I have had the chance to [...]

Menu Plan Monday (Recipe: Taco Seasoning)

February 22, 2010

As I’ve mentioned time and time again on my blog, I have not always been a cook. In fact, I used to detest cooking. My husband still refers to our early days together as “back when you couldn’t cook” (nice, isn’t he?).

4 Kids, Life and Dinner (Recipe: Corn and Veggie Chowder with Chicken)

December 13, 2009

Someone who was expecting their fourth child asked me the other day how going from three kids to four kids has been. I feel sorry for the poor lady because she asked me on one of those days when I was feeling quite overwhelmed, and I was bluntly honest with her!
I love my family and [...]

Halloween Traditions (Recipe: Cheeseburger Soup)

November 1, 2009

I am sitting here tonight, surrounded by kids who have basically been on three days of extreme sugar highs, and I am reminded of why I do not love Halloween. I was a fan when I was a kid, and I do love my own share of candy and kiddos in cute costumes, but the [...]

We’re Eating In (Recipe – New York Style Pizza Crust & Sauce)

September 4, 2009

It happened for a reason. I’m sure of it. I was browsing Facebook one day last month when I came across a status update from Nicole at Pinch My Salt. She said something to the effect of “I’m not going to eat out for one month.. think I can do it?”. I responded that I [...]
