Watched Julis and Julia last night and it made me think of you! :)

I love this post, Moni! I especially love what you said about God being in the dream business, and that His dreams came true when He made us. That really hit home. Thank you! (Plus, the recipe is mouth-watering.)

I was at the pool last week and every mom was occupied on their phones... it made my think about my distractions.. though I don't have FB on my phone I can very easily get distracted by it in my home. Since leaving I have found more time to BE where I am rather than scan other peoples whereabouts. I too felt I was experiencing a false sense of "being connected". I have logged off for good and... everyone that is important and in my life.. are still there! :) Looking forward to trying this recipe!!

I know what you mean... I find myself getting caught up in Facebook all too often. I was sitting at a soccer game tonight, watching the mom beside text every few minutes to someone. I was very thankful to not have a cell at that moment. I am not ready to give up Facebook but I'm trying to make more out of my face to face friendships and interactions.

And that sauce sounds wonderful. I can't wait to try it with fresh from my garden tomatoes in a month or two.

Laura I am sorry they weren't as expected! Try using meat that hasn't been previously frozen, since the freezer can dry meat out.

I made this last weekend! I modified the pesto with basil rather than sage. I've seemingly have an abundance of basil this year.

As you advised not to do though, I overworked the turkey. :( I'll try again!

2011-06-13T10:00:58.642-04:00

Have you tried a patty press? Ditching bread crumbs and eggs brings much better results, and mixing the raw meat as little as possible. Season lightly and add flavour with your toppings, instead!
You should have the kids do a little farmers market stand on their new swing set! I'll be a loyal customer! That would be so fun!

Sjana you could leave the cumin out. You could try a little sweet paprika or cayenne pepper.

2011-06-12T11:32:40.485-04:00

Yum - anytime I've tried to make my own burgers, they fail. But I'm inspired to try again with this one! Also, I've got tons of produce I will be sharing this year :) I look forward to seeing what you do with it :)

This looks amazing! Is there something I can use in place of cumin? I have a real aversion there :)

2011-06-09T10:31:07.346-04:00

You have totally made my day! This is totally Saturday night's dinner! I have ground turkey in my freezer just waiting for a good recipe...and fresh parsley in my garden. (As well as TON of basil, cilantro, dill, thyme and organo). Please more herb-y recipes!!!

Yum. Oops, I just drooled on my keyboard.

I believe you can buy smaller quantities of tahini at the bulk food stores too.

I can't wait to make this, Moni. Thanks for sharing today. It was truly delish!

2011-05-31T10:29:01.323-04:00

Laura, I buy mine at Zehrs in the peanut butter aisle. It's a rather big jar, so I have shared some with others, although it does last for quite some time in the fridge.
Christina, we love wraps as well! Meals in a flash! I love that there are more gluten free options these days.

2011-05-31T09:06:01.660-04:00

That looks amazing! I'll have to try it! I've recently become addicted to wraps - ever since I discovered gluten-free, brown rice wraps. Mmmm...

I planted alfalfa seeds on Friday! I'm so looking forward to them sprouting now to try this meal!

Where do you find tahini? I'm not sure what aisle it resides in and I've been looking!

"but in the end, it's the possibilities I am after. The unity it creates in our family, the real life learning there is so much more time for." I love this! What beautiful motivation!!! :)

I made a batch of your crispie treats on Saturday, with a note this morning in the empty container to please re-fill. I think that says they liked them. Thanks for a crowd pleaser treat.
