My son is obsessed with the Little Blue Truck book so I thought he'd love it if he had a Little Blue Truck birthday cake. Except for their 1st birthday cake, which I bake myself, I've had my friend Yvonne from Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen bake the kids' cakes. I am many things, but a baker, I am not. To me, baking is a science (which was never a strength of mine!) and cooking is more of an art. A little … [Read more...]

Dracula Bites
I've been obsessed with Dracula since I was a little girl (true story). I still have tons of Dracula books in the bedroom I had as a little girl and I've seen every Dracula movie you can think of from a kid on... yes, even Nosferatu, the original! It's a mystery why incorporating Dracula/vampires into my cooking took so long! :)= I had no plan for dinner. We had just gotten home from a … [Read more...]
Naturally Sweetened Caramel Apples
We like to make these tasty treats every fall before Halloween. It's such a fun interactive activity for ALL of my kids. From going to an orchard/grocery store to pick the apples, to stick/twig hunting in our backyard or local park, to helping make the 'caramel' sauce, to dipping it in the toppings of their choice, there are so many ways for them to get involved. And to quote my 5 year old: 'the … [Read more...]
Easy Blackberry Galette (Vegan)
Every Friday is special. It's special because it's the start of our Sabbath. A beautiful crisp, clean white tablecloth floats on the table, we take out our wine glasses and fill them with "wine juice" (a.k.a. grape juice) and you can smell the fresh challah baking in the oven. My family has a few traditions for this weekly holiday. Besides lighting the Shabbat candles, saying the prayers … [Read more...]
Red, White & Blue Rice Crispy Treats (Vegan & Gluten Free)
We had just gotten home from a trip cross country (during a pandemic!) and with my 3 little ones, all I had energy left for was my fun fruit flag and that's what I was planning. Fast forward to the 4th of July. The girls were disappointed they didn't get cotton candy at the parade (my daughter saw it but we couldn't find where they were selling it). So I looked around my kitchen … [Read more...]
Heart Cookies (Vegan & Gluten Free)
Nothing says Valentine's Day like a heart shaped cookie! :) This recipe is gluten free, vegan, has good protein and fiber from almonds, fats from coconut oil and is naturally sweetened! The ingredients are all ones I feel good about enjoying with my children! This is a fun one to do with the kiddos too, since they can help do it all… measure, stir, roll, cut out the heart shapes, frost … [Read more...]
Apple Cinnamon Crêpes (Vegan & Gluten Free)
My hubby LOVES crêpes but we haven't had them in ages. (It's not so easy to find vegan ones.) I never made them before, but it was his birthday and I wanted to surprise him. (Hard to do that lately, being together 24/7 with 3 small kids!)! It was my first time making crêpes, both because I was intimidated by attempting a vegan version of these delicate pancakes, and because I am not the … [Read more...]
