Picture this… you are doing your weekly grocery shopping with your 3 year old and 8 month old in tow. The 8 month old is about at the end of her rope… she is tired and hungry. You rush out to the car, buckle both kids into their seats and start unloading the groceries. You…

My Fridge & Menu Planning
Jennifer over at Nutcase 101 challenged her readers last week to show the contents of their fridge. I promised her I would do it, but I am a little nervous about it. No… my fridge is not a scary dirty pit… it is almost the opposite. My fridge is always bare. How can someone who…
Peanut Butter Chocolate Goodness
I tend to be one of the first people I know to try new products. Yes…I am a complete sucker for a new idea. I will try something new before the buzz about it hits the streets and the reviews are out on whether the product is great or a bomb. It should come…
Mousse di Cioccolatto Bianco
We are going on day seven of sick kids. Of course, my children decide to get sick when the weather turns nice. We have gone from freezing temps to mid 60’s in the matter of a week. Unfortunately, they have all been too sick to get out and really enjoy any of it. I am…
Cheese Bread
It’s a fact of life that relationships come and go. Some relationships are meant to last forever. Others…not so much. Prior to meeting and marrying my wonderful gem of a husband, I had a few relationships that I imagined at the time would last forever. As time went by it became obvious that forever was…

If you read my food blog, you’ll see that I had a bit of a pie flop. The pie ended up being salvaged and turned into vanilla cream pie milkshakes. One little chunkin in our family was very pleased with the resulting milkshake and held her mouth wide open until someone would shovel the next…
Waiter! What the heck happened to my pie??

Lack of Material
I have to apologize for the lack of posts over in this section this week. My kids just haven’t giving me much material to work with. Here’s why: You know it is a bad sign when after naps, a 3 year old and a 5 year old come down stairs, plop on the couch…
Would you be missed?
A simple Ice Cream Sandwich Dessert made with store-bought ice cream sandwiches. Did anyone out there watch Grey’s Anatomy last night? Surely they are just teasing the viewers, aren’t they? I mean, seriously, if a show is named after your character, you’d think that would guarantee you some sort of job security, right? They can’t…
Fluffy French Toast
I hope everyone enjoyed their Valentine’s Day. My husband took the day off of work and we had a nice relaxing day just hanging out at home. I had to go to the school Valentine’s Day party and I had a meeting in the afternoon, but besides that it was a nice relaxing day at…
