very pleased to find out, since it was the first time I made it. I guess you could say that is risky [...]
