Granola cereal
I’ve tried to make granola bars in the past. I had found a recipe with excellent flavor but it was so sticky I had to eat it out of a cup. So, when 100 Days of Real Food recently referenced her 4/4/10 blog post with this granola recipe, I was so excited to make it, I immediately … Continue reading

I’d been wanting to try baking with spelt flour and finally found it at Cub in the natural foods section. I have to say, I prefer this to regular whole wheat flour. … Continue reading

Tonight, I had a pound of organic grass fed beef from Trader Joe’s … Continue reading

Grandma Jane’s pancakes, bacon, and applesauce
I don’t think I’ll ever make another pancake recipe. First of all, they’re Grandma Jane’s. Second, they’re delicious! My extended family has this most weekends when we’re together for breakfast but my family eats it for dinner, too! Honestly, who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner? I double this recipe.
