Here comes 2024!
This blog and site have seen quite a few transformations since 2008 when I started here and there is more coming. I have not fully fleshed it out; the goal is to create a cohesive flow of the NOURISHED ventures. So stay tuned! Meanwhile, in 2023 I birthed NOURISHED Gardens + GreenSpaces, an ode to the land and beauty thereof, and a journey to bring wonder and joy to as many as I can - an endeavor to give to others and to myself.
All in all, people, can you see I am growing up and becoming an adult? :)
And while I have been ruminating, I picked back up on baking. And the sharing of recipes! :)
Let's Break Bread
Ah in that is the bread’s secret, it embodies the warmth and strength of the feminine in every curve and every slice. And, just as the energy, it flows with dish you fancy, from a simple toast, to a buttered side to an indulgent bread pudding. Ooh La La!
Mind Bending Zebra Bread
TF and baked this bread together, every step! it was a delightful novelty for her, and, as she stacked them into the pan, she was fascinated by the similarity with the stripes on her favorite animal - the zebra. That was the shift. To me, it was simply a reformatted pull apart bread. For her, it was so much more animated and wondrous! Thus the name “Zebra Bread”, for its reminder that looking through a child’s eyes can definitely be a mind bend, often for the positive! And, a note to self to do it more often!
A Democratic Burger...
You may have seen these before. Around on Pinterest, maybe even on this blog, hopefully where it was originally published.. in the inaugural issue of my magazine, NOURISHED - REBIRTH. These burgers are my Phoenix story!
The Three Ingredient Magic....!
Voila! Here you have it! Three ingredient bread for souls like me who can't eat gluten, and, for everyone else who can because it is bloody awesome. Sweet potato, almond flour, egg. That's it. Simple. Clean. Delicious. I was vindicated. I showed the world. I came out on top again. Bah to all the bread. I got my own sandwich now bey****!
