Air-Fried Charred Shishito Peppers + Power AirFryer XL Review

Post in partnership with Tristar Products Inc. I had never heard of shishito peppers, let alone taste one, until we moved to Japan for the first time in 2002. Since then I have been making up for lost time, eating them whenever I can get my hands on them. My favorite way to eat them […]

Why didn’t the mother potato want her daughter to marry the famous newscaster? Because he was a commentator. Bahahahahahaha! Ok, sorry, I’ve got kids, remember? I currently live in the land of corny jokes! But in all honestly, I don’t think that “common-taters” exist. I love all taters. But sweet potaters do take the tater […]

Post written in partnership with California Avocados. Happy Friday! Are all my friends back east surviving the aftermath of the bomb cyclone? I’ve been watching weather reports and getting the chills just thinking about it. We are currently experiencing warmer than normal temperatures here in Utah and we have very little snow so far. January […]

Post written in partnership with Copper Chef. Seven days left until Christmas Day! Can you believe it? This Christmas season has seemed to fly by even quicker than normal. I’m guessing that part of that is due to the fact that we have been trying to unpack our house in addition to all the things […]

It’s that time of year when the weather starts to heat up and I start to crave something cold to drink. One of my favorites is a frappe (basically a fruit milkshake) and I’m sharing a non-dairy version over on California Avocado’s blog, The Scoop! It’s a Cherry Almond California Avocado Frappe and it’s delicious. […]

Have you ever had a cauliflower steak before? I know they’ve been around for a while now, but if you haven’t had one yet, you should! I love them. I’m sharing a bit of a twist on cauliflower steak over on California Avocado’s blog, The Scoop. These cauliflower steaks are roasted with a mashed avocado […]

Hula Papaya Rawnola Bowls…you need these. Let me explain. At the beginning of this month we took a family vacation to Maui during the kids’ Spring Break. This was our first family vacation with Monkey and we were super excited. Our trip did not disappoint. Not only did we have an absolute blast playing in […]

This post is brought to you by Kamikoto Knives. I love things served in bowls. Now, I know this has been a bit of a trend, at least here in the US, but my love for bowls goes way back. This is probably why I love Japanese donburi so much. A donburi, put simply, is […]

Happy 2017 my friends! I have been taking a much needed break to focus on our sweet new baby girl and moving. We sold our previous home and finished moving out the week before last and are now temporarily living with my in-laws while our new home is being built. (Squeeeeee!!!!!) Talk about starting the […]

Life has felt a bit overwhelming lately. To say that I’ve put a few things on my plate would be a gross understatement. But of course, Mr. Fuji and I are gluttons for punishment and made a very quick decision to put our house on the market . . . which happened last week while […]
