Let us know what you think!
Breakfast: Oatmeal? Pancakes? Waffles? What’s for breakfast? It depends on what’s available at home. We talked about making pancakes but settled on Garbanzo Bean Flour Waffles. Garbanzo bean flour is very easy to work with. The trick is to flavor it so that you don’t taste the bean flavor. We added almond extract and anise…
Lunch: With a morning doctor’s appointment, we skipped breakfast and Gary came along with me. I’ve lost some hearing since being treated with chemotherapy nine years ago and I wanted to have it checked out. I always go to doctors affiliated with Mt Sinai Hospital in Manhattan since this is the hospital where I had…
Breakfast: Soup can be quite satisfying for breakfast. With the seasons changing and a chill in the air both Gary and I were feeling a bit “under the weather” as the expression goes. Maybe the expression should be “between the seasons”. Anyway, this is the weather, or the season or the moment for soups with…
Breakfast: After a miss on the Corn Bread recipe yesterday, I had to try it again to make sure the recipe was all right. And, thank goodness, it was. I followed my time-tested instructions and the result was – Corn Bread, just the way we like it. We typically use a Corn Meal but I…
Breakfast: I sipped on Vanilla Black Tea while Gary was inspired to make Corn Bread. We’ve both made this no-fail recipe many times over the years, sometimes adding in something extra to spice it up a bit. We hadn’t made this recipe in a while. Somehow, something went awry. The batter took forever to cook,…
Monday, Monday. Gary headed out to his HB Studio class and I was meeting my parents and brother’s family for lunch. I took the train to Huntington on Long Island while I read Street Farm by Michael Ableman. I would be interviewing him on IT’S ALL ABOUT FOOD tomorrow. The family was meeting at the…
Breakfast: We had a date to meet cousin Lou who was in town with his wife Amy, visiting from California. I suggested Spring Natural in Soho, an old favorite that I had learned not too long ago had moved around the corner. In fact, Lou went to the old place first but fortunately Gary had…
Breakfast: Oatmeal is back. It’s been days since I had any and this one was exceptional with Coconut, Blueberries, Apples, Raisins, Cinnamon and Flax Seeds and Vanilla Black Tea. With the fall chill in the air this meal warmed by belly up and kept me going all day. Daily Green Juice: Kale, Collards, Celery,…
Breakfast: After consuming all those sweet treats the night before I wanted to clear everything out. I drank some Chamomile Mint tea that I had cold brewed the day before. I was so grateful for it. We didn’t eat until dinner! Dinner: Gary’s dear friend Stephanie was visiting from the Bay Area. She invited…
