The eye doctor. Some love it, some hate it, others don’t mind going. I mean hey, it’s not like the dentist, or the gynecologist… or the butt doctor scheduling you for a dreaded exam, or even worse…. a colonoscopy check up. *shivers* No, just the eye doctor. Unless you have a weird complex about eye stuff, it’s no big deal. Recently, I had a visit
Simple Organic Grilled Fennel
Fennel seeds have a very distinct licorice flavor, while the fennel bulb has a delicate sweet flavor. When it’s grilled it becomes a tender, melt-in-your-mouth experience you don’t want to miss. It’s very easy to make, with minimal ingredients and low maintenance prep time. Bulb fennel has generous amounts of fiber, zero fat, and no cholesterol. It’s a vegetable that has potassium, vitamin C, folic
Quick and Easy Organic Baba Ganouj
Baba Ganouj is one of nature’s miracle dips. It is so creamy, yet it contains no dairy or dairy substitutes whatsoever. It’s great with pita bread, crackers, corn chips, veggies and more. It’s just good wholesome ingredients. Creating the dip usually takes longer and involves roasting a whole eggplant, but we’ve sped up the process here. Of course a shot of all the ingredients in
Homemade Caramel Sauce
Homemade from scratch caramel sauce is one of those items where I can really tell a difference if it is homemade, or comes from a jar. Don’t get me wrong, I like both versions, but I much prefer this one to any other. It just tastes fresher and more “home grown” than the processed stuff that comes in a jar. Making scratch caramel sauce can
Organic Asparagus Spears With Pine Nuts
Tender, but not overcooked asparagus is often a fine art. In this recipe, we steam the asparagus lightly before sautéing it with red wine vinegar. The final touch is chopped pine nuts sprinkled on top. Just a little goes a long way. Asparagus goes great with many dishes, from main courses of meat (if you’re a meat eater), to being it’s own main course in
Choosing A Gas Or Electric Oven
Love to Bake? Gas or Electric Oven, Which is Better? If you love to bake, then you probably use your oven at least a few times a week, and maybe even more often than that. But what happens when your oven breaks down? You’ll have to take a break from baking, of course, but you’ll also need to start shopping for a new oven. And
Organic Fresh Herb Grilled Eggplant
Fresh herbs are best with this recipe, but if you don’t have any on hand, you can certainly use their dried counterparts. Just use a pinch of each herb if you’re using dried. This dish is so delish and refreshing.. loaded with flavor, filling, but not stuffing. Light on the tummy, easy to digest, and very satisfying with the grilled flavor. Great year round, but
Burt’s Bees Review: Sexy Shine With A Pop Of Color!
Hoooooolllyyy lip gloss drawer! When I take a moment to go through all my makeup and nail polishes and girly products, I see that I have accumulated a massive pile of lip sticks, balms, stains, and .. glosses! I will admit I wear more gloss than any other lip “stick” because I tend to go for a more dramatic eye with a lighter lip in
Organic Sweet Maple Green Beans
If you’re being good and eating your green beans, you may as well make a treat of them, right?! While we want to minimize sugar intake and fatty butter, once in a while it’s nice to have a treat like this! It’s not thaaaaaatt bad! And I always say, if a recipe calls for butter, always use REAL butter! It’s always going to be better
Caramel Apple Tart
These caramel apple tarts remind me of mini apple pies. They are perfect for parties, bbqs, or holiday treats. Make it all from scratch, or simplify it by using frozen puff pastry dough, jarred caramel sauce, and ready-whip cream.Now of course, you can go all out and make everything from scratch with whole organic ingredients, but this time we are doing the quick easy time
