1 cup plain flour
1 tsp caster sugar
240 ml milk
1/2 a lemon
(Makes about 12 crepes)
- Whisk all ingredients in a mixing bowl till smooth.
- Strain, cover and set aside for 30 minutes at room temperature
- Dip paper towel in melted butter. Grease base of non-stick pan.
- Over small to medium heat, using a small ladle, ladle about 3 tbs worth of batter onto pan.
- Using base of ladle, spread batter out in a circular motion
- Cook for about a minute, or until base of crepe turns golden brown
- Remove crepe from pan, squeeze lemon juice and sprinkle sugar
note: Crepes are meant to be thin, so make sure you don't scoop too much batter onto the pan.
Also, you need to be quick when it comes to spreading the batter out in circular motions.
Oh and I sometimes don't bother setting aside my batter for 30 minutes. It still works fine.
So, I've been cooking and testing bits of recipes here and there, for a food publication I'm making. I've gathered 16 talented creative types and together, we're making a yummy cookbook, filled with homemade recipes and my food illustrations. I'll show you more as I go along!


This past week, Soupergirl introduced the Soupergirl Non-Cleanse Soup “Cleanse” — a healthy way to lose weight and guide your body into healthy eating habits. There’s a million different diets and weight loss strategies out there — what separates our “cleanse” from the pack? A few things:
- Say goodbye to hunger pangs and bad cravings. The goal of the Soupergirl Non-Cleanse Soup “Cleanse” is not to starve the weight away — that only leads to the weight coming back after the diet is over. The goal is to nourish your body with fresh vegetables, legumes, and wholesome grains. Watch as the weight falls away, you feel fuller and more energized, and your skin gives off that healthy glow!
- Make lasting changes to your diet and health. The Soupergirl Non-Cleanse Soup “Cleanse” trains your palate to be accustomed to healthy, real food; processed foods will begin to taste unnatural and will be the last thing you crave!
- We take the pyramid approach to calories. Our “cleanse” team has developed a special menu for your 4-day program. The model is “eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper.” We start your days with hearty, energizing soups then gradually progress to the lighter soups, so your body is burning maximum calories!
- You’ll still love what you’re eating. Your “cleanse” package includes a diverse, flavorful array of soups — with recipes like Barley Sweet Potato & Greens, Triple Ginger Butternut Squash, Split Pea Rosemary, and Winter Root Vegetable Chili (these are just examples — the menu changes every week so you can keep “cleansing!”), you’re sure to discover something new and enjoy every spoonful!
- It’s easy! The soups come in 16-oz, ready-made containers — all cooked locally at our kitchen in Takoma. All you do is throw it on the stove or zap it in the microwave. Healthy has never been easier.
- Stay warm! It’s cold out there. What is more comforting and warming than a bowl of soup?? Soup is like a hug from your mom. Or Soupermom.
So what are you waiting for? Click here to get started and get results today!
Too much salt is bad, mm’kay? “Yes, Soupergirl, I know,” you say, reverently. But we are eating in the time of an interesting paradox — the more we learn about proper nutrition, the more we ignore! While our knowledge about food is expanding every day, so are our waistlines. This point is illustrated perfectly in Jane Brody’s article in The New York Times. Despite greater access to healthcare and information, we are experiencing a nutritional crisis, from supersized (not to be mistaken for soupersized) portions to the greater affordability of fast food to our affinity for sugar. It seems we are retreating in the face of information overload and mercurial evidence that has all the consistency of DC’s climate (bread is good! Actually, bread is very very bad! Never mind, it’s good again! But too much is REALLY bad!)
In times like these, it’s helpful to keep a shortlist of rock-solid principles to help guide you towards the right choices. Ask yourself, “Is it fresh? Is it made locally? Would Soupermom (or your grandmother) recognize the ingredients? Does it contain high levels of sodium and fat or preservatives?” Actively incorporating these questions into your shopping routine, and sticking to them, will help you lead the life you’ve learned!
Locavores of DC, unite! By now, we all know local food is better for the environment, but here are 3 reasons why buying local food benefits YOU personally:
- Lower taxes! According to the American Farmland Trust, “farms contribute more in taxes than they require in services, whereas most development contributes less in taxes than the cost of required services.” Last time we checked, carrots don’t pay tolls and butternut squash doesn’t dial 911.
- It tastes better. The crops are picked when they’re at their peak of flavor and come fleshed out with genetic diversity — producing an engaging variety in shape, color, and overall taste.
- It’s better for you. You may have heard that the average food travels 1,500 miles before it gets to your plate. This is true. And disturbing. The shorter the time between the farm and your table (or spoon), the more nutrients and enzymes are retained!
It may be September, but here in DC it’s still hot as ever. How do you cool down in this swampy heat? Let’s see… There’s sugary lemonade and snowcones… Soda is out… What if there was a healthier summer beverage that still tastes delicious??
Enjoy our Beet Gazpacho before it goes out of season!! Splashed with beet and a touch of jalapeno, this one-of-a-kind summer treat won’t be on the shelves for much longer! And there’s more than just the amazing taste — this gazpacho is ridiculously healthy!! Check it out:
- Beets! The nitric oxide boosts blood flow and provides a great source of natural energy.
- Tomatoes! Also pronounced tomahtoes. A fantastic way to load up on antioxidants.
- Olive oil and lemon juice: the “nutritional synergy” (fancy, huh?) that occurs when you combine these ingredients makes gazpacho one of the most popular foods for those trying to lose weight.
So what are you waiting for? Run, cycle, scooter, cannonball over to the nearest store that sells Soupergirl and claim yours today!!!
Spoiler alert: Summer is going to be over soon. I know, I know. We’re not happy about it either. Mostly because it means time is running out to enjoy all of our seasonal gazpachos — Tomato, Cucumber, Beet, Peach, and Watermelon to be specific! Bright, refreshing, and healthy, our gazpachos are the perfect summer treat. Hurry in to a Soupergirl store near you, or any Whole Foods Market in the area, and hoard your gazpacho while it lasts!!! This is a season finale you don’t want to miss out on.
The Culture Trip has published an article featuring Soupergirl as one of the top 4 vegan eats in DC! Along with our good friends Sticky Fingers, Evolve Vegan Restaurant, and Native Foods Cafe of course! We’re in good company.
Whether you’re traveling through DC in need of delicious, plant-based food, or you live in the area and are preparing a dinner party that will satisfy all eating needs, or you need an emergency soup delivery to the office — Soupergirl to the rescue!
Loyal soup fans! Happy hour just got even happier: This Thursday and Friday (August 27th and 28th), from 4 – 7pm, Soupergirl will be dishing out FREE SAMPLES of our Boozy Gazpacho at Penn Social!!! This awesome DC bar & restaurant is located at 801 E St. NW.

