Pomegranate Pistachio Tarts (Gluten-Free, Vegan)

December 11, 2015 21 Comments

These festive Pomegranate Pistachio Tarts are filled with maple-sweetened chocolate. Gluten-free, vegan, and refined sugar-free.

Our week got off to a rather unusual start. My husband, in one wrong move off the curb, broke his foot. We spent Sunday night in the ER with my family that rushed to help me get him there. And thank goodness for them, for as I, the healthy one with no broken foot, was a total wreck.

But my mom, taking note of her freaked out introverted daughter, chatted away with the nurses, x-ray technicians, and doctors that would swoop in and out, making friends with them all. It reminded me of the movie While You Were Sleeping (one of my favorites), and I promptly started making a mental list of the holiday movies we could watch while Heath is recuperating. …

Chocolate-Dipped Hazelnut Teff Cookies (Gluten-Free, Vegan)

December 4, 2015 24 Comments

These gluten-free and vegan Chocolate-Dipped Hazelnut Teff Cookies make for healthier, nutritionally packed cookie with the beloved nutella flavor!

Over this last year, teff has quickly become one of my favorite flours to play with. It’s tiny grains have a melt-in-your-mouth effect that I think is truly unique. Slightly nutty in flavor, I have found it is versatile in its uses and oh-so-good when paired with chocolate….

Bourbon Thyme Cocktail

November 25, 2015 20 Comments

An herbaceous twist on an Old Fashioned, this Bourbon Thyme Cocktail recipe uses a honey simple syrup infused with fresh thyme.

You may have noticed when you came to the site today that things are a little clearer, easier to read, and the archives a little more functional.

Yesterday, Kathryne helped me fix and tweak a few things on the site that have bothered me for months, but I have little skill or know how in making those changes.

She’s a pure wizard when it comes this stuff. So, nothing crazy, but hopefully your reading experience is a bit improved. (Thanks, Kathryne!)…

Carrot Pie with Walnut-Oat Crust (GF + DF)

November 21, 2015 19 Comments

This delicious Carrot Pie with Walnut-Oat Crust is sweetened with maple syrup and made dairy-free with almond milk for a healthy pie recipe.

I’m going to keep this post short and sweet as it has been one of those weeks where I am not quite sure how we got to Friday. I flew to New York City last night for work and, after much delay on the runway, finally arrived at the hotel around 3 am. With a sleepless end to the week, I don’t think I’ve ever been so happy to see the weekend….

Gluten-Free Cranberry Apple Crumble Bars

November 13, 2015 22 Comments

These Gluten-Free Cranberry Apple Crumble Bars are a delicious alternative to holiday pie. Easy recipe that is vegan and refined sugar-free!

A couple things of note happened in the last week or so. First, and I’m sorry for again talking baseball, but the Royals won the World Series (!!) and the parade to celebrate ended up being something our city has never seen. Estimates have it that close to 800,000 people made it to downtown Kansas City that day. The old, industrial loft space that we bought this summer and have slowly been renovating sits right in the midst of where it all went down. Watching the masses make their way toward the parade route was a sight in itself. An unofficial holiday, school districts closed and business shut down for the afternoon. Somewhat reminiscent of scenes from The Walking Dead, cars were eventually left on the shoulders of the highway, in green spaces, and perched on curbs.

It was crazy and wonderful and ridiculous. It was peaceful. It was family-friendly. It was community at its best. And I think if you ask anyone here, they’d tell you that was the real celebration….

Butternut Squash Cornbread with Brown Butter Sage (Gluten-Free)

October 29, 2015 17 Comments

Hearty and wholesome gluten-free Butternut Squash Cornbread with Brown Butter Sage is a savory take on a classic favorite.

Things around here in the last couple weeks have revolved much around baseball. Admittedly, a strange sentence for me to write, but truthful nonetheless. The Kansas City Royals are in the World Series, and the way my hometown has united around this team has been kind of amazing. There is an excitement you can feel, and it’s been pretty darn contagious, like an unspoken common bond among strangers—or spoken as it usually happens—as conversations pop up at the grocery store, gas station, or coffee shop. And so, schedules have been cleared and all games are being watched. …
