Orville Redenbacher Healthy Holiday Snacking Giveaway
I am one of those people who can go all day without eating, but by the time 5pm rolls around I am starving and eat everything in site. I’m quite the picture of health, aren’t I? I need to lose what I still call “the baby weight”, although with an 18 month old now, I’m…
Morning Reality {Recipe: Cinnamon Swirl Yeast Bread}
Before I had kids, back when I was working 60-70 hours a week trying to get ahead in my career, I would dream about being a stay at home mom. I would picture myself getting up early in the morning, catching up on the news each day by watching The Today Show, pouring myself a…
Holiday Cocktail Hour {Recipe: Godiva Chocolate Martini}

The Family Dish – Let’s Cook Together! (Giveaway!)
The walk home from school is always full of some kind of drama. My friend Kathy’s kids often walk home with us as well. Her oldest daughter is the same age as Jacob so it never fails that there is some kind of 3rd grade boy / girl banter going on. Heaven forbid you act…
Polite Bread Eating {Recipe: French Bread Rolls}
I am a bread lover. If I had to give up all other food but one, bread would make the cut and would become my one and only. I love all kinds of bread. I do not love trying to figure out a polite way to eat crusty French rolls, though… do you? You…
