Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
Hey there! I haven’t been able to post food photos much because of this awesome group of kids. They are performing in “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”. I have been running the light board and cannot blog at the same time. They are doing such an AWESOME job and I am so glad to …
Book Review: Seldom would I shout from the rooftops and recommend a non-fiction book to people. But Rachel Swaby writes an excellent piece that every boy, girl, man and woman should read. The book is divided into 52 biographies of women who had a strong influence on science. The influence was so strong …
Books: So with a lot of time on my hands this weekend, here are the books I read! The Crossover by Kwame Alexander – Ok, I am forgetting the other books for book club next month and using this one instead! Poetry, motion, deeply felt characters, fast moving plot, themes and solid ending. …

I have included the PowerPoint Presentation as well …

Books: I am doing another presentation on “Making Your Favorite Foods Healthy” at the library. I’m very excited about sharing all the wonderful recipes and techniques I have accumulated in making foods healthier. The idea all started when I made brownies from black beans and no flour and no butter. The first section of the …
Recipe: So this is like my favorite dessert ever. I’m not sure why it took 4 years to post it. There are other versions like the one my mom makes for my birthday. (Yes, I get a strawberry pie instead of a cake.) Most have lots of Jello brand strawberry gelatin and some cut up …
Here are some great Easter tips and recipes if you are still searching for something to bring on Sunday. Or, if you just want something “spring”y to take to work – these cookies would work perfectly! Royal Icing Sugar Cookies (I did not use baking powder) I used an egg shaped cookie cutter from my …
I saw these “holy heck brownies” on Pinterest and then used the King Arthur Flour recipe to make the brownie because it had more chocolate in it. Everyone loved these brownies! Dark, fudgy, chewy, just the perfect bar to take anywhere. This version makes a 9×13 pan and snickers inside. Use up the rest …
