Monarch Butterflies, Heirloom Navel Oranges and gourds, also in the love category. Somewhere near the very top of this list are carrots. I love them in the car, juiced […]

When we were in Florida, Sandy’s mom made a soup for all of us. It was a surprise and she brought all the ingredients from Atlanta. She made her super secret vegan soup on the evening of the race as we rested, swam and basked in our exhuberance. It was exactly what we needed to […]

The watermelon chip experience was so amazing that I went right back to the store and purchased another seedless melon to make more. Because I began stock piling melon, I also decided to create a Watermelon Gazpacho. I have a borderline addiction to watermelon and I crave chilled soups. This Gazpacho is so flavorful and […]

This weekend we had the most wonderful time at a huge outdoor market. We found gorgeous produce, local foods and a new-to-us treasure, yellow-eyed peas.

The other day we tried a recipe that I found in the Sept issue of Family Circle magazine. The recipe was meaty and full of dairy products, but that didn’t stop us. Sandy said, “Anything you can do, I can do better with soy.” The finished soup tasted so undeniably like a baked potato that […]
