Food, Family, and Lifestyle
I was reading another Rhode Island bloggers post about making her health a priority and she linked to a breakfast quinoa recipe. I thought, breakfast quinoa is a brilliant idea so I set off to make my own. I just finished consuming a stupid amount of it. What the hell, I have a complete day’s…
I made these pancakes this weekend but forgot to add the food coloring to make them green so while the kids are at school today, I whipped up a batch. I am going to freeze them and surprise them St. Patrick’s morning. Those lucky Leprechaun’s!
