Way back in my salad days. . . . (Come on, now, who am I kidding? Okay, let’s start again): Way back in my cake-for-breakfast, Snickers-bar-for-breakfast, leftover-nachos-for-breakfast days, I was seemingly able to get it all done: work at a burger joint until 1:30 AM, sleep five hours, get up and make it to school for […]

Happy Trails
Snacks: should we or shouldn’t we? The jury seems to be out on that one. Just this morning, as I plodded along on my trusty treadmill, I happened upon a brief TV interview with ND Penny Kendall-Reed hawking discussing her new book, The No-Crave Diet. One of the supposed myths that she busted was the idea that we […]
Pear and Ginger Mini Loaves or Muffins

Frosted Banana-Oat Bars
Last evening I logged on to my blog and was gobsmacked to discover that my post had been listed on the Best of Holidailies! You cannot imagine how thrilled this neophyte blogger was at the news (made the H.H. read the whole thing–he liked the pic of Elsie’s paw especially) and also how surprised. So thank you, panel of Holidailies readers, and […]

It’s called Earth Bowl. I originally got this recipe from the cookbook […]
Baked Oats
[There’s nothing like a steaming bowl of oatmeal for breakfast! These baked oats are vegan, sugar-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, egg free, soy-free, nut-free and yeast-free. Suitable for Stage 3 and beyond on an anti-candida diet.] One of my all-time favorite breakfasts is baked oats. The recipe is adapted from the Moosewood Classics cookbook, but I’ve made […]
