Eating and living locally . . . mindfully . . . simply.
I love Charlie Brown movies. They bring back such memories. The other day I was watching The Great Pumpkin and was transported back several years to when I was a little girl, watching it at my Grandma’s house while eating popcorn. Halloween has many special memories for me.
Oh, Simply in Season, how I love you. I’m sorry I’ve been neglecting you lately. It’s just that the few recipes left aren’t at the top of my “can’t wait to make” pile, such as the one for Seasoned Breadcrumbs.

It’s time for another book review & giveaway! In the Kitchen: Real Food Basics by Kate Tietje. This one is a must-have for those of us who are taking steps towards eating healthfully. I love her down to earth writing style, and how she emphasizes that baby steps are OK!
