Today I found an old picture of Audrey and me, doing a project. πŸ’š

I was trying to explain the microbiome, by making a simple list πŸ“ of things that support good bugs and bad.πŸ₯¦πŸŸ

She liked the stickers most! πŸ˜ŠπŸ’š

Our meat delivery just arrived in time for delicious pork belly on the weekend πŸ™ŒπŸΌπŸ₯³

I prioritize getting the best quality of meat and I’m constantly trying new options. It’s a real challenge to find THE perfect bacon with no added sugar at all.

I can really recommend and I love their recipe ideas. Comes in handy when after-school activities get too busy with four kids πŸ’š

Our appetizer of the day: Classic Mussels Mariniere πŸ˜‹πŸŒŠ Simple to prepare, but adds tasty drama to the table. As you can see in the picture, we went a bit overboard with the minced garlic. That’s totally up to you; we just love it. See the second slide for instructions πŸ“

This Blueberry Gin Cocktail is such a treat β€” especially on a 80F pool day πŸ’¦ We still had so many containers of Blueberries left from the 🫐-picking farm and we had to get more creative πŸ‘©πŸ»β€πŸŒΎ

To begin you will need to make a simple blueberry syrup, which takes just a few minutes. Over medium-high heat blueberries, whatever sugar you prefer, and water. Reduce to simmer for about 15-minutes until you have a syrup consistency 🍹

Hope all of you had a happy 4th of July Weekend πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ We had no big plans, just hanging out at the pool all day, a delicious BBQ, and watching the fireworks.

We had homemade potato salad, with roasted zucchini (super easy and fast; only a few minutes on the grill), and tomato-mozzarella with balsamic vinaigrette πŸ… My husband took care of the steaks and burger patties on the grill πŸ₯© A successful holiday with the family, without feeling guilty after indulging in tons of fast food.

This place is such a gem if you are ever close by the Baltimore, MD area. I love the concept of fresh farm-to-table restaurants and this one was just exceptionally delicious. Everything was of excellent quality, a beautiful presentation, and prepared with so much love for details. Our absolute favorite was the appetizer: crispy pig ears and juicy pig cheeks πŸ– You can’t leave there without trying!! We also had seared duck and the grains risotto with mushrooms and broccoli πŸ₯¦ Desserts were a treat as well. I loved the cocoa compassion chocolate pot de creme πŸ˜‹

I just love chocolate. Dark melted chocolate, with triple chocolate, and chocolate chunks inside πŸŽ‚ I love to live a healthy lifestyle, but I also like to indulge with treats at special occasions. I tried to make a gluten-free, dairy-free chocolate cake with almond flour, tapioca flour, and coconut sugar 🍫 To make it super dense, we baked a regular cake with cocoa powder, and crumbled the baked layers into a β€œcake-pop” kinda dough. I had no real plan, however, it was definitely a success! Have a happy day β˜€οΈ @ Cape May, New Jersey
