These gluten free pumpkin waffles are tender and full of spicy fall flavors! I know I said this in my last waffle post, but…life has been a bit…crazy? Is that the right word? Hectic? INSANE? Maybe that’s exaggerating just a hair. What with work, helping out my sisters after having their babies, battling an illness,…
Breakfast
Easier Spanish Omelette
This post is sponsored by Honest Cooking and Potatoes USA. All opinions are my own.We’re big potato fans in this house. In fact, Reuben is pretty disappointed if I serve a starch other than potatoes. Yeah, we’re Scandinavians. I think potatoes have gotten a bad rap in recent years. They ARE carb heavy, no doubt…
Grain Free Waffles + Life Lately
Whew! It has been a wonderful, busy month. I took an online course, wrote an e-book, attended my sister’s birth (it’s a girl!), and tried to keep up with household/mom stuff all at the same time (and almost went crazy in the process). ^^The adorable Reina!^^ It has been a stretching experience to say the…

Strawberry Protein Smoothie [VIDEO]
If there’s one thing I love for breakfast on hot summer days, it’s an icy cold, strawberry smoothie. I’ll often wake up with my throat feeling parched, and something liquid sounds just right for starting out my day. We’ll also drink smoothies for supper. Reuben works construction, so when he’s been out in the heat…
Sausage, Mushroom and Bell Pepper Breakfast Hash
Can I let you in on a little secret? I rarely eat this hash for breakfast (unless there happens to be leftovers). When I wake up from a night of nursing James, I’m STARVING. And I have about 5 spare minutes to make myself and Helen breakfast before the little man gets fussy. So I…
How to Make Perfect Soft Boiled Eggs
I first learned about soft boiled eggs from my grandma. She showed us her special egg cups. She talked about cooking the eggs for the perfect amount of time. Inspired, I decided to try my hand at making soft boiled eggs. To my dismay, it was impossible for me to get consistent results. I threw…
Lemon Crepes with Whipped Ricotta
For some reason I’ve come to associate lemons with the start of January. They’re tangy and fresh, kind of like the beginning of the year. You get a crisp, clean start. I haven’t made any huge goals for this year yet. I’ll be giving birth in February, so I kind of feel like that will…
Gingerbread Dutch Baby
NOTE: Some links are affiliate. All opinions are my own. It’s Christmas week! I can’t believe December has rushed along so quickly. I feel like I haven’t eaten nearly enough festive food or listened to enough Christmas carols. Also, I have some last-minute shopping to do. How about you? This Gingerbread Dutch Baby is absolutely…
Rømmegrøt (Milk and Flour Porridge) Recipe
This Rommegrot recipe (technically Floyelsgrot) is a delicious Scandinavian dish served around Christmastime. It’s so smooth and delicious! I remember the first time I ever heard of Rømmegrøt. We were eating lunch at my husband’s family’s house (this was long before we were married or even a couple). Reuben’s grandparents also came to lunch, and…
Transitional Whole Wheat French Bread
When my sisters and I took a girls’ trip to the cities, one of the best food experiences of the weekend was the fresh bread from the Italian restaurant we visited on Saturday night. There’s just something about bread warm from the oven. I kind of wish I could have made my meal off of…