Every day, science is drawing more and more connections between the foods we eat and the effects they have on our brains. Here’s a list of some foods that are really, really good for the brain — and which Soupergirl soups you can find them in!
- Bring on the beans. All beans are magic beans. They stabilize blood glucose levels and provide a steady stream of energy to the brain.
Found in these Soupergirl soups: Zucchini Red Lentil, Tuscan White Bean, Brazilian Black Bean, White Bean Mushroom Kale, Roasted Corn & Bean, Creole Rice & Bean.
- Sprinkle that sage. Sage — even its name is full of wisdom! Since 1597, sage has been thought to have beneficial effects on memory, and the research confirms it today.
Found in these Soupergirl soups: Zucchini Red Lentil, Summer Minestrone, Corn Chowder.
- Tack on tomatoes. Tomatoes contain lycopene, a souper antioxidant that protects against damage from free radicals caused during dementia.
Found in these Soupergirl soups: Tomato Gazpacho, Tomato Basil, Creamy Tomato, Roasted Tomato, Old Fashioned Tomato & Rice, Summer Vegetable.
- Bet on beets. The nitric oxides in beets boost blood flow to the brain. Brilliant!
Found in these Soupergirl soups: Beet Gazpacho, Creamy Beet.
- Whole lot of whole grains. Whole grains promote good cardiovascular health, which in turn benefits the brain. And many contain Vitamin E and Omega-3’s. Let’s break bread!
Found in these Soupergirl soups: Italian Barley & Greens, Moroccan Style Harira, Asian Soba Noodle, Mushroom Barley, Quinoa Vegetable Basil, Old Fashioned Tomato & Rice.


Acadian Bakery was established in 1980 and is family owned and operated. The Cajun pie recipe is about 200 years old. When the pie is served warm, it will fill the air with a tasteful aroma – a taste that will make you reminisce about grandmother’s old time pies.
Thank you for visiting!
Acadian Bakery, Inc. was established October 13, 1980 by William "Bill" Anderson and his wife, Margaret Prejean Anderson of Lafayette, Louisiana. This spectacular bakery was handed down in January, 2005 to Anderson's grandson, Anthony Broussard, making it family owned and operated since opening. We began baking our french and garlic bread, our cajun sweetdough tarts and our cajun gingercakes to sell in small local grocery stores. The business has expanded to cover the majority of Louisiana and even into southeastern Texas. We are now selling to large and small restaurants, grocery stores, convenience stores, truck stops and supermarkets.
Our number one selling product is the Cajun Sweetdough Tart, also known as our Cajun Pie. This pie is a sweetdough tart filled with one of eight different fruit fillings. (Coconut, Pineapple, Apple, Lemon, Blackberry, Sweet Potato, Fig and Blueberry). The sweetdough tart recipe is about 200 years old. The owner's great-grandmother baked these tarts back in the old days which were served by the Cajuns on a regular basis filled with the fruit of the season. The dough was also baked without a fruit filling, being known as "teacakes".
Our best selling sweetdough tart is the Sweet Potato Pie. We make this sweet potato filling using yams from BRUCE FOODS, a Louisiana Company. All flavors of the Cajun Sweetdough Tart can be served with a warm custard sauce or ice cream. This is a Certified product of Cajun Louisiana.
The Cajun gingercake has the flavor of the old-fashioned Rock-n-Roll plank that was sold in the 1950's. The gingercake is made with a sweet vanilla icing or if you prefer, we also make them without icing, a plain gingercake. Let us know how you would like yours!!


