A couple of months ago, I gave up my french vanilla coffee creamer habit. It wasn’t quite as bad as my diet cola habit, but bad enough. I’ve missed it, but I just couldn’t justify drinking it and knowing what was in it. I decided to make my own (inspired Read more…

My gosh this is good. It’s been a while since I’ve made it, but I have quite a bit of zucchini in the garden and I am determined not to waste it.
By the time I had a chance to photograph this, the loaf had been destroyed by the kids. They LOVE this recipe.
Preheat oven to 350 f. Spray a 9x5x3 loaf pan with nonstick spray.
My grandmother made the best blueberry cobbler on the planet. I am happy to tell you, it’s in the genes. Grandma made this recipe entirely on the stove-top in a cast-iron pot with a lid. I don’t have a similar pot, so I use the microwave (because I don’t have to watch and stir) and then the oven. Try it … you’ll love it!
I picked these cherries from my parents farm last weekend. They are a wee bit tart, so I knew they’d make great cobbler.

Truthfully, we’ve always been a Heinz Ketchup family. On the other hand I’ve been trying very hard to keep our family eating ‘real food’. I’m trying to cook with simple ingredients and avoid a lot of processed foods. All that said, we like ketchup and we like healthy, so I Read more…
I made this recipe up to use the fresh and locally grown spinach and mushrooms in my Organic Box delivery. Damn it’s good! It shouldn’t take much more than 12-15 minutes to make (depends on how long it takes the water to boil). Ingredients: 1-2 chicken breasts (chopped into 1/2 Read more…
Georgia: Daddy I am going to go sun tanning. Mr. MK: Umm OK, but do you know what sun tanning is? Georgia: Yes, it’s when you lay very still on a towel with your bathing suit in the sun and go to sleep. And that is just … exactly what Read more…
Our first The Organic Box delivery arrived this afternoon. I’m very impressed. This box was left at the front door, filled with tons of fruit and vegetable goodness. All of it organic and much of it locally grown. Total cost $50. There is no way, I could buy all of Read more…
This recipe is so EASY and YUMMY! However, I can’t take any of the credit. I found this fabulous recipe courtesy of Alina @ Russian Season (one of my favourite blogs) and she found it @ the Stone Soup. My children thank-you both, as do I. ‘Mommy knows’ a good Read more…
This recipe is super easy and a hit with the whole family. I rarely follow a recipe exactly, this is actually a twist on a recipe I originally found on the Kraft Foods website. I was looking for something easy, but I didn’t have salsa and I LOVE my Patak’s Read more…
