Magazine Mondays! I found this idea on Ivonne’s blog Cream Puffs in Vencie and I immediately took to the idea. I too have lots of magazines, with recipes patiently waiting to be made… See if I can make this a habit? For my first Magazine Monday recipe I chose a quick and easy one from [...]

Here I am concocting something new again. I love the result, but it got thumbs down form my two little taste testers (if you haven’t met them yet, let me introduce Kristof and Bence, my little chef helpers), and even my husband, who by now is used to getting served [...]

One of the challenges of going vegan, even if only for ten days, can be your family. Green smoothies were part of my vegan experiment. The first one I tried to make really tasty and fruity, so that the boys would drink it. Bence said it was yummy, but Kristof was turned off by the [...]
