Oh, this poor chicken dish. I’ve had it in my queue since last June! But then something else came up…awesomeness off the grill, or a gorgeous salad, then the holidays. I [...]
Spring has definitely sprung where I am, with temperatures in the high 70′s and buds on the trees – making soup isn’t exactly on my radar anymore. But with all [...]
Some foods are just harder to get kids on board with. Beef and chicken were challenging ones with mine for a while…until I introduced bones, and then they were in. [...]
Trevor’s not in school full time yet, and even though he is infinitely better at independent play than Haley ever was, there are still a lot of hours each day [...]
Up until recently, I’ve never been very eager to buy fresh pineapple. Not because I don’t like it, but because it’s sort of a pain to deal with. (Very similar [...]
Don’t you think anything that includes Hawaiian as part of the name, automatically takes it up 5 notches? I’ve read about people selling everything they own, relocating to Hawaii (and [...]
It’s only Day 3 of our no-junk-food challenge and it’s been every bit as challenging as the word suggests. I’ve decided that somebody needs to put a padlock on the [...]
I’m still recovering from this, so not a whole lot of jibber-jabber from me today. (You’re crushed, right?) Let’s just get straight to business… My friend Anne pointed me in [...]
This was making the rounds on Pinterest (what isn’t these days?!)…impossible to know who to credit anymore for the idea, when everyone you follow is writing about the same thing. [...]
My friend Nicole hates to cook; it’s a complete chore to her. I think she’d rather pick up poop from her pet sitting business or scrub her bathroom floors than [...]
I say who needs the Superbowl as an excuse to do away with forks and spoons…I have enough snacks bookmarked to last me an entire year. I can’t keep up! [...]
It’s 2012. How many checks have you already messed up by writing 2011 on them? Oh, that’s right…I’m the only one still using a checkbook. What can I say? I’m [...]
Up until last week, my kids and the guns going off (apparently from duck season), were the only two things that could get me out of bed at 6 o’clock [...]
I couldn’t wait for Haley to start Kindergarten. Those extra hours that would finally be mine. I looked longingly at my to-do list of what I could finally get accomplished. [...]
Looking for a dish that will make your toes curl? Look no further. Chicken paired with savory mushrooms and sweet peas…and a sauce that you go to bed dreaming about. [...]
(picture credits at the bottom of the post) Haley starts Kindergarten tomorrow. Big day. Exciting day. But it also marks summer coming to an end. Sigh… I love summer. Loooove [...]
You know what I love? A good hair day. (And since that almost never happens, when it does happen, it’s actually a great hair day.) I also love when Haley [...]
Well, waddya know. It’s spring. I barely even wore a scarf or hat this winter, so the changing of the seasons wasn’t that obvious. But I see it now. We [...]
I sure didn’t think I’d be talking about soup in April, but you know what – soup does not discriminate when you’re sick. It can be 70 degrees outside, but [...]
Let’s imagine for a minute we didn’t have fingers. We wouldn’t be able to draw, type, play piano, give a scalp massage, point, snap, finger paint, scratch our nose (“it [...]
