Lately I'm the bug.
I've been struggling with some health issues recently, and wow does it knock me off my routine! I'm working on getting back into the swing of things. While I set about drafting some amazing new posts/recipes/etc....I'll leave you with this visual of how I've been feeling lately.
No worries - she's actually fine in this picture. I have not beaten her (lately) and there were no punishments just before snapping this picture....she's just waking up from a nap.
....who let their precious child sleep with *gasp* the DOGS!

In a very short time. Homemade almond flour, from truly raw irradiated almonds sold by a small indie grower in CA. How do you know they're *really* raw, you ask? Well....they sprout! Happy happy.
After making up a batch of Ani's almond frangipane cream (from this book), I wondered what to put it on. I found these beautiful berries in the fridge, and a star was born. I love the simplicity of the recipe and the dish. It feels and tastes clean. Maddy liked it too....but preferred it sprinkled with cocoa powder. Such a chocolate lover, that girl! No idea where she gets *that* from......
