Peanut Butter-Banana Muffins

Saturday, August 18th, 2012

I have a confession.  I am way too much of a perfectionist when it comes to this blog…and it is keeping me from blogging.  Apart from the fact that the summer season keeps my schedule inundated with spa work and private massage clients, my main excuse for not blogging is the perfectionist block. I have […]

Gluten-Free Morning Glory Muffins

Friday, April 27th, 2012

Morning Glory Muffins make me think of weekend breakfasts with my father, stepmother, sister and grandmother.  Before I started to make changes to my approach to food, I remember whole wheat morning glory muffins and hot chocolate with whipped cream.  We would meet our grandmother at the diner one town over and catch up on […]

Turmeric Smoothie

Monday, February 20th, 2012

Whew!  Its been a busy week…and especially a busy weekend!  Who knew that President’s Day was a big vacation weekend?  Well I am guessing some of you out there actually did…but me?  I lived in a foreign country for the first 5 years of my adult life…away from American holidays and American school vacations.  And […]

Gluten Free Gingerbread Loaf

Friday, December 23rd, 2011

We have had some magical snowy weather lately here in Santa Fe.  Last night when I was returning from work late at night, the snow was just starting to stick to the ground, there were very few people out on the roads and the streetlights were illuminating the flurries of white.  It was so sweet.  […]

Apple Ginger Squash Muffins – Gluten-Free

Monday, October 31st, 2011

Happy Halloween! That’s it though…that is about as far as my Halloween celebration goes.  You see, I am not big on Halloween.  I am not big on costumes, candy and things that are scary.  Costumes for me involve dressing up and feeling fancy…so basically I would just like to go out to a nice dinner […]

Tropical Cilantro Smoothie

Saturday, October 29th, 2011

Mom I know you are probably making some faces right now…maybe a few sounds affects too.  Something to the sentiment of “yuck!” or “eww!”  But keep reading, because I think you are going to like this. You see, my mother hates cilantro.  She says it tastes like soap in her mouth, and I know she […]

Warm Chia Seed Nog – Dairy Free

Monday, October 24th, 2011

As soon as the weather gets cool, I am ready to start enjoying my homemade “egg nog”. I think this year it was actually early October that I made my first cup because we had an unusual cold-snap for a few days, and the instinct kicked in. We had a huge rain storm throughout the […]

Gluten-Free Chocolate Muffins

Friday, July 29th, 2011

Chocolate Banana Bread…becomes muffins!  Ta-da! I have to say, I think that this is a genius move…not only because it keeps me from eating a whole loaf of sweet bread in one sitting (because now I have “portions” with each muffin) but also because these muffins can totally double as cupcakes.  Personally, I don’t really […]

Gluten-Free Buckwheat Waffle Recipe

Friday, June 17th, 2011

Did it work?  Did this sexy photo of gluten-free buckwheat waffles distract you from the Strawberry Rhubarb Sauce mess in the kitchen? Was I doing too many things at once?  Probably, but sometimes I come up with so many fun ideas that when I finally get in the kitchen I get a little “gung-ho”. These […]

Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp

Monday, May 23rd, 2011

Lately I have been wondering why I haven’t seen rhubarb at the Santa Fe Farmer’s Market.  I feel like I have seen other bloggers making rhubarb deliciousness, and was wondering where it could be.  I am used to rhubarb being a symbol of springtime, and finally discovered it on Saturday at a local farmer’s stand.  […]
