Yogurt Update

In case you were wondering; no you can not freeze yogurt; it does not end well.

Food Connections

I have come to believe that having a connection to your food is the most incredible thing you can do for your family.  Breakfast this morning; nothing spectacular, but chock full of connections.  Eggs: from our chickens. Blueberries that we picked from a local farm less than 24 hours ago.  Toast with honey that we bought on our trip to Virginia.  Simple breakfast, chock full of memories.  A great way to start the day.

Budding Chef

Cooking with Little Man is so much fun.  It has been a great motivator to look for healthier substitutes for family favorites.  We have been substituting coconut oil and apple sauce for butter and shortening.  So far all the recipes have tasted OK (some have been amazing!), however, there are other times when that buttery goodness is missed.  All the more reason to keep cooking.