Healthy Eating Habits in Ramadan
While the holy month of Ramadan is around the corner, Doctors at TreatMeInIndia curated some real healthy food stuff that can help decrease the chances of one falling sick while fasting for the holy month.
TreatMeInIndia recommends a special 30-day Ramadan meal and fitness plan.
What to eat
Diet during Ramadan / fasting should be well balanced, consisting of all the food groups before dawn (sehri or suhur). This will help in avoiding, fatigue, restlessness, and vomiting sensations due to hunger at bay.
To avoid feeling hungry during the long hours of fast, one must include a lot of complex carbohydrates along with good fibre. These nutrients digest slowly and hence will lead to slower release of sugar in the blood stream throughout the day, making you feel less hungry. The health benefits fibre and complex carbs have on health add on to the reasons of consuming them.
(Food Rich In Fibre; Pic Courtesy: weightlossresources.co.uk)
Diet during Ramadan fasting should consist of Food items that provide complex carbohydrates. Brown rice, oats, whole wheat flour, Barley, millet, semolina, beans, unpolished rice, and lentils provide plenty of complex carbohydrates.
Diet during Ramadan fasting should consist of good quality protein. It is observed that during long fasting, if protein is overlooked, one may face problems like dry and rough skin and hair, hair fall. Eating Eggs, chicken, lamb, chicken, sea food, lentils and dairy will do the trick.
(Food high In Complex Carbohydrates; Pic Courtesy: global-cdn.skinnyms.com)
Eat a lot of green salads, vegetables and fruits. This will help you get all the needed fibre and vitamins.
(food Rich In Protein; Pic Courtesy: cdn2.coachmag.co.uk)
Keeping the body hydrate is another big challenge during this fast. Fruit juices, buttermilk and water should be consumed, do not have plenty of Water empty stomach, Make sure to have sip of water . Later during the night One can have glass of water at regular Interval; this will help the body to maintain its fluid balance.
What to Avoid-
Avoid excess intake of simple sugars. Sugars lead to immediate hike in the blood sugar level and a steep drop after a while, which may lead to intolerable hunger pangs.
(Pic Courtesy: jaquo.com)
Avoiding excess Masala and spices are indeed helpful. These spices increase the acid production in the stomach and may lead to acidity and burning sensation during the fasting period.
(Food Rich In Simple Sugar; Pic Courtesy: glenisk.com)
Avoid too much Caffeine. If you are addicted to your cup of tea / coffee / or any other caffeinated drinks, you must start your effort of getting off the addiction a few days prior to Ramadan. Sudden aversion to caffeine due to the fast may lead to severe headaches, irritability and mood swings.
(Pic Courtesy: holachospital.com)
Avoid strenuous exercises during the fasting hours, it may lead to dehydration and black outs owing to no food and water intake.

Reduced physical activity leads to the fact that the energy that enters the body with food has nowhere to go. As a result, the animal begins to recover. For this reason, the diet of domestic cats should differ significantly from the diet of active, freedom-loving relatives.
The diet of domestic cats should be varied, balanced in the content of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and nutritious. The diet should contain essential acids, vitamins, macro- and microelements necessary for normal growth, development, and physiological state in the required concentration. An imbalance in the diet, feeding pets with low-quality ready-made feed and food leads to disruption of metabolic processes, hormonal changes, obesity, and malfunctioning of organs and body systems.
To prevent possible health problems, it is necessary to use a quality, varied feed.
- body condition, body weight, condition;
- health status, presence/absence of chronic diseases;
- age, breed characteristics;
- conditions of detention;
- season, ambient air temperature;
- activity level.
Morphophysiological features of the digestive system of cats
In the process of eating, cats are unhurried and moody. The taste and smell of food are of great importance. The attractiveness of cat food is influenced by its consistency, moisture content, particle size, and hardness. Cats do not like cold food; they will not eat spoiled food. Even with uniform consistency, animals will pick out the smallest particles that they don’t like. Therefore, each owner must choose the optimal diet for his pet.
Since the domestic cat spends a lot of time licking its fur, hair clumps can get into the digestive tract, some of which come out naturally, and some of the animals cough up. This problem is especially true for fluffy, long-haired breeds. When mixed with food, dead hairs form large clumps that can lead to blockages in the digestive tract. Therefore, the feed should contain probiotics, prebiotics, fiber, ingredients that accelerate the process of removing wool lumps.
The easiest way to give your cat a nutritious diet is through a subscription service with pet food delivery options. You can get regular deliveries of the most nutritious food that is best for your cat.


Eat This… Wild Salmon
Omega 3 fatty acids and protein are wonderful for creating and maintaining healthy skin.
Hair, skin and nails are mostly made up of protein. Protein is needed to repair cells, it is important for energy levels, balancing blood sugar levels, and is involved with glutathione production. Glutathione is an important antioxidant, and antioxidants are essential components of eating your way to beautiful skin.
Fish is an excellent addition to your diet as it supplies both protein and omega 3 fatty acids, which contributes to good skin health. Oily fish like salmon, tuna, cod and mackerel are good natural sources of omega 3. Being a whole food, these fish also have DMAE, which is excellent for protecting cellular membranes and improving skin tone. Recommended sources of DMAE from fish are anchovies, sardines, and wild salmon.
Canned salmon also tends to be a very good option. This is because, according to Erica Angyal the author of Gorgeous Skin In 30 Days, canned salmon is typically wild salmon. Wild salmon and farmed salmon have some important nutritional differences.
Wild salmon eat natural choices which live in the sea, like shrimp and krill. And it is this diet that gives them the lovely pink color we associate with salmon. Farmed salmon are fed soybean pellets and other cereal based food, which is unnatural and changes their ratio of essential fatty acids. They become characterized by higher levels of saturated fats and omega 6 fatty acids (linoleic acid), which tend to be excessive in our modern diets already, and their levels of the beneficial omega 3 fatty acids become lower.
Farmed salmon is of course still better than nothing, but choosing organic, wild fish or tinned wild salmon is a better option, nutritionally speaking.


