Treat Yourself to Healthier, Real Food Desserts (A Giveaway!)
Does eating healthy, real foods mean giving up all desserts and other sweet treats? I definitely don't think that the eating well and enjoying dessert have to be in opposition to one another. In fact, it's really about the ingredients that you use, far more than about the particular dish that you're creating. So in theory, we should be able to swap in some better, alternative ingredients and simply enjoy our goodies. One challenge, however, can be finding dessert recipes using those wholesome ingredients, that [...]

Desires of My Heart Devotional Book and Scripture Necklace Giveaway
One thing that really stands out to me about women (and maybe just people in general, but I notice it strongly in myself and my own gender) is that we crave control. We want things to go our way. In our time. According to our desires. "Delight yourself in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4 When I was younger, I used to naively think that this meant we could get the things that we wanted if we [...]

I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for Ice Cream (A Giveaway)
*Giveaway has now ended* Ever read a recipe book that had you drooling from practically the first page? Considering that summer is promising to stay hot for a while longer, when I first read Just Making Ice Cream, I could hardly resist jumping up from a cozy table in the coffee shop where I do some of my blogging so that I could stick my ice cream maker in the freezer. I love all manner of savory food. There probably isn't a style of food [...]

My Buttered Life Ebook: 5 Summer Skin Recipes and a Giveaway!
By reading the ingredient list on most skincare products, you would think that it's necessary to have a degree in chemistry and your own in-home lab if you ever wanted to create your own. Sunscreen in particular seems daunting to me and I wouldn't have the faintest idea where to begin if I wanted to make one of my own. That's why Renee Harris' (of MadeOn hard lotion bars) new ebook, My Buttered Life, somewhat flabbergasted but mostly just delighted me. I've already tried making [...]

Eating Seasonally This Spring: An Interview with Shannon of Nourishing Days
If you've ever thought about learning to eat more seasonally, now is the time. Farmer's markets all over the continent are beginning to open up, and overflowing with seasonal harvest like peas, lettuce, spinach and other green leafies, garlic, strawberries, rhubarb, green onions, fresh herbs and more. One of our contributing writers here at KOTH also happens to be a huge advocate of eating locally, seasonally and sustainably. So much so that this past winter she put out her first ebook, Simple Food {for Winter}, [...]

Sourdough A to Z eBook: Win a Copy!
Sourdough is a champion traditional food (don't miss Stacey's post on sourdough next Friday). By slowly fermenting the grain during the souring process, it becomes easily digestible (sometimes even for those with allergies or particular grain sensitivities), it reduces phytates (for better mineral availability and absorption), it even lower the insulin response to consuming the carbohydrates. Even better, sourdough baked goods are simpler than you might think to make and very frugal. There is no added yeast necessary (a beneficial thing, because store bought yeast contributes [...]
