4 Squash Soup!

Happy almost end of October everyone! WOW! Where has this summer gone? I have kind of been a little MIA over here but don’t worry; I am not gone completely. This summer flew by, and even September has as well, last time I checked I thought it was July! This past summer, I spent a…

Cranberry, Coconut & Almond Chocolate Bark

It is almost the day to celebrate love. I mean every day we should be celebrating love, but Valentine’s day is the day. In a new relationship, or a long-term relationship, or single. You all deserve chocolate. In this household, we have not fallen off the new year’s resolutions wagon yet (a new record for…

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins

Hi friends, followers and family.  Happy Thanksgiving weekend, love you all! Some of you may know that I have gone back to school, and honestly it has been a lot more than I could have ever imagined, and it has only been one week! By saying that, I will be a little MIA (let’s be…

Pumpkin Spice Smoothie

Tis the season that I call “false fall”. It is the time of year where it’s fall in the morning, and by noon it is summer again with the weather being back up in the high teen’s low twenties, and you are deeply regretting whipping out your cosy sweaters, leggings and knee-high boots and are…

Besides making my usual suspects (keep…

Summer Pasta Salad

It feels like it is 1000 degrees out and I live near the water. The only way I have been able to cool down is Ice cold beverages and showers.  Sometimes thou, you do not want to drink, or shower! I made these tasty popsicles using Epicures Sencha and Jasmine Green Tea some local blueberries and simple…