According to the American Diabetes Association, not only medication can help you control this dangerous condition that is diabetes, but your diet matters as well. A well-balanced diet plan helps to keep blood glucose, blood pressure, cholesterol, and weight on the healthy levels.
Eating habits are especially important when it comes to your blood glucose levels. Not only the type of products you consume matters but also how consistent you are with your meals. In other words, how much you eat and when.
Some people think that such diets only involve quitting eating sugar, but there are many more products to avoid, and you’ll see the most important of them listed below.
Red meat contains lots of saturated fats; that’s why its consumption can result in cardiovascular disease and diabetes. So, for those already with diabetes, red meat is particularly hazardous. The reason for that is that the nitrites in it reduce the effectiveness of the pancreas’ work. Also, the iron in this product can raise insulin resistance.
Pretzels are sometimes considered to be pretty healthy, for some reason, but in reality, they’re hardly good for you. Just have a look at the ingredients; there’s white flour, fats, and salt – junk food apotheosis. As a result, pretzels don’t do much in terms of nutrition. What’s more, the refined carbs in them lead to blood sugar spikes.
Coffee with Cream and Sugar
Coffee shops have deserved their bad reputation because they add lots of sugar to their drinks. People who have diabetes are better off making coffee at home. It’s not that difficult, and hey, so many financial experts claim drinking coffee you made yourself will solve all your money problems! Time to check if that’s true. If your drink contains a lot of fat and sugar often, it might cause insulin resistance development.
But smoothies are just some fruits blended together, right? In theory, yes, but unfortunately, if you weren’t the one who made it, you can’t be sure that your “healthy” drink doesn’t contain tons of sugar—especially those huge delicious (and instagrammable) ones, with fruit syrups and yogurts. The same goes for juices – always look at what they contain. Or just opt for fruit instead – it’s much healthier.
Ok, smoothies, juices, but water?… It must be ok even with a little flavoring, it’s still just water! That’s the idea which marketing strategies try to sell you all the time. This is the case with VitaminWater, for example. It contains 32 grams of sugar in just one bottle. Just drink some water, and add a slice of lemon or lime in it, if you want that extra flavor.
Mayo is not great for you; that’s a pretty much known fact by now. First of all, it is typically produced with dangerous fats, even though it could have been easily avoided by using some less harmful alternatives, such as olive oil. The condiment also has tons of carbs and sodium, which is especially dangerous for diabetes patients. If you aren’t ready to replace mayo with something healthier, stick to the kinds with olive oil and more or less healthy ingredients.
White bread has loads of starches as well as refined grains. The latter is well-known for being digested very fast and processed in a similar manner to sugar. Even though there’s no actual sugar in white bread, its consumption still leads to blood glucose spikes, which are risky for people with diabetes. Besides, this type of food doesn’t have many nutrients, especially fiber, which affects blood glucose in the way that it leads to its digestion in a more measured manner, more consistently. Thus, fiber is essential for avoiding blood glucose spikes; that’s why it’s so important to consume enough fiber if you have diabetes.
It is impossible not to love nachos, but this dish, despite being very yummy, can be dangerous for people with diabetes. A plate of nachos typically contains red meat, lots of cheese, refried beans, and loads of other unhealthy ingredients. In addition, all chips are not great for people with diabetes, except when they are baked in an oven, and that’s why they aren’t high in carbs. Anyway, this whole plate of fats isn’t good for anyone.
Yet another type of food that is usually portrayed as a healthier option. While the fruits are turning into the dried version of themselves, the sugar which they contain becomes concentrated. And from that moment on, it’s not good for you because and can easily cause spikes in blood sugar. Also, sometimes actual sugar is added to make them tastier. Throughout the article, that’s a common trend – choose the most natural versions of things, in this case, fruits.


So, Noah turned one on Thursday (seriously, how did that happen?!) and, to celebrate, Henry and I made THE BEST chocolate cake. We used coconut oil to keep it dairy free, sweetened it with coconut sugar and local honey and made the base from ground almonds. Practically a health food, right?
We made two of these beauties (because #birthday), stacked them together and smothered them in melted chocolate, mixed with a little more coconut oil, and topped with coconut flakes and fresh berries. And it was so good. See?!
Noah’s First Birthday Cake
Serves 8 – 10
2 tbsp honey (maple syrup will also work)
100g coconut sugar
300g ground almonds
2 tbsp raw cacao powder
2 tsp baking powder
100ml coconut oil, melted
120g dairy free, refined sugar free dark chocolate
2 tbsp coconut oil
2 tbsp unsweetened, dried coconut flakes and fresh berries, for topping
You’ll also need two 20cm springform tins, brushed lightly with oil and the bottoms lined with baking parchment.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
Beat together the eggs, honey and coconut sugar until frothy, pale and doubled in volume. I use the whisk attachment on my KitchenAid for this, expect it to take around five minutes. Meanwhile, mix together the ground almonds, baking powder and cacao powder. Add this to the egg mixture, and beat briefly. Add the oil and beat again, until just combined.
Divide the cake batter between the two tins and bake for around 20 minutes until spongy and no longer wobbly in the centre (technical baking terms).
Leave to cool in the tins; while you prepare the topping: melt the chocolate and coconut oil together in a bain marie. Leave to cool a little (it will firm up) and use to sandwich the two cakes together, remembering to remove the parchment before you do so. Spread the remaining icing over the top and sides of the cake and sprinkle with coconut flakes (fun but messy, especially if you enlist the help of a small child). Add the fresh berries just before serving.
I’d love to hear your thoughts if you try this, and feel free to share photos on Instagram (tagged #afterhenry) so I can take a look. Now, I’m off to find a dairy-free carrot cake recipe before my birthday next month…
PS Holland & Barrett stock coconut sugar and oil, and raw cacao. Shipment to France is only £6.99 and they often have sales, so I tend to place a big order for grains, seeds and nut butters etc. every month or so.

