By Diana, Contributing Writer Christmas is my favorite day the year. I'm a stickler for tradition on Christmas Day. Each year, my boys and I wake up in the darkness of the early morning. I put on a pot of coffee while the boys take turns jumping on dad, screaming that it's time to wake up. As a family we sit in a circle, hand-in-hand, in the living room while Dad leads us in prayer. We thank God for the gift of his Son and [...]
By Stephanie, Creator and Editor and Erin, Contributing Writer Homemade Salted Caramel Mocha I have long been a self-proclaimed coffee snob, and while I can easily walk away from candy, sodas, and most assorted desserts or sweets, fancy coffees just might be my downfall. I'm pretty sure that Starbucks created their Salted Caramel Mocha for the sheer purpose of tempting me beyond what I can handle. Since I try to keep my sugar intake low, and avoid refined sugar in particular, I had to figure [...]
By Rachel, Contributing Writer There is something about this time of the year that makes us love having a hot beverage treat to warm our hands and indulge our taste buds.

By Diana, Contributing Writer I can't believe it's been a week since Thanksgiving. I had a wonderful time planning and preparing a real food feast for my family and friends. I spent two days in preparation that included a slow roasted pastured turkey; sourdough crackers and rolls; labneh (yogurt) cheese; roasted brussels sprouts with onions and bacon; sweet potatoes with fresh cranberries in a real maple syrup; mashed potatoes drenched in butter; and for dessert, pie – oh sweet pie. As much as I love the holiday [...]
By Brandy, Contributing Writer I needed to come up with a new granola bar recipe that was both wheat-free AND rice free since my son is allergic to both. And since I usually make my favorite granola bars with crispy brown rice cereal, I wondered what I could use that would be remotely close. On the cereal aisle, I explored my options. The choices were slim, but one bag of cereal that I'd never tried before caught my eye. Puffed millet. I decided to give [...]
