Since moving to the Omaha, NE area about two weeks ago, I have been excited to try out the abundance of restaurants that can be found when living in a bigger city.  After doing my research, this past Saturday night I ventured out into the cold to visit a local restaurant called Blue Planet Natural [...]

          I am not kidding you...this is the best homemade grilled cheese that I have ever made or eaten (and that's saying a lot because we used to make some pretty great grilled cheese sandwiches back in my college days ;)).  Trust me when I say that you are definitely going [...]

      Christmas is not over yet, folks! ;)  You may remember me hinting earlier this month about a future giveaway to happen here on the blog. Well…[insert drumroll] the time has come! One of my favorite cookbook authors, Lindsay Nixon, the author of The Happy Herbivore and Everyday Happy Herbivore  just recently released [...]