this is low fat, low carb and high in protein.
And it tastes DIVINE!!!!
I think it tastes like cheesecake.
I love that it doesn't wreck my weight loss efforts.
It's simple to make too.
Just put some tinned (or fresh) peach slices in a bowl.
Dollop on some low fat ricotta.
Drizzle over a little honey (just a tiny amount, or skip it)
Dust with a touch of cinnamon.
Sprinkle on some chopped walnuts.
More healthy, yummy recipes coming soon.


Woo, well I think I just had a triumph with these – they’re amazing! My faither usually whaps out the cheese for his, and although the Pure vegan range also do a really good cheesy style spread, I thought hummus and cranberries would be a nice alternative. I got the recipe from http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/520634/scottish-oat-cakes and once I tasted them I realised how much better oatcakes are when they’re homemade Ohmigawd.
- 225g oats
- 60g plain flour
- 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 60g Pure vegan butter
- 1tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp sugar
- 60-80ml hot water
Pretty easy – I just mixed all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl until it looked like a big bowl of breadcrumbs, then gradually added the water to soften the oats and help everything stick together.
Theeeeen…I got myself a large oven tray and greased it with some more butter. I then dusted it with a fair bit of flour and plopped the whole bowl out onto it. It’s professionalism and care all round as this attractive arrangement demonstrates:
Priviledged individuals will most likely have a rolling pin of sorts in their possession, but if like myself you find yourself lacking in pinnage, rolling a tall cup across the mixture will do as well. I rolled this braw lump until it was about 1/2cm thick, then used the edge of the cup to cut out circle-shaped oatcakes like the epitome of resourcefulness I have been forced to become.
I kept on cutting and reusing the excess dough until I had two large oven trays’ worth of oaty goodjins ready for the sun! The recipe I found said to pop them in for 25-30 minutes at 190 degrees C, but after the slight cremation of my intended flapjacks the other day I thought I’d check on them a lot earlier. Turned out they were deliciously crunchy after just 15. Turned out I was right to check. Yeah.
…And that’s all it took to make these! They are amazingly crunchy and filling, but the best thing about oatcakes is all the different toppings you can try on them. Here’s my hummus and cranberry idea (doit,doit,doit,doit,domyidea).
However, today was also the day I discovered quite possibly the best thing I’ve ever seen in Aldi: Machries Tomato and Chilli Relish Praise for Machries, jeezo. Some of this spread on the crunchy oatcakes was really tangy and spicy, and it reminded me of eating Doritos dunked in hot salsa. I’m thinking of buying the vegan cheesy spread stuff again and having some of it plus a plop of Machries’ finest on top of the next batch of oatcakes I make Oafft, the possibilities!
Yaaay! Oatcake-y success Also can’t quite believe the number of photos I’ve taken for an oatcake recipe :S
…Ach nae danger.

Billionaire Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg
splashed out €32 on a romantic meal with his new bride during their Italian honeymoon.
Zuckerberg (28) and Priscilla Chan (27) had lunch at a Kosher restaurant called Nonna Betta in Rome’s Jewish Ghetto. They tucked into a bargain meal of artichokes, ravioli and fried pumpkin flowers. They had no alcohol — just water and tea.
Owner Umberto Pavoncello said: “They seemed like two lovebirds... It was a very romantic scene.” The couple’s €32 bill was later posted online by Italian news websites.

Chicken breasts are the classic lean muscle-building protein.

Jack finished his year worth of math today. It was supposed to take 6 weeks and was a compressed course, but we’ve been working on it since the end of October a little bit at a time. He was very proud.
I let him pick dinner tonight and he picked waffles. I felt like I couldn’t just let waffles be dinner so I decided today was the day I learned how to fry chicken. God Bless the internet. The first couple of pieces I fried were a little well-done on the outside but I got the hang of it by the end. I also made King Cake for the first time because I’d honestly rather be in the kitchen cooking and baking than doing anything else.
I thought the King Cake would be much harder to make than it was. Perhaps my newfound love of bread baking and the several recipes I’ve tried made the yeast portion of today’s activities less intimidating. The cake part was spot on, if I do say so myself. And I do. The glaze was meh at best. I will make Royal icing next time to really elevate that ish.
I felt much better today and less inexplicably blue.

