Low Histamine Recipes to Enjoy. With February Updates!

Like every family our there, we have a lot going on! In our case it is homesteading with gardening, tending to the chickens and of course the land. Add in learning about our new home state of Texas, and exploring all that we can when we have open time. As well as time with family, and getting ready for the next celebration, because there will be one!  Here recently I have had to add something else...a Low Histamine eating plan. 

Creamy Cucumber Salad with Pickled Red Onions.

Our first crop to harvest from the garden was cucumbers. And while I have never been one to eat lots and lots of cucumbers, this Creamy Cucumber Salad with Pickled Onions is a new favorite! So much so, I recently replanted the cucumber bed...it's a funny thing, but fresh cukes from the garden are the best!

Josey Baker Bread for What Did You Read This Month Linky #20!

Welcome to the What Did You Read This Month? Book Review Linky, a monthly sharing link-up for books! Books of all kinds, romance, suspense, DIY, and my personal favorite, cookbooks! Personally I couldn't be happier that books are once again, back in fashion! 

And a great way to keep them front and center is to share a review of what you have read, if and how you enjoyed it, and if you would recommend that book to a friend! Oh and a story or two of how you came to own or stumbled upon the book would also be fun...because the human connection to a book is just as important! Since books are for everyone, let's all enjoy them, once again!

Chicken and Barley Skillet Meal, a dinner idea!

Cooking almost every meal we eat, is my usual kitchen style. Often requiring a bit of creative license to use what we have on hand in the pantry. When eating dinner, my husband will often turn to me and say, "are you going to blog this?” That is how a dinner idea came to be...not always a recipe, but too good, not to share.

Today we have Chicken and Barley Skillet Dinner.
