Of Food And Memory [Recipe: Honey-Soy Grilled Chicken] 17 May 2013 | 08:28 am

My mention, and therafter photo, of a jar of homemade honey almond butter on my instagram account yesterday had sparked quite a bit of interest. In fact, enough for (at least) one reader / viewer (?) ...
Starting the Day Right [Recipe: Apple-Banana Oat Smoothie] 13 Jan 2013 | 04:09 pm
These days I find myself reaching out for a smoothie almost every other day, albeit not consciously for health reasons as it is for the sheer convenience of it all. My mornings are usually rushed, so ...