‘Q: Some people blame economics for the bad eating habits a lot of Americans practice. Is it true that healthy eating costs more than unhealthy eating?
Technically, no. It’s possible to go to the market, buy good ingredients, and make yourself a healthy meal for less than it costs to buy a value meal at McDonald’s. But most people don’t have the time or the skills to do that. It’s a hell of a lot easier to buy your meal at the drive-through. I can understand why a single parent, working two jobs, would find it easier to stop at McDonald’s with the kids rather than cook something from scratch at home.
But we’re looking at the whole economic issue the wrong way. Instead of asking, “What does it cost to eat healthy food?” we should be asking, “What’s the real cost of this fast, cheap food?” When you look at the long list of harms, this fast, cheap food is much too expensive.’

When it comes to healthy food consumption, it’s better to invest in a refrigerator that has all the storage space and features for preserving all your fresh foods. We take a look at the new Hisense 749 Liters French Door Refrigerator (RQ749N4ASU) and here are our impressions about it.
Design and Features
With the popularity and demand for big-sized refrigerators increasing over the years, many manufacturers have released several new models with premium features. Hisense has introduced several premium-looking refrigerators and one such is the RQ749N4ASU, which features a durable stainless-steel finish that goes well with modern kitchens. The refrigerator features a water dispenser on the outer portion that is located on the top left door. This comes in handy as users will not have to open the doors to have cold water.
The water dispenser allows users to collect water by simply pushing the handle with their glass or cup. Speaking of doors, this refrigerator is based on the french door design that is ideal for large apartments and families. The doors are designed to be easily opened from the edges in the middle of the fridge.
Upon opening the 4-door system, you will find three major sections on the refrigerator. The top-middle portion is the main fridge compartment with a temperature between 2-6 degrees cold. The bottom portion is divided into two separate compartments. The left side is reserved as the freezer compartment that operates between -4 and -24 degrees. The right side is called the My Fresh Choice that operates between -18 to -5 degrees cold.
The fridge also comes with a Computer temperature control LED system mounted on the top portion. You will be able to program the temperature needed for the three major zones. Hisense calls it the Triple Choice. There is even a mode that you can set called Holiday if you plan to go away from home for a trip and ensure that your food stays intact. The other two modes are called Super Cool and Super Freeze. The Total No Frost option ensures that ice build-ups will be prevented from forming on the refrigerator, thanks to the even distribution of cold air throughout the fridge. You can also turn off the refrigerator directly from the control system.
The main compartment on the upper-middle portion consists of two glass shelves that can be removed and adjusted according to the user’s preference. Families usually keep cooked food with stainless steel utensils on fridges and this compartment suits that role.
Then comes along a long and narrow shelf that can easily slide out. Users will be able to keep products such as pizza boxes or several vegetables as a quick access drawer.
Underneath the drawer are several other easy-glide drawers that can be used to store fresh vegetables. There are a total of three drawers with two of them meant for fruits and vegetables and the middle drawer for storing snacks. The Fruit and Vegetable compartments are comparatively larger than the above slider. However, the Snacks drawer is quite small and could fit the role of storing products such as chocolates.
The drawers on the bottom of the refrigerator consist of two portions. The left compartment is reserved for freezing operations and the right side for normal cold temperatures that are meant to store fresh foods. There are two easy-glide compartments, followed up by two large-sized drawers.
The drawers are quite large in size and can accommodate a large number of fresh food storage, ensuring that there are enough for reserve and the freshness stays intact. Hisense also mentions that you can convert the My Fresh Food compartments to a freezer by adjusting the temperature, should you require more space for frozen products.
You will also be able to store a lot of small and packaged food products on the side doors as there are a lot of mini compartments. The bottom part of the side doors has a total of three mini compartments.
The upper portion of the side doors has larger storage space. The left-sided door has the water compartment for the water dispenser and the temperature is the same as the top main compartment.
Filling up the water compartment is an easy and straightforward process. The refiller cap is mounted on the top of the water compartment.
There is also a tray to store the eggs on the right-side door. It would have been better if one of the small compartments on the sides were dedicated to egg storage so we could store in larger numbers.
The total dimensions of the fridge are 912×725×1785mm. The total capillary capacity is 749L and the net capacity is 583L. All the drawers and the doors feature metal handles to easily open them.
The Hisense 749 liters french door refrigerator RQ749N4ASU is a good choice for those looking for a premium-looking refrigerator with useful features that helps to store various kinds of food products and keep them preserved for longer durations. The water dispenser is handy for every member of the family who wants to drink cool water. With a large selection of food compartments, users will be able to properly manage the food storage.
The electronic computer control system on the top is easy to manage and control the temperatures with different modes to choose from. The Total No Frost feature stops the icing from forming in the refrigerator. You can also convert some of the compartments into a freezer for more frozen food storage. Hisense also provides a one-year brand warranty and 10 years compressor warranty for the RQ749N4ASU french door refrigerator.


