I’m so excited to introduce you to my friend Heather of Living Senses. Heather and I go way back — we first met in junior high — and our friendship has taken a variety of twists and turns. In short, we have fallen in and out of touch for more than 15 years.

We’re kicking off the first ever Fall Recipe Series on AnchorMommy with a visit from the fabulous Stephanie O’Dea of A Year of Slow Cooking and Totally Together Journal.
I don’t know if she knows it or not, but Stephanie was instrumental in helping me pull off my first ever Thanksgiving-esque meal.

As you read this, I will be scanning the beaches in Oregon for seashells. In other words, I’m on vacation and trying to wean myself off the Internet for a week. Luckily, I have a wonderful week of recipes lined up to help you celebrate the arrival of autumn!

This is a delicious and high-protein recipe that makes a great lunch or quick dinner.
Lemme guess. You’re thinking, kale? Who really eats that stuff? And wheatberry? What’s a wheatberry?

This pancake is sweet, filling and fluffy. You get an extra dose of fiber and protein from the whole wheat flour, and extra vitamin A from the sweet potato.

What is it about ice cream that makes me so nostalgic and reflective? Earlier this summer, a stop at our favorite ice cream shop took me on a trip down memory lane. Now, I have come to see the lesson in the gravest of ice cream accidents: a dropped scoop.

I’m not sure there is anything better in this world than starting a day with a plate of light, fluffy pancakes that are jam-packed with fresh huckleberries. The kind of pancake where every single bite explodes with huckleberry flavor.

Hummus is probably one of my favorite snacks. There are so many delicious versions in the grocery store, but I just can’t bring myself to buy them anymore. It is just too easy to make hummus at home, and it’s so much cheaper!

I think I’ve gone off the rails a bit lately. Usually, I’m all about healthy eating, but lately my four main food groups have been butter, sugar, chocolate and more butter…
So. It’s time to get back on track. Bring on the broccoli.

When I got asked to judge a local fundraiser called the Cupcake Collective, I think my sweet tooth hollered out “YEEEESSSSSSSS PLEEEEEEZE!” before I had time to think. (My sweet tooth is a living, breathing entity that speaks entirely on its own. It also has the ability to will my hand to pick up delicious goodies and shove them into my mouth. I swear, I have nothing to do with it.)

This is the story of a pretty rotten week, my attempt to find solace in a plate of brownies, and how I completely botched the recipe…only to discover one of the most delightful treats I’ve ever tasted: the Brownie Batter Sundae.
