This weekend we had a terrific rain storm which kept us huddled around the fire and craving soup. This soup is easy, delicious, comforting, and tastes even better the next day. Here’s how you do it: Cover the bottom of a big pot with olive oil and add 1 diced red onion. When onions start to become …
Five minute rounds…
When life gets tough, I often think about those few epic CrossFit WODS that have been permanently burned into my memory banks, and I think, “Well, if I can get through THAT, I can get through anything.” I also think about the resiliance of children and how they often tackle challenges with the bravery and optimism of warriors. For example, …
Brussel Sprouts for Breakfast and Red Curry for Dinner
I recently had someone ask a question about Brussel Sprouts and wanted recipe ideas. Brussel sprouts tend to be one of those veggies with a very bad reputation, and I admit, I used to loathe the thought of eating the miniature cabbages – but I have truly grown to love them and yes, my kids …

Don’t be afraid – it’s only a fish taco!

I made “fish tacos” out of the patties with romaine lettuce leaves, diced tomatoes, broccoli slaw, a little mayo, and some hot …
Our Food 11/04
Monday morning I made Karina’s sweet potato hash. I grated two sweet potatoes and cooked with crumbled pork sausage and butter until the sausage was brown and crisp and the potatoes were soft and starting to crisp up.