For many, the start of a new year is a chance to put your health first and take better care of yourself. Whether your resolution is to start and exercise routine or being more mindful of what you eat, being aware of how food affects and benefits your vision is a great start.
Research shows that certain nutrients and vitamins can help prevent eye-related diseases. Here’s some foods you should incorporate into your diet and start working towards improving your vision as well as your overall health:
Seafood is packed with health benefits. With high levels of omega-3 fatty acids, cold-water fish help reduce inflammation and help prevent dry eyes, cataracts and macular degeneration. You can source omega-3s in fish such as salmon, mackerel and herring, or freshly ground flaxseeds and walnuts if you aren’t a fan of seafood.
Although it may seem hard to believe that fats are essential for our health, our bodies can’t properly function without it. Fatty acids are the critical in the normal production and functioning of our cells, muscles, nerves and major organs.
Leafy green vegetables are known for being a superfood because they contain two antioxidants, Zeaxanthin and Lutein. Both nutrients are stored in the macula, which is part of your retina that naturally acts as sunblock and protects your eyes from harsh and damaging lights. They can help prevent cataracts and macular degeneration and can be found in foods like spinach, kale, collard greens and swiss chard. Cookinglight suggests that you should try eating your greens with a bit of olive oil to ensure you absorb more nutrients as they are fat soluble.
Orange Fruits and Vegetables
Carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, cantaloupe and butternut squash are all full of Beta-carotene and Vitamin A, which are crucial in helping reduce the progression of macular degeneration. Registered dieticians note that Beta-carotene help the eyes adjust to low levels at night time. Vitamin A helps the surface of our eyes and mucous membranes and reduce the risk of eye infections, but one of the first signs of a deficiency is vision problems at night!
Whole grains contain Vitamin E, and zinc, which all help reduce your risk of developing cataracts or another age-related degenerating condition. They also reduce the likelihood of your blood sugar levels rising which can damage your retina. Vitamin E is found in food such as almonds, sunflower seeds and hazelnuts, while foods like oysters, beef, crab and turkey contain high levels of Zinc.
All About Vision states eating whole grains that have a very low glycemic index may reduce the risk for macular degeneration. You can easily start incorporating whole grains into your diet by swapping out pasta for quinoa or white rice for brown rice.
Beyond eating healthy, discussing any vision problems or concerns with your optometrist or our vision care team can be the start of a life without boundaries. Book a complimentary assessment with and find out whether laser eye surgery is right for you.
Even with eating right, annual or semi-annual visits to your optometrist should be part of your regular health routine. They are often covered by extended health benefits plans – even if you don’t have coverage for glasses or other vision correction.
If you’ve had laser vision correction, it’s still important to visit your optometrist regularly as they test and check for many different eye health issues.


RECIPE: Homemade All-Purpose Biscuit Mix
Submitted by Rick Beach. Homemade All-Purpose Biscuit Mix. Make your own Bisquick or All-purpose mix. For use in any Dutch Oven Recipe calling for Bisquick or other similar commercially available product. Better because you make it homemade. You know what ingredients are in the mix. You can alter the Shortening to use Crisco or Butter, or a combination of the two based on your preference. Mix up a dry batch at home. Store for several days in zip lock bags. Great to prepare at home for camping trips. Just add cold water, or cold milk for richer biscuits. To prepare to bake. Add small amounts of liquid until you reach your desired consistency. Never over mix any type of biscuit dough. All-Purpose Biscuit Mix (Better than Store bought)
Servings 8 Biscuits
- 4 1/2 Cups Cup Sifted flour
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbls + 1 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 Cup Shortening
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 3 Tbls Powdered Buttermilk
- 2/3 Cup powdered milk
- Stir together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Sift together 2-3 times in a large bowl.
- Cut in shortening with two knives or pastry cutter until the mixture is the consistency of cornmeal.
- Add Powdered Buttermilk and Powdered milk and mix uniformly to create your dry All purpose mix. Store in a Zip Lock Bag and keep in the fridge for 2 weeks
- Use in recipes that call for Bisquick or all-purpose mix. Add small amounts of cold water, cold milk, cold buttermilk, or other liquid required in your Dutch Oven Recipe.
- For Regular Biscuits: To get your desired biscuit consistency, use cold milk, cold water, or cold buttermilk. Canned milk and reconstituted powder milk work too. (Milk makes richer biscuits) Don’t over mix.
- Form biscuits. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes to rise a little before baking.
- Bake biscuits in a pre-heated “hot” oven at 450° for about 15 minutes or until golden brown


I came across this recipe online a while back and whilst baking it a number of times I have made a couple little tweaks to make it just that bit better, well I think so anyway.
So when I decided to bake this the other day, it only made sense that I should share this with you too.
You’re going to need;
For the cake
225g caster sugar
225g softened, unsalted butter
4 large eggs
Zest of 2 lemons (can do 1 if you prefer)
225g self-raising flour
For the drizzle
Juice of 1 to 2 lemons
70g caster sugar (use granulated sugar if you want it to be more crystallised)
First things first, make sure you turn your fan oven to 180C.
You’re then going to want to beat together with an electric whisk (if you don’t have one by hand will be fine) the butter and sugar until it is smooth and pale in colour, once you have done that you can add the eggs in one by one, slowly mixing it in each time.
Either whilst the cake is baking, or whilst it’s cooling (it really doesn’t matter) you can begin to make the drizzle. All you need to do is mix in the lemon juice and sugar, you may feel it needs some more sugar, if so then just add a little extra. Then once you’ve taken the cake out and it’s fully cooled down it’s time for the drizzle to go on. Keeping the cake in the tin you’re going to prick small holes all over so that the juice can get into the sponge, then pour the drizzle on top. Once you’ve poured it all I suggest you leave it for 10 – 15 minutes to let the sugar crystallise, I like to put it into the fridge as it works faster.
If you do end up baking this yummy cake then let me know below, you won’t regret it plus you’re friends and family will love you for it.

