Summer is almost here! Guess what time it is? Ice cream time! Honestly, who am I kidding? I don’t wait until summer to whip out the ice maker. I make ice cream all throughout the year.
Still, there is something special about eating a bowl of homemade ice cream on a

I had my first taste of a marinated portobello mushroom nearly 13 years ago at an Italian restaurant in Indianapolis. I was pleasantly surprised I enjoyed it as much as I did. I was equally surprised at the texture: it was like eating a tender, juicy steak… but not “chewy.” (If I recall

I’m starting to get back into meal planning again, after weeks of working from my freezer stash, along with some meals from friends after the birth of our new baby. A local friend blessed us with some fresh kale, Jerusalem artichokes, and carrots from the community garden this past week, so I’ve been incorporating those veggies

My dream is to become a farmer. Just a Bohemian guy pulling up his own sweet potatoes for dinner.

We’ve had crazy spring weather this past week, with snow, rain, and sun! We’ve started adding a few springtime favorites into our meals (such as asparagus), but we’ll still have more chilly days ahead, I think. We’re excited for my mom to come visit us this week, and the little ones are looking forward to some

I made sure to stock our fridge/pantry with grocery staples this week, in preparation for the coming days. I’ve put together a meal plan, but if our baby arrives soon, we’ll probably end up just pulling stuff from the freezer at various times. I made 1 1/2 gallons of yogurt last week, as well as a
