This past week, Mike and I took our first step towards our dream of farming (to be honest, I think Mike's dream just includes the chickens!) and joining the movement of sustainable agriculture by visiting Glasbern Country Inn in Fogelsville, PA.
We've certainly been supporting our local food ...

One evening, it must have been almost 30 years ago, we were sitting around the table lamenting the lack of dessert and praising the virtues of baklava when our older daughter, ...
Moussaka is something Hunter and I enjoy getting at Greek restaurants, so when I decided to try and make it at home I was certain I wouldn't be able to recreate what we have had when eating out. I think we were both surprised that this recipe made a moussaka that was as good if not better ...
I'm not a big pie eater but I do love a good strudel. This was always my lunch of choice when I was younger and would go skiing in Germany. The sweet creamy vanilla sauce mixed with the tangy apples and flaky crust are a sure winner for just about any occasion! I took this to an Olympics ...
I almost feel guilty posting this recipe, because these sandwiches are so tasty and addictive! They are fantastic in their simplicity, and I can't imagine anyone not liking them. I took these to a super bowl party a few weeks ago and they disappeared ridiculously fast, and I even got a few ...
**Yes, this was taken with an iPhone...I know, I know...but better not so great photo than no tropical fruit parfait post, right??
A few weeks ago, Mike and I took a trip down to Baltimore for the weekend. It was a great trip (we saw Owl City in concert, ya!) and surprisingly, we had two food ...
Risotto is, in my humble opinion, one of the easiest and highest impact dishes a person can master. For some odd reason people think its tough to make and quite honestly I have no problem with that. Sometimes you need a dish in your portfolio that is perceived as challenging but can be ...
Textured vegetable protein (aka textured soy protein) or TVP for short is our new friend. In case you're wondering, we didn't quite make it through our cleanse. The first 24 hours were pretty brutal with headaches, grumbly stomachs and incredibly low energy levels (duh, that's what happens when ...
It's been pretty cold in Denver for the last month or so, and when it's this cold I always think about roasting things. Chicken has been my food of choice recently, and this recipe makes a good roast chicken - flavorful and moist but not overly flavored, so you can either eat it as is, or use ...
Yep, we're going to need all the happy thoughts and support to get through the next four days. Mike and I are going to follow Whole Living's Whole Body Action Plan over the next month but, I figure once the four day detox is over, we're home free. No gloriously steaming cup of coffee to help ...
