Parenting is like a roller coaster. One that makes you scream, scream some more, and often times vurp in your mouth. Yesterday was that day. The day started off normal enough…way too early and with...
Tomorrow happens to be a very special day. It’s Mother’s Day and if you are just finding out about that than you are gonna need the recipe I’m sharing with you today. Mom will never know that the...
One of my favorite breakfasts for as long as I can remember is Eggs Benedict. Growing up my family and I used to take trips to Mammoth Lakes, CA in the summer. I think it was there, at a little...
Summer is approaching and that can mean only one thing. I have to take ALL the kids grocery shopping with me. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Oh, the horror! You may think I’m being overly...
I’d like to think I’m a rather giving person. Except when it comes to sharing my cheesecake. Or Diet Coke. Or chocolate. And, on occasion, the warm down comforter on my bed. Golly gee Beave that...
The hills are alive with the sound of…sneezing? Ahhahahahhhhhh. Oh wait, wrong Julie Andrews movie. ”Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down…the medicine go down, the medicine go down.”...
Dinner time at our house has become somewhat of a merry-go-round. It feels a lot like an amusement park in general. Children laughing, crying, making sounds with their mouths that wouldn’t be...
I’m a bit quirky. I have a feeling you are not the least bit surprised. For the past couple of weeks I’ve been spending lots of time in the car. Eating, working, resting, and a lot of waiting...
I think I’m back. It seems as though when I start to feel I’m back to normal something happens to pull me back over the “my life is crazier than normal” side of things. This weekend I spent time in...
Over the past few weeks I’ve discovered a few things about myself. One. I love to escape into Tim Burton’s magical worlds in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Alice in Wonderland. I could watch...
I realize in recent days that BGM has turned into somewhat of a dessert du jour. Dessert, in my opinion, has no real dietary purpose. It’s one true purpose in life is to bring a smile to your face....
Careful! You don’t wanna slip on that banana peel…or is it a banana peep!? Now you see it. Now you don’t. And is that a fried egg? Nope. It’s a bit of vanilla greek yogurt topped with a halved...
Oh, where do I even begin!? First of all, Happy Easter friends! I’ve so missed connecting with you every day and sharing the insanity that is my life. Still counting my blessings, especially on...
Oh my dear friends, I have so much to share with you. You may have noticed a slight lull in posts on BGM, Facebook, Twitter, and the like. To put it bluntly, I’ve been sucked up in the whirlwind...
I often look back on my childhood with a longing to go back. Revisit some of those care free days when, as a child, most everything is done for you. Your main worry is to go to school, a few...
Once upon a time a cute girl met a cute guy. After months of dating they got married. Years later they bought a house where they made many memories, brought home new babies, and tended to their...
A month ago I was visiting family in California. A week ago I was waiting to hear from a realtor with a client who wanted to buy our house, and every hour in between I was eating chocolate, in some...
Do you hear that!?! A faint rumble. Hmmm. It seems to be getting louder. And Louder. And LOUDER. AHHHHHHHHH! It’s right at my front door!!!! Save yourselves…it’s…the snack time monsters! Seriously....
There are two things that our family really enjoys. Eating out and Chinese food. As you can imagine, with four boys and a tight budget, that doesn’t happen too often. As a result I have become...
They say that necessity begets creativity. I’m here to tell you it’s true. These stuffed cookies were created on a Sunday like any other or at least I thought so. I remembered that I promised our...
When I was growing up we lived within a short driving distance around my aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents. That’s ALL my family. Big, noisy, and completely awesome. Holidays were divided...
I know it’s not technically New Years anymore but it’s never too late to make healthier choices. It’s something I’m always striving to do but continually falling short. I’ve recently been trying to...

I always know when spring is around the corner. Not only do the boys start getting antsy for warmer weather but three little words begin to be uttered all over the country. Girl. Scout. Cookies....
Mr and the boys spent all last week on their own while I was in California. They survived. The house is still standing and if you knew my hubby that wouldn’t surprise you. Mr Mom to the rescue!...
I consider myself a pretty lucky gal. Not only is my husband incredibly handy, washes dishes, and folds laundry BUT he also cooks. I know. You just wet yourself a bit and thought, “I wonder if he...

If there is one thing in life that is always predictable it is that life is, in fact, never predictable. Take, for example, the last five weeks of my life. We’ve had the typical busyness that a...

They say behind every good man is a good woman. Today I’d like to turn that table around and say behind every good woman is a good man. My man is a good man. He is strong and caring and mostly...
