Post image for 4 Tasty Summer Herbs We Love

I always find this time of year is the perfect time to start growing your own herbs to season your delicious summer meals. I always love having rosemary in my home. The smell is so refreshing and isn’t too strong — the same with thyme. Place a little seed box on your windowsill, plant some seeds and let them grow… it’s economical, entertaining and a great way to spice up your meals. Read more »

I love all of these! I made a dish with olive oil shrimp and rosemary mixed with pasta. It was so good! http://happinessiscreating.com/

I have been wanting to do this for so long, just afraid they might die. I don't have a green thumb or a nice little windowsill that the sun shines into all day, that isn't full of a cat. lol..

Hey I don't know if it's too late for the writer's birthday but, I'm lactose intolerant and LOVE ice cream cake! This year my amazing boyfriend, knowing that I love ice cream cake but can't have it, made me an ice cream cake out of So Delicious coconut milk ice cream. SO AMAZING! He even added crushed up dairy free chocolate cookies between the layers instead the crunchy things in Carvel cakes. See if you can find a recipe so you can still have your cake :)

Thank you for this I have a terrible egg allergy since I was an teenager and just eliminated every single product that have eggs on it, I just got used to avoid foods that contains eggs like cakes and pancakes & though I dont even miss them anymore, I do like to cook and bake but I cant never taste what I bake so I have to ask someone else to see if the result is ok (my sister loves to be my guinea pig je,je), but I might try to bake some muffins with this, just to try something new and be able to tell if it taste good or not, but I would like to know for how long can I store this seeds if they aren't grinded. Can I keep them in the kitchen cabinets or I have to put them on the fridge? Thank you in advance!
Holly Cromer -Apr 26, 2013, 11:01AM
I have an egg allergy and I never know that I could use flax seeds instead! I will for sure be trying this out soon :) So glad I found this post.

JUST MADE IT!! the syrup was so good! it was really sweet but once u added the sparkling water it tasted off... it wasnt flavorful enough... i think i might just use the strawberry syrup stuff and put it on some vanilla ice cream yumm:)

You can also add half of a banana and walnuts for some extra flavor and texture to this divine recipe!

These look good! I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but I'm warming to it now that I'm gluten-free. :) For those looking for dairy-free chocolate chips, I buy Enjoy Life chocolate chips. You can find them at just about any grocery store -- I buy mine at Super Target.

Post image for Recipe: Festival Detox Smoothie

Music festivals are amazing, but recovering from them is a different story. Three days of dancing in the hot, hot sun can leave your body exhausted and dehydrated, taking it’s toll well after you’ve left the festival. Read more »

Hi!! This sounds amazing!! I was just wondering if coconut oil is good for you? I heard some places it's really bad and I'm scared to use it! Thanks!
Tanya -May 21, 2013, 6:45PM
