We are constantly cooking in our house and from a very early age we knew it was rubbing off on our Z. We put her tiny kitchen (we got the wood DUKTIG Play Kitchen one from Ikea, I highly recommend it) in our kitchen so we could all cook together at the same time. Well,Continue reading “Cooking with a Toddler”

Apple Galette
To continue on our post-apple picking baking adventures we made an Apple Galette over the weekend. And what is a galette, you ask? According to Wikipedia, the term galette is used to describe French round or freeform crust cakes. In layman’s terms a galette is a pie with no top baked flat instead of inContinue reading “Apple Galette”
Apple Chips
Apple chips. Baked Apple Slices. Whatever you call them – they. are. delicious! If you’re like us, then you’ll go apple picking at least once this fall and find yourself with a large amount of apples. I love to eat them as is but we were searching for a way to use our freshly pickedContinue reading “Apple Chips”
Tomato Sauce from Scratch
Every year around this time we find ourselves with an overabundance of tomatoes. We grow our own AND we belong to a CSA where we get pounds of tomatoes each week. We eat them in every way imaginable but this year we decided to take the plunge and make something with them we’ve been thinkingContinue reading “Tomato Sauce from Scratch”
KidNosh Review – La Posada in Arlington, MA
My first restaurant review was published on KidNosh (remember when I told you about KidNosh?). We frequent a pretty great Mexican restaurant in Arlington, MA that has an interesting menu, is good for kids, and is BYOB – La Posada. Catch my review of this restaurant here on KidNosh!
Toddler Nutrition
I would say our Z eats pretty well. But there are certainly times when it seems as though she on a hunger strike and will only want “friiiies” or “noodlz,” and well, those foods certainly aren’t nutritious. When the folks at HappyFamily asked if we’d like to try their new Super Nutrition Shakes for toddlers,Continue reading “Toddler Nutrition”
KidNosh
If you read this blog, you must know how much we enjoy food in this house. We cook a lot – trying new recipes weekly, if not even more frequent than that. What I don’t share all that often is how much we enjoy dining out, too! We are always on the hunt for aContinue reading “KidNosh”
Homemade Pickles
Do you know how crazy easy it is to make your own pickles? We received a large bag of pickling cucumbers (Kirby Cucumbers are their official name) from our CSA a couple weeks ago and there’s not much else to do with them other than make pickles, so we did! We bought a 2 literContinue reading “Homemade Pickles”
Berry Yogurt Popsicles
Popsicles seem to be a thing now, don’t you think? If you’re on Pinterest (follow me!) your feed has probably had some Popsicle “recipes” this summer because they are just SO easy to make. And you can fill them with whatever you want so they can even be – dare I say – healthy! IContinue reading “Berry Yogurt Popsicles”
Halibut with Roasted Beets
I’m giving you another recipe this week! Must mean one thing…it’s CSA season and we’re getting tons of random vegetables that we’re scouring the internet for interesting recipes to use them all. Today I bring you what to do if you have tons of greens (like kale or swiss chard) and beets, as we hadContinue reading “Halibut with Roasted Beets”
