Found a wonderful new recipe for using up that leftover turkey, from Clean Eating magazine, with a few adaptations. I used frozen mixed vegetable, a combination of shelled edamame, carrots, peas, beans, and corn, along with the onion and...
I have hosted our west coast family Thanksgiving gathering since we finished building the house here at Skyote Mountain. We met before that at the Sacramento home of my first cousin once-removed, but with the loss of a few family members,...
I've been baking this one a lot lately - you can see it on 11.10 (plain) and 11.11 (with blue cheese and black sesame spread). Rene' is a bread eater, so I bake healthy breads to make sure he is not eating empty calories. Apple Pecan Rye...

I made a batch of Goji Squares last night, an adaptation of a friend of a friend's recipe. A combination of goji berries, cacao nibs, coconut, hemp seeds, cocoa powder, coconut oil, honey, and salt. I don't have permission to post that...
