It's nearly 70º as I write this, which seems like a silly time to be talking about hot chocolate. But if you're my children, there is no silly time to talk about hot chocolate. It's just always an option for a yummy treat. I can't say that I disagree... And while we do buy our fair share of kids' hot chocolate from Starbucks, sometimes it's nice (and much cheaper!) to make it ourselves at home. Since I'm not a fan of all of the extra ingredients in standard hot chocolate packets, I like … [Read more...]

My Current Food Philosophy
I've mentioned several times that we eat mostly gluten free due to gluten intolerances. But I don't know that I've laid out exactly what we eat, and why we choose to eat the way that we do.
