Gluten Free Breakfast Sandwich

Posted in Family, Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #139 D loves to have his bigger breakfasts.  While he’ll eat cereal, he would much rather have eggs, pancakes, waffles, breakfast burritos… You get the idea.  He likes to start his day off with a hearty meal.  Before his surgery, he would make his own breakfast burritos or omelets or heat up something I had already made such as waffles or pancakes.  Now, he’s not able to do the cooking – at least not yet.  The good this is that he’s not getting up really early, so I can make breakfast at my own pace.  **grin** This…

Posted in Reviews

We are always listening to music around here, so it’s fun when a new (at least to me) Christian artist comes onto the scene.

Using up Leftovers

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #137 As you can see from some of my recent posts (Apple Cinnamon Muffins and Frozen Banana Treats), I love to be able to use up any leftover food that we have.  I hate to see food go to waste.  For me, throwing away food is basically throwing away money.  That’s not to say that it doesn’t happen, but I try my best to make sure that I either use the food up or toss it in the freezer before it goes bad.  It’s pretty cool how many foods can be tossed in the freezer to extend…

Review: Love Food & Live Well

Posted in Reviews

Did you know that you can lose and/or maintain weight while loving food?  It’s all about putting your love of food in the right perspective.  In Love Food and Live Well, Chantel Hobbs teaches readers that food is not evil.  She talks about how losing weight does not mean horrible, tasteless food.  It also does not mean depriving yourself of your favorite foods.  Instead, it’s about eating right 80 percent of the time and splurging 20 percent of the time. Chantel Hobbs knows what she is talking about when it comes to losing weight and eating great.  She lost 200…
