Pear Five-Spice Coconut Oatmeal

October 25, 2012 by Melissa

I think there's a gas leak in my apartment.That's all I can come up with to explain this. I mean, seriously, both Steve and myself have been past the point of exhaustion for days...maybe weeks now.Ever since Sunday when we took the dog to the puppy emergency room for the evening, we haven't been able to stay awake! Seriously, he went to bed at 7:00 pm last night. Yup, 7:00 pm. And I've been up … [Read more...]

Pumpkin Spice Latte Oatmeal

October 24, 2012 by Melissa

Pumpkin Spice Lattes are super popular this time of year. It’s the first sign of Fall, right?Well, I love the taste, but I can’t just live in Starbucks, now can I? And the calories are a bit much. But! There are a bunch of coffee brands that make Pumpkin Spice coffee beans to brew at home! Brilliant, right? Yes, I believe so. Here’s a perfect way to incorporate your favorite seasonal drink into … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 5

October 19, 2012 by Melissa

Part of staying fit (or getting fit) is going to the doctor, right? Well…I don’t really do that. Yeah, I know, it’s bad. I go once a year. And every year, I tell myself I’m going to make a change and go 2-3 times a year instead…Still haven’t made that change yet. Maybe this year? By “this year” I’m referring to a year in the “doctor’s calendar” sense of the word…since I go every October. I’m going … [Read more...]

“Banana Bread” Brownies

October 18, 2012 by Melissa

Here’s another brownie recipe you’re going to love! If you absolutely have to use a brownie mix, and you’re strapped for time, you should at least put enough of a spin on it to feel proud and call it “homemade”. Right? Yup!These aren’t just any brownies though. Oh, no. These are rich, super fudgy brownies. Dare I say it? Yes…I have to…they’re moist! Gasp! I know you hate that word…so buy me a … [Read more...]

Pumpkin Cranberry Oat Cookies

October 16, 2012 by Melissa

Remember yesterday, when I told you about my new flour from King Arthur Flour? Well, here’s a recipe for some healthy, fall cookies, using more of my new favorite flour company’s goods! I used the white whole wheat flour for these cookies, giving them the heartiness of a whole wheat cookie but with the light mellow flavor of a white flour (but feel free to substitute all purpose gluten-free flour … [Read more...]

Caramel Apple Cake (Gluten-Free)

October 15, 2012 by Melissa

I’ve been staring at a caramel apple project that I have set aside (weird, right? And no, it's not real food...yet...so it isn't going bad). I just can’t seem to get around to getting those done. But I want them, trust me. So, when I was thinking of what to bake, it’s no wonder that the idea of a caramel apple cake, with warm cinnamon notes, just sounded perfect. I used King Arthur Flour’s … [Read more...]

Fabulously Fit Friday 4

October 12, 2012 by Melissa

Thank God it’s Friday. I’m seriously exhausted. For some reason, I haven’t been sleeping more than a few hours a night for the last three nights, so I’m SO ready for a good night’s sleep. I have big wedding plans this weekend which is really exciting! My fiancé and I have started taking walks together around the city which has been so nice. I love spending time together, getting some exercise in, … [Read more...]

Easy Coconut Caramel Brownies (Gluten-Free)

October 11, 2012 by Melissa

This is one of those recipes that everybody should have in their back pocket! It’s an easy way to spruce up either your favorite brownierecipe, or that store-bought box staple you’re always trying to pass as “homemade”. I love a good brownie, but I love brownies even more when they have a more dimensional flavor. I find them way more appealing with a swirl or a layer of contrasting flavor.Thus, … [Read more...]
