** Please now go to the “personal discovery of Pad Thai & Pad Thai Sauce” **Please check out the even more updated and simplified recipe. I did three versions of pad thai this past weekend. The first version is the definite winner. Again, I started getting too far away from original ratios and it lost […]
Fries because I needed comfort food, and I’m loving the cute purple potatoes from the market. Pad thai because I was on a mission to create a stand-by no-fail sauce recipe, and I absolutely adore pad thai. BONUS…I noticed fresh bean sprouts at the market this past Saturday. Hummus wraps were a lunch thing, my […]
Day #2 of the pad thai project was totally tasty. It didn’t have the WOW factor of the first day, but maybe once it’s good….it’s just good? This time I wanted to decrease the honey, especially because I ate the whole portion of sauce in one meal. Two tablespoons of honey just seems over the […]

The most recent included prune baby food, and that definitely doesn’t seem quite right. (although it was super tasty in its own right) […]

Whole grain bread, peanut butter & honey, cherries
It’s been a while since I’ve made loaf bread. I’ve been focusing on baguettes because somehow it seems easier. This was a successful attempt. Nice rise. Tasty. I think with this oven I’ll cook it probably 5-10 minutes longer next time, but it was still a great loaf. The little dude was obsessed. He would […]
Because the red curry was such a success with my little sous chef I wanted to create a yellow version as well. He loved the sauce but wasn’t as big a fan of the cooked yellow squash texture. (He does really like it raw.) I was in a hurry at the time, so yellow squash […]
