  • Hearty Oat + Flax Bread

    Good morning, folks! I am so excited about this yummy little loaf of bread I’m posting today. I promised I’d post it on Sunday and then had some technical difficulties and thought I lost all my beautiful bread pictures, but they magically reappeared! Good thing, because this is a really easy, healthy, and versatile homemade…

  • Maple & Cherry Granola

    Yaaay, granola!  This is more of a how-to post than a recipe.  Granola is surprisingly easy and totally customizable!
