Something odd happened to me TWICE on Monday. I had to leave work early for an appointment, and afterwards I was running a few errands. I stopped in at a Starbucks close to the place where my appointment was, and the woman working said she didn’t need to see my ID for my unsigned credit [...]

Food allergies suck. Big time. Especially when you’re try to come up with good on the go food. Before I was aware that soy was the enemy, I used to eat granola bars like it was my job. They were easy, and as a grad student, and then a young professional, they were super easy [...]

My never ending quest to find a use for ripe bananas continues on…and I may have a new all time favorite! Last sunday I had ripe bananas and a hankering for brunch, so I went scouring some of my woefully underused but wonderful cookbooks looking for a recipe. I found one in the King Arthur [...]
