Kids Korner
Cooking healthy nutritious meals is one of the biggest feats for busy moms and dads out there. With all that we do, it is hard to plan, shop, cook, and serve healthy delicious meals. It takes a lot of energy and an investment in time. Often, if you are diligent enough to get a healthy meal on the table, the picky little buggers don't even want to try it. This leaves us feeling deflated and under-appreciated. All of that time, energy, and MONEY has been wasted, and your kids end up asking if they can eat a bowl of cereal instead.

Flour Mites Are a Thing?!
Imagine a scenario in which you've woken up on a beautiful Sunday morning with a huge hankering for pancakes. Imagine also that you're the type of person who says, "I'm gonna make some amazing pancakes to combat said hankering," as opposed to the person who chooses to go to brunch at their nearest breakfast place. There's nothing wrong with the second person, of course, the two are simply different. Anyways, imagine that you are person #1. You type into Google, "best fluffy buttermilk pancakes" and you find the recipe that looks best. You get really excited because you think you're about to make the best pancakes of your life! You imagine all the ways in which they'll melt in your mouth. You think about the gooey, sugary syrup that you'll drown them in. You can taste the butter that you'll shmear over top. You're getting seriously stoked now!

Homemade Tomato Sauce
Today I am making homemade tomato sauce. This is one of the condiments I like to prepare and have on hand regularly. I have always loved ketchup and was used to slathering it with almost every meal. I knew I needed to cut back as manufactured ketchup is full of preservatives. My brother drew attention to this addiction and would joke “Your main meal today is ketchup with fries on the side!”

3 Ways to Spruce Up Pasta
Who doesn’t love pasta?! It is a great and versatile dish that can be made countless ways. It can be made for lunch or dinner and scales easily from a single portion to feeding a large crowd. The cook time is relatively fast and it doesn’t require a lot of fancy equipment (no, a pot and a strainer are not fancy. Plus, you don’t even need the strainer if you can use the pot lid to separate the pasta from the water). But as great as pasta is, after making it too many times, it can get a bit stale and boring. So here are some quick and easy ways to spruce up your pasta and impress your friends and family (as well as your stomach!)

A Dissection of Garlic
All too often, much emphasis in culinary science is given to finding and using the best possible ingredients. Yet this is but the beginning; cooking is process more than anything ~ and as I have found in my years in kitchens, most cooks, even chefs of excellence, have little idea what that process is.

Squash is a vegetable that hasn't gotten much love over the years, and that's a shame. This is one of the few plants in the world that is entirely edible — even the roots, shoots, and leaves.
