Pumpkin Chai Snickerdoodle Cookies
I <3 homemade cookies. And I wish I made them more. I really wish I made these more...all my favorite flavors of fall...in cookie form.

Veggie “Fried Quinoa”
Stovetop Confession. The other night I was making chicken and potatoes in the Dutch oven. (Similar to this.) I got it all started, set the lid on top and walked away to help Ryan finish up his math homework. But before I walked away, I forgot to turn the dial down to medium-low. And won't ya know....10 minutes later my nose caught wind of a smell that should never come from … [Read more...]
