Tasty Tuesday – Spaghetti Squash
I admit I have fallen off the exercise wagon and feel like crap because of it. Yesterday I decided I needed to do something I have NEVER done before I went for a run. I put on the exercise shorts, te iPod and ran/walk to Eminem. I probably looked like a fool because no one looks … Continue reading

Tasty Tuesday – Homemade Cream Cheese
It has been almost 2 weeks since I last used the microwave… I will say that is one way to ensure non-usage when it takes longer to clean it out than to cook food – lol. The recipe I am going to share is from my new cookbook “Nourishing Traditions” I modified the recipe because … Continue reading
Tasty Tuesday – Hot Milk Cake
Yesterday was my birthday and the Princess told Jeff I needed a cake for my birthday. I can’t say I minded the cake thing, even though I ate my way through 10 states. I told Jeff just pull his mom’s Hot Milk Cake Recipe and make that it is easy and is a really good … Continue reading
