Spring Has Sprung, and We’re Giving Away a Kitchenaid (and more)! #BornOnTheFarm

April 26, 2016 By Food Retro

It’s funny. Although it has been a mild winter compared to last year, this year seemed rougher. February in particular was a dark and dank month. The weather was unpleasant, people were isolated, and  it just. Dragged. On. But hey, the sun is coming back, the grass is green, and the weather was even tolerably nice…

Onion and Cottage Cheese Scones #BornOnTheFarm

February 23, 2016 By Food Retro

This cold that’s been going around is so yucky, the winter has been so dreary, and I’ve felt like such a shut-in, I admit I haven’t taken as much joy as I usually do in things like baking and cooking. Or anything. The result is that we’ve been eating less healthy, and that has just…

Resolutions I Can Live With (+ Maybe Keep)

January 27, 2016 By Food Retro

I’m not generally a fan of New Year’s resolutions, at least not for myself. It’s not that I’m against them in theory – self-improvement is awesome – but in practice they tend to end up at the bottom of my priority list.  This year, the resolutions I’ve made are more for kidlet than me, but…

Two Ingredient Vegan Healthy Instant Blueberry Ice Cream

July 31, 2015 By Food Retro

 This five-minute vegan, sugar-free instant ice cream, made with just two ingredients, was one of those “necessity is the mother of invention” products.   My frustration level with allergy-friendly ice cream and popsicles hit maximum during the spate of 40 celcius weather we’ve been having. There’s a crap-ton of coconut ice cream out there on the market….

How to have an Allergy-Friendly (and Healthier!) Easter Egg Hunt

March 26, 2015 By Food Retro

Not only is Easter an annual sugar-bender for kids, it can be a real challenge to moms of children with food allergies–especially if the child is allergic to milk–and food allergies are becoming an ever-increasing problem. It’s tough to strike a balance between fun and healthy eating habits. So here’s some tips on being allergy-friendly,…

That Time My Kid Touched a Kit Kat and Could Have Died (a Story About Life with Food Allergies)

March 6, 2015 By Food Retro

The bus my six-year-old son rides finally pulls up to where I am waiting; it is 10 minutes late. Every time it is late, I worry that there has been an incident, especially when I have heard sirens anywhere in the area. It’s a fairly low-grade fear, however; I live in a city of 500,000…

Why Vitamins Maybe Aren’t Such a Waste of Money

January 26, 2015 By Food Retro

The vitamin supplement industry has been a little under fire recently, with many hopping the bandwagon that in North America, with all the food advantages that we have plus a little “outdoor time” thrown in, they’re not required.
