Naturally Sweetened Coffee Creamer
My husband is one of those “I’ll have a little coffee with my creamer” kind of guys. In fact, I’m pretty sure he would never drink coffee if it wasn’t loaded with sweetened creamer.

Beef or Lamb Bone Broth

Savory Cauliflower Waffles
I have a new BFF in the morning, and a large portion of my diet has been altered. What has prompted this transformation? Cauliflower waffles, of course!

Let’s talk about apples. Autumn brings fresh, crisp air, fewer hours of daylight, bountiful harvests, and SCHOOL LUNCHES.

Kahlua Fudge Sauce
I seem to be caught in an ice cream state of mind. There may be all sorts of reasons, such as summer time heat and sunshine, but mostly it’s because I love ice cream.
Stovetop Roasted Garlic and Infused Oil
Summer is hot. And humid. And I don’t like heat. Or humidity. But I still like to cook! And eat! Summer is the perfect time to create dishes that don’t crank up the heat in the house, making the air/con work even harder, and making this girl even crankier.
