Spelt and Kale Lunch Salad. July 27, 2015. If you aim bring lunch to work every day, I’m sure you’ve had one of these nights: it’s past your bedtime, you have absolutely nothing lunch-worthy in the fridge, and you want an easy option to pack the next morning. Recipe: Spelt and Kale Lunch Salad. 1 cup uncooked spelt (I used Bob’s Red Mill. 2 tsp honey (or more to taste). 2 tbsp dijon mustard. 1/3 c olive oil. 1 bunch curly kale. 1/2 cup sunflower seeds. Pour off any excess water from your cooked spelt.

Packing for a 2-week Trip with the Timbuk2 Aviator | Stephanie Does

Packing for a 2-week Trip with the Timbuk2 Aviator. May 25, 2014. When we booked a 2-week trip to Germany, I needed to replace my broken old backpack. Timbuk2’s Aviator backpack. The smaller, non-wheeled version) caught my eye. I liked how the front fully unzipped so you could pack with full access, just like a suitcase. I also liked the subtle design and black color; it’s more of a city bag than something you’d take on a camping trip. 2 pairs of leggings (1 black, 1 gray print). 1 pair running shorts.

Mexican Cocoa Nib Cookies. July 11, 2015. We made the excellent decision of ordering five pounds of bulk cocoa nibs from Urban Greens. I’m going to a friend’s birthday cookout today, and since he’s a creative cook, I thought some cocoa nib cookies were in order. With thousands of positive reviews into this more unusual combination. Recipe: Mexican Cocoa Nib Cookies. Double chocolate spiced cookies with cocoa nibs and pecans. Makes about 20 cookies. 1 stick butter, softened. 3/4 cups white sugar. Bake for...

Category Archives: small bites. January 15, 2015. Over 5 years after our honeymoon in Hawaii, I’m recreating one of my favorite discoveries of the trip: Spam Musubi. We picked some up in a convenience store near the volcanoes and it was an unexpectedly good breakfast. It was also the first time I’d ever eaten Spam. Though we had plenty of fresh fruit, raw fish, and other delights, this portable snack stuck in my mind. Makes 10. Adapted from several recipes. 2 cups uncooked sushi rice. 1/2 cup rice vinegar.

Two Weeks in Germany with the Timbuk2 Aviator | Stephanie Does

http://stephaniedoes.com/2014/two-weeks-in-germany-with-the-timbuk2-aviator

Two Weeks in Germany with the Timbuk2 Aviator. June 25, 2014. Here’s a post-trip followup to my earlier post about packing the Timbuk2 Aviator. I was very happy about my decision to take a backpack instead of a rolling suitcase. After our flight, we had a train journey with three transfers going from Frankfurt to Berlin – and that was just our first destination. Rolling a suitcase through stations and down the train aisles would have been frustrating. Some spirits from Dr. Kochan Schnapskultur. Around th...

Galapagos Journal | Stephanie Does

http://stephaniedoes.com/2013/galapagos-journal

April 6, 2013. We went on an amazing trip to the Galapagos last month. We saw and did so much, I knew I had to keep a journal to remember everything. Some of my fellow travelers asked me to scan it, so I figured why not share with the internet too? Click for an interactive version). I love to keep a paper journal but it’s been difficult to find the time in the last few years, so I relished the chance to spend a computer-less vacation with pens and paper. The notebook is made by Michael Roger. I come from...
