We just got back from our annual camping trip at our favorite place in the world…   One of the things we do there?  Roast Starburst candies. I know it sounds super strange.  I first heard about it from my friend, Xazmin a few years ago.  She said they were wonderful and I didn’t believe […]

June 7, 2013 4 Comments

Quinoa.  Do you love it?  Ever had it? Can you pronounce it? (keen-wah) What is quinoa?  People usually think it’s a grain, but it’s actually a seed.  It is super high in protein (and it contains all 9 essential amino acids, so it is a complete protein, like meat) and is gluten free and cholesterol […]
