ROASTED WINTER VEG
WAIT!!! DON’T STOP READING JUST BECAUSE IT’S A PICTURE OF BRUSSEL SPROUTS!! I know you’re disappointed that this isn’t another post about pies or baked goods but seriously, a girl can only eat so many carbs before the neighbors start asking, ‘Who’s that woman with the Professor?’ And not in […]

It’s cold. It’s snowy. It’s blustery. I may look like Winnie-the-Pooh, but I certainly don’t have his temperament. I’m grumpy. We’ve had ONE day of sunshine so far the entire month of January. BLEH. But my mood changes on a dime when I make these luscious pancakes filled with tangy […]
