I’ve always prided myself in being able to throw together a meal with not much more than what was already in my kitchen. Some people consider “staples” to be nothing more than cans of beans, bottled water, and condiments, but I’m of a different school of thought. “Staples” will allow a good meal to be [...]

Day 1 Month 2.5 Month 3.5 He’s such a cute puppy… and he just keeps getting bigger! Anyway, after a [...]

Since the response was so HUGE for my perfect whole wheat pizza dough, I figured I’d go above and beyond my normal “couple of pictures and a recipe” post, and just for you, because I’m nice like that, I decided to do a photo tutorial. You’ll thank me in a little while! For those of [...]