As I mentioned on Tuesday, I recently spent 12 days doing the Reset Programme where I gave up wheat, alcohol, dairy, sugar and caffeine. It was difficult, but I was prepared and organised and it wasn’t as hard as I’d thought it would be. But completely changing my diet – even for such a short time – made me realise how much I would normally eat. I noticed all the times I would have eaten, when I would have snacked, finished off the kids food, grazed when I wasn’t hungry and eaten food which wasn’t good for me or when I wasn’t hungry. I concluded that a lot of my eating was habitual, it was lazy and not particularly mindful.
I love food, and I think about it a lot, so I do often enjoy and savour it while I’m eating. But during the Reset programme I noticed a lot of times when I was eating fast and not savouring my meal. It was often mechanical (I need to eat this food) rather than a pleasure sensation. Now I’m not saying that our every meal should become an exercise in pleasure sensation through the worship of food, but I think a few changes could be made. I found that if I ate smaller mouthfuls I could taste it more. I don’t really know why but maybe if I was concentrating enough to take smaller mouthfuls I was probably concentrating on savouring it too. Whatever it was, I found I enjoyed my food more this way.
I also became more mindful about what I really wanted to eat. Usually there is some point in the day when I eat without thinking. During Reset I was able to take a step back and think about whether I was really hungry or just worried I might be hungry soon – an anxiety that I’m afflicted with often. And also I was able look at food that I would unthinkingly eat (like a cold bowl of pasta that my kids had left) and say to myself that actually, that’s not very nice and I don’t want to eat it.
Wow, don’t I sound like a saint! I’m not of course, and I know myself enough to be pretty sure that when I come back from holiday in a few weeks these new ‘clean’ mindful habits will be consigned to the past. But at least I know that I can make changes in my eating habits, and I have faith that I can pick it all up again the next time I do Reset.

This has been a great weekend. One full of community. Full of friends, both new and old. Full of late nights. Games played. Beautiful, vulnerable, grace-filled conversations. So really, it was one of the best kinds of full weekends.
We started the weekend off with seeing one of our oldest friends, “Uncle” Josh. Whenever he comes into town, we get ready for silly fun with the kids, great pizza, games, and homemade cookies.
So today, I’m going to share our delicious, super secret, cookie recipe. Except, when I say “our,” I mean Greg’s. I have never actually made these any cookies myself. And it’s not our recipe. It’s actually from the Joy of Cooking. This paragraph was just a series of disappointments. You’re welcome.
But in all seriousness, these cookies are amazing. And I take all desserts very seriously.
According to the recipe, this should make 3 dozen cookies. However, I prefer large cookies, so I feel less guilty and can only eat one cookie, instead of 5. So we only make 2 dozen. And with no more ado, here is the glorious recipe:
1 cup + 2 tbs all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 stick unsalted, softened butter
1/2 cup sugar (though we are a little generous with this measurement)
1/2 cup brown sugar (again, we are generous)
1 large egg
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375.
Combine flour and baking soda in a small bowl.
In a separate, larger bowl, beat together (on medium speed) the butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Once well blended, add the egg, salt, and vanilla.
Combine the flour mixture with the butter mixture. Be sure to stir until it is blended together well. Then add the chocolate chips.
Spoon out the dough and drop it onto the cookie sheet (already greased, don’t use tinfoil! It’s totally worth the dirty dishes to have some crispy edged cookies sans aluminum. And with that soft and gooey center (insert heart-eyed smiley face emoji. Seriously)). The key is not to over-knead it. (We literally use a regular spoon and drop it onto the cookie sheet.) Be sure to space them well. We space 3 cookies per row, with 4 rows.
Bake for 9-10 minutes. Transfer cookies to cookie rack, and bake the second dozen.
We love to make something for our guests. I feel like it is an intentional act that shows they are worth our time and our effort. But maybe especially because we usually order the actual dinner!
Except now they know how easy it is to make these cookies. I guess the important part is that I’m sharing delicious cookies with them.
Do you have an easy, go-to recipe when you have friends over? Or something that you think of when you are getting ready for some great time in community? (Like deep dish pizza? Just throwing it out there. I’m excited to hear what food you share with the people in your life!)


Chilly Milly Moo by Fiona Ross
“Milly Moo wanted to churn out the finest, loveliest, tastiest, creamiest milk. But she couldn’t.”
Milly Moo is sad. The farmer doesn’t understand why Milly Moo can’t make milk. The farmer says Milly Moo needs to make milk to stay on the farm.
A storm comes to the farm, bringing cold air. The other cows are cold, but Milly Moo is very happy. When the farmer tries to milk her, something strange happens.
“…there was an explosion of the coldest, chilliest, frostiest, iciest….ICE CREAM!”
This is a cute, silly book – sure to get giggles from young children when Milly Moo makes ice cream. Of course, I live in Vermont (think dairy cows and Ben and Jerry’s ice cream) and we have about a foot of snow outside right now.
Try making easy ice cream cows. All you need is vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup (or sauce), and a cow cookie cutter. (This would work with any animal cookie cutter, too).
