I just got a new steel paella pan that needs to be seasoned and I'm bringing you along for the process! This is my first time seasoning a steel skillet, as I have only seasoned cast iron pans in the past, and it's also my first time using flaxseed oil to season a pan. I have tried coconut oil and lard before for seasoning and, honestly, the results were just ok, so I'm excited to see how the flaxseed oil works out! I've heard that flaxseed oil is the best fat for seasoning steel and seasoning cast iron and I'm looking forward to finally putting it to the test myself. I hope you enjoy this half vlog, half tutorial as I work on this kitchen project!

A lot of the foods I eat change throughout the year depending on what's in season and what sounds good to me at the time, but there are some healthy food staples that I always have on hand. These are all items that I keep around because they help me make tasty meals when I don't have something planned or my plans change and I need to cook something on the fly. I've done three videos like this previously I thought it was time for me to made another one and share more of the basic foods that I keep stocked in my kitchen. I hope this can give you some ideas and inspiration for your own meals and some insight into what I like to keep around.

When you're flying, it's a good idea to have some snacks packed. If your airport has some food items that you love, that's awesome, but there are still some reasons why you might want to bring your own food with you. Maybe you have a tight schedule and won't have time to buy food at the airport. Maybe you don't want to spend money on airport food that is more expensive than what you can buy elsewhere. Maybe you just want to be prepared in case your flight gets delayed or you get stuck on the tarmac for an hour before your plane even takes off. Whatever your reason, packing some snacks with you is a good idea. A lot of people think that you can't bring food through airport security or are unsure about the TSA food rules and regulations. The good news is, food is absolutely allowed and you can bring it through security. The only thing you need to be careful about is any liquid or spreadable foods. They have to follow the same guidelines as any other liquids you're packing. In this video, I'm sharing some of my favorite healthy airplane snacks. These are all easy to pack and you probably have several of them in your kitchen already! I hope these airplane travel snack ideas help you when you're packing for your next flight!

When you're on a road trip, it's a good idea to have some snacks packed. You can always buy food on the road, but there are a few reasons why you might want to pack some food too. Maybe you have a tight schedule and won't have time to stop for food. Maybe your route doesn't have a lot of convenient food options. Maybe you don't want to spend money on food that is more expensive than what you can pack yourself. Maybe you just want to be prepared in case you find yourself stuck in traffic or you have to take an unexpected detour. Whatever your reason, packing some snacks with you is a good idea. The good thing about packing road trip snacks is that you have lots of room to pack whatever you want, including bringing a cooler for cold items, and you don't have the restrictions on liquids that you do when flying. In this video, I'm sharing some of my favorite healthy road trip travel snacks. These are all easy to pack and you probably have several of them in your kitchen already! I hope these road trip snack ideas help you when you're packing for your next trip!
It's time for another garden update! September is coming to an end and there are some exciting and disappointing things happening in the garden. The peppers are looking great and we're getting rips fruits from all of the varieties now! Plus, some of the peppers are so productive that I'm not sure what I'm going to do with all of them! On a sad note, the tomatoes are pretty much done for, but I feel a little comfort knowing that this has just been a bad year for tomatoes in my area and everyone is pretty much in the same boat.
For a point of reference, I'm in Virginia in Zone 7. All of the plants in the garden we either seeded directly or started from seed inside, excluding a few basil plants. I like to grow a lot heirloom varieties, which means lots of interesting shapes and colors!
VARIETIES MENTIONED
- Lemon Drop pepper
- Brazillian Starfish pepper
- Sugar Rush Peach pepper
- Ralph Thompson Squash pepper
- Jimmy Nardello pepper
- Buena Mulata pepper
- Ahi Chinchi Amarillo pepper
- Chinese Five Color pepper
- Traveler's Strain Jalapeno pepper
- Craig's Grande Jalapeno pepper
- Blush tomato
- Mexican Sour Gherkin cucamelon
- Beary's Giant Zinnia
This past weekend, Jasen and I went to the Heritage Harvest Festival at Thomas Jefferson's Monticello in Charlottesville, Virginia!
We had a ton of fun tasting different fruits and vegetables, trying foods from the vendors, listening to the various speakers, and exploring the gardens at Monticello. I hope you enjoying this peek at the Heritage Harvest Festival!
About the Heritage Harvest Festival from their website:

The 12th Annual Heritage Harvest Festival, hosted by the Thomas Jefferson Foundation in partnership with Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, and Seed Savers Exchange celebrates Jefferson’s legacy, and the contributions to American cuisine by enslaved workers, in a family-friendly, exciting, affordable and fun-filled atmosphere, promoting gardening, sustainability, local food, and the preservation of heritage plants."

Ever wonder what a dietitian or nutritionist buys at the grocery store? Today, I'm showing you! In this video I'm showing you my healthy grocery haul from this week's shopping trip to Wegmans! This grocery haul is a good example of what my grocery shopping is like in the summer. Now that we are in farmers market and gardening season, I buy a lot less at the grocery store. Most of my produce is coming from the farmers market and garden right now, so the store is just for filling in the gaps and getting the items I can only get at the store. I'm shopping for two people, me and my husband, but I think you'll find this helpful (or at least interesting) no matter how many people you're grocery shopping for in your house.
