Last week a SC public radio reporter interviewed me about how I’m coping with the pandemic (spoiler alert: it’s well!). The radio story along with a text article (they are different from each other, so view both of them!) came out today. I am really really happy with both […]
Yummmmmy! Today I made paleo apple pie bars with caramel sauce. It is my second time making the recipe—the first time I used peanut butter in place of almond butter and wasn’t sure if the recipe was a keeper or not. Today I used almond butter and boy is it […]
Another really good dish! I needed some tweaking of the recipe. Maybe my vegetables were really big, so there wasn’t enough of the sauce for me. I had to add more salt and maple syrup. Brad added more salt, pepper, and maple syrup. I also had to roast the veggies […]
I had a pretty difficult afternoon today, and needed something special to bring brightness to my day. So it was time for a banana milk smoothie! This is similar to a banana milkshake, only no ice cream and a little thinner. Here is a picture of the banana milk, which […]

Below are a couple of pictures of the bread, which is a smaller loaf, brown and very shiny. Below that is the recipe. […]
Today was our biweekly trip to the grocery store. Hestia is so good at the grocery stores now, even though we really only work her once every two weeks. I’m very happy that she hasn’t forgotten the basics, and in fact seems to be getting a bit more solid on […]
Hestia was having a problem of backing up when I was trying to get her to sit pretty, and also not being very stable in the position. So I tried something I haven’t seen in any of the youtube videos I’ve watched about it—having her sit back against a wall. […]
