FTSF – It’s Not Easy Eating Green

When it comes to St. Patrick’s Day, I don’t have much to say on the topic. My Daughter, however, has a bit of an opinion – YUCK! It’s not the holiday she has a problem with. It’s the green. When it comes to St. Patrick’s Day, all the food is green. Green milkshakes. Green candy. Green…

TToT – The Non-Routine Routine

My disappearance this week was not intentional. In fact, I had all sorts of great ideas planned for this space – and most were actually in a semi-written state. But somehow the first week back on routine went a little awry and I ended up with a cold to boot. Two of the five school…

Smoothie Week – What’s Your Weirdest?

I’ve been drinking smoothies daily for about a year and a half. I can’t remember exactly why I started but I’m pretty sure it had something to do with an abundance of CSA vegetables and Pinterest.

TToT – Dashing Off Again

I would much rather be in bed falling asleep right now than writing my TToT list. Can’t blame a girl for being honest. But the truth is that if I don’t do this now – quickly – I won’t do it at all because there won’t be a moment to do so. We’ve been busy…

Supermarket Goodies

As promised, today I bring you tales from the supermarket. Grocery shopping is not really all that entertaining, I suppose, but it’s something we all have to do eventually. I try to make it as bearable as possible.  And while I suspect that nobody really wants to know about our grocery shopping efforts or product…

Kale Chips, Anyone?

So, I decided to try kale chips today. I’m not sure the ones I picked up were the best choice ever. I hear people rave about kale chips. I am not raving. I am confused. Can anyone recommend a brand to try that is good???  Put it in the comments, please!

Chocolate, Anyone?

At the market yesterday, Kidzilla picked out a whole bunch of great things.  Among other standards, she selected a golden plumcot and a mango nectarine.  Can’t wait to try these.  She also picked out some amazing chocolate. My kid loves dark chocolate – really dark chocolate.  This Little Foodie has remarkably mature taste for a…
