Hot Melty Cheese!

IMG_0237 (450x600)

Boy oh boy – I thought yesterday’s list was long!! Matt does a FABULOUS job running this bakery, but there are many things that really need the KERF motivation to get done. When I arrive after cycle on Wednesday mornings, it’s go go go to fit it all into this one slammed day. But the good news is that most of the tasks are short and sweet – there are just a lot of them!!

Such as:

  • Hire floor cleaner
  • Update website
  • Check on tea
  • Check on Nat. Nutty
  • Constant Contact
  • Signs
  • Sept. menu
  • Employee paperwork
  • Email
  • Email
  • Bills

……… you get the idea!

And our air conditioning is …not working! It’s steamy in here!

Have you seen a fudgier brownie?

IMG_0240 (600x450)

Or a more delicious tofu sandwich! I left off the pesto today and added cheddar instead

IMG_0230 (600x450)

Loved the swap!

IMG_0229 (600x450)

Wrinkles = peaches are ready to eat

IMG_0231 (600x450)

I think this was the best one of the summer!

IMG_0235 (600x450)IMG_0228 (600x450)

Bite of our new Rainbow Cookie for dessert (M&Ms!)

IMG_0238 (600x450)

Trying to keep my cool. It’s really hard when it’s 85* in here and this laptop is HOT!

      I was wondering the same?

      All the tofu products available to me have soy proteins in them and a few other ingredients. I think it’s the Nori brand…can’t remember.

    I love cheddar cheese. I know goat is a better one for me, but I have no willpower (unfortunately). A couple of questions for you: I am addicted lately (I’m a mindless eater) to wild rice and brown rice cakes (well, I’m addicted to alot of things really, like chocolate and cookies, but I won’t open that door into myself). I know their not the best choices, and I buy “good” whole grains too, but I’m sick of tying “should” to food. I just like the crunch and can put anything on them: cheese/cottage cheese, yogurt!, jam, nut butter, avocado, butter, jam, hummus, anything really. I buy the “salted” kind. Salted isn’t so bad to buy is it? Its not loaded with it (not a bucket of salted fried chicken afterall).

        Thanks. I think carbs and sea salt get such a bad rap and enter the food guilt. Maybe a lesson for me to stop reading a lot of blogs and magazines. Gives me food guilt and food “crazies”.

      Chia seeds are pretty much chia seeds- some brands only sell the lighter ones, but there is no benefit to that- they just sift out the darker ones.

    hi! Im Kath.

    I'm a Registered Dietitian, healthy eater, and mom of two from Charlottesville, Virginia. Here you’ll find a healthy mix of real-life meals made from whole ingredients balanced with the pleasures of life, including buttercream frosting and good wine. Plus a sprinkle of nutrition, home life, beauty, parenting, and travel.
