This past month, Kim and I chose Asparagus as our SOS Kitchen Challenge key ingredient, and set out a true “kitchen challenge”: could anyone actually come up with a (tasty) sweet asparagus-based recipe? Well, I’m thrilled to report that several of you rose to the challenge quite admirably! The asparagus recipes flowed in all month, […]

Shaved Asparagus Salad and Lemon Poppyseed Bars
[Raw Frosted Lemon-Poppyseed Bars–heavenly!] Whew–where has the last week gone? Between end-of-term marking and a long holiday weekend, it’s been pretty busy here in the DDD household.

[Whole Grain Waffles from Good Morning!: Breakfasts without Gluten, Sugar, Eggs or Dairy] With all the chaos over my dad’s heart attack earlier this month, I’ve been a little distracted and just yesterday, I realized that I’d forgotten to mention a few things I wanted to tell you all about! So today’s post is dedicated […]
Unplanned Blog Break
[Mum, it can be hard waiting when you don’t know what’s going to happen. . .trust me, I know.] I wanted to let you all know that I’ll be away from the blog for a while. My dad (who is almost 90) had a heart attack and is going to need some help getting from […]
March SOS Kitchen Challenge: Ingredient Reveal!
Merry March to you! A new month brings a new SOS Kitchen Challenge, the monthly recipe event hosted by Kim and me celebrating vegan, sugar-free, natural recipes using a featured ingredient. Rather than focus on something obvious like oats, cabbage, or potatoes this month (the blogosphere loves St. Patrick’s Day!), we’ve gone in a different direction entirely. This […]
