It is now September. September! Can you believe that? I love spring. I adore summer. I am crazy about autumn! The only thing I don’t like about autumn is that at the end comes winter, and I could totally and completely do without winter. Autumn conjures up so many warm and cozy feelings for me….

Menu Plan Monday – On Tuesday
It feels like Monday to me. Actually, it kind of still feels like the weekend. After two full weeks of school, our kids have their first offical day off for Teacher Inservice things. I love it when they extend an already long weekend with an extra day off of school, but it makes me wish…
Dishing Up Confessions
I’m feeling a bit of a wild hair tonight and am in the mood to get some things off my chest. I have some confessions to make… some may shock you, some, not so much. Sit back, grab a beverage, and let me share with you some of my deepest secrets. Let’s just get the…
Back to School…Back to Menu Planning!
S’Mores Galore I am bound and determined to get it in gear this week. My goal is to get back on the Fly Lady bandwagon, gain control of my diet/exercise program, and to commit to menu planning again.

Hand Me Downs

My family loves fish. Well, I am not sure if that is exactly true. My family loves fish that does not taste like fish, like this Lemon Baked Cod. If the fish has a fish flavor, the fish is not loved. However, if I can spice up and drown out the fishy flavor of the…
A Foodie Friend Tribute
I was traveling in the car last week on the way to South Padre for vacation when when a message popped up on my Twitter account about the loss of wonderful food blogger. Sher, of the blog What Did You Eat? passed away suddenly from a heart attack last week and has since left huge…
Just Don’t Think About It
I’m going to start this post off with a self-slap to my face, a shake, and a loud, “Kristen…get a hold of yourself!!!”. I need to pull it together, and I need to do so quickly. I have been an emotional wreck this week thinking about my middle daughter, Kelly, starting Kindergarten. I know this…
