So how come I want to start off pretty much every recipe with “Yaaaaaaay!” Guess that’s a good sign. This is so flavorful, one’a those “I don’t feel deprived!” foods.

Either way they should be raisin-sized, so if your …

Remember those cukes from the #notmygarden ? Turns out the “best pickles I’ve ever had in my whole life” (direct quote from boyfriend #notbragging) are *ridiculously* easy to make! Purdy too! (No filter. They be vibrant green, bay-bee!) Being that I’ve never in my life made pickles before, plus the fact that googling “make your …

This one was inspired by Mandy, who sent me a pic of her friend’s pre-packaged protein bar mix. (Who knew they even made such a thing! I had no idea!) Not bad but methinks we can do better! 😉 It’s so awesome to make things yourself, so you get to choose what goes in there …
