Is it too early in the week for a salad? What if it has cashews in it? And the dressing has cashew butter in it? Still too early? I’d been on the phone with my sister the other day after a birthday lunch date she had with my mom. “What did you eat?” I demand. […]

I  was totally going to post a recipe today. I was. But then . . . spices separated, lentils turned to mush, there was a bitterness I just couldn’t place. Sooo, let me put my thing down, flip it and reverse it, and I’ll bring the recipe to you another day. In the meantime, I’ll […]

It’s spring! It’s not spring. I’ll tell you what, though. It’s felt like spring for about four straight days. How is it possible that KC has had 60-degree weather in the middle of January?
