Foodie Friday: Rustic Roasted Tomato Pizza
Our tomato plants have gone crazy. Remember when they looked like this? Well, now they look like this: I think our yellow plum tomato plant is something like five feet tall by eight feet wide.…
Foodie Friday: Creme Fraiche Pizza
I am in love with this pizza. We are talking make-two-times-in-one-week kind of love. I think it is the creme fraiche. Perhaps it is it that I am currently into cream based flavors with lime,…
Challenge: Pregnancy Food Craving
Happy Mother’s Day! While I’m not technically a mother yet, it seems fitting that Jess recently challenged me to make a dish of a food I’ve been craving while pregnant. Plus, I’m getting really close…
Foodie Friday: Mini Taco Salads
When life gets busy, it can be incredibly tempting to grab a bowl of cereal instead of taking the time to make a real meal. While a non-meal is okay here and there, I find…
Foodie Friday: Roast Chicken
Roasting a chicken in the oven is something I always thought of as an Classy Adult thing. For example, in the 5th grade, my friends and I made a video for class, dressed up in…

Foodie Friday: Blueberry & Strawberry Salad
All winter long I have fallen head over heels with a Blood Orange & Kale Salad from Spoon Fork Bacon. With Summer in full swing I was wanting a version of this salad, but one…
Foodie Friday: Chilled Cucumber and Apple Soup
Linz and I LOVE soup. That is made pretty clear around these parts when leaves start to change color, and a warm bowl hits the spot on cold days. But what about on these hot…
Foodie Friday: Food Lover’s Cleanse
One of the fun things about doing this blog with Linz is that we do not often coordinate our individual posts and they are a surprise even to each other. I am just as excited…
Foodie Friday: Jessica’s Blueberry Chicken
Rounding out our week of guest bloggers, we are delighted to have one of our favorite Oregon country girls, Jessica Stokke, share with us one of her best recipes for Foodie Friday. ~Jess & Linz…
Foodie Friday: Lentil Loaf
I do not talk often about the fact that I am a vegetarian here on the blog, but it is an important part of my life. I hope the food posts around here feel like…
