I have these big beautiful Red Russian Kale plants growing in my vegetable garden. This is my first time growing it- my previous attempts at growing kale was Dinosaur (or Lacinato) Kale. This year, the rabbits ate my Dinosaur Kale, and while I’m waiting for the replanted kale to grow, […]

Meal Kits For Camping
It feels like 104ºF outside right now. It’s been hot all week, and as you can imagine, there isn’t much cooking going on. We’ve been existing on salad and melon all week. Fortunately, one of the local grocery stores is having a huge sale on melons, so Sunday I went […]

These muffins just naturally go with the Coconut Almond Muffins I shared the other day! These also rank right up there with some of The Best muffins I’ve ever made. I don’t even have to go on and on about how delicious they are- they are packed with pineapple flavor […]
