Do visit Celestial Seasonings if you are in Boulder. I take so many out of town guests there no matter what age or interest. Who doesn't loves the mint room on the tour?

No! Not canning lids too (potentially)! We have pretty much phased out canned goods at our home. We would occasionally get tomatoes but I stopped that late last year with the idea of tomatoes be...

I brew my own and am allergic to cane sugar so use agave nectar or crystalline fructose (whatever is in my kitchen).

That veggie burger recipe is totally on my to-do list! However not this weekend. I'll be doing some light backpacking so soyrizo, legumes, eggs, tortillas and veggies are on the menu for dinners ...

The potato one cracks me up because it isn't necessarily contamination from the potatoes because of cross contamination with other foods put into potato salads or cross contamination from surfaces ...

I totally use Kemp's Black Beans recipe. It is always so easy to pull up off of Epicurious! My modifications are that I use a local sweet wine instead of sherry (Bookcliff Vineyards Adagio), I us...

Yes! This looks like fun with the recipe and all the comments in this thread. I will get on making some veggie burgers!!

We are getting our first snow of the season last night and today. It definitely is kitchen time. Preserving apples, pole beans, and basil. Making kombucha and some sort of legume dish. And bigg...

So pretty! I agree about finding an excuse to prep and serve these for others.

I was given two huge bunches of kale last weekend and have been eating it all week. Sauteed with shallots and a splash of sesame oil, in a coconut curry with pumpkin, with coconut ahi, tossed with...

Right on Warren Taylor! I love when our food producers are passionate about the integrity of their products like this. The people who purchase from this dairy are lucky folks. I bet you can tast...

Thanks for the reminder! I really need to hit my sewing machine tonight to work on this kind of stuff. We are forecasted for snow today and I already started to close off some of the rooms in the...

I wouldn't do it over again, I loved how we did it. We did a destination wedding so were not expecting gifts. Our big ticket items were new arcteryx backpacks and besides those we had a total of ...

Yeah, I went to school at Humboldt where CCAT regularly had menstrual pad making workshops. I am fine with those every so often but use green tampons when working out. I tried the natural sea spon...

I am having a picnic dinner in my yard tonight and have no idea what I am cooking. I think I am most excited to decorate the yard. Am leaning toward pesto pizzas with nuts, grilled veggies, and s...

We had a random chilly Saturday in the 40s so I busted out my dutch oven and packed it with fresh corn, mushrooms, peppers, onion, potatoes, and herbs for a stew. Sunday weather was ...

I could with living in the Front Range of Colorado. As it is I have a cow share for raw milk and that dairy supplies a lot more than just milk. I get wheat nearby from a guy that grinds the stuff...

Yes!! I don't live anywhere near a Trader Joe's and this is one of the staples I buy when I have a trip and can stock up. These go great with artisan breads, cheese, and good mustard when laying ...

I am going to keep drinking from my 2 y/o SIGG. Like the treehugger.com article suggested, the issue is with the company's transparency issues, not the product. There has not been any BPA leakage...
