sunday brunch is creamsicle smoothies and scrambled tofu tacos. I wanted something different for a smoothie today, so I turned to the book Health Nut for this one with orange, frozen mango and banana, turmeric, oat milk, and vanilla. I’ll be making this all winter! #food #cooking #cookbooks

these are chewy lemon-rosemary cookies from the new Cookies book by Vaughn Vreeland. I do luv a “pan-banging” cookie, and I had plenty of rosemary. #food #baking #cookbooks
