Hi – I miss you guys! Just a quick update… The above photo was from last week. So, I’m officially 32 weeks along and still feeling pretty good. Fortunately, I’ve been able to ...
Like my car… Yep, The Beater was in a minor fender bender this morning. Thankfully, no one was injured, but the car is totaled. Time for that minivan, huh? Another thing that must come to an ...
A good friend recently sent me her favorite fish recipe. Chris and I ate it for dinner a few nights ago, and now it’s our favorite fish recipe. It was so easy to make and only took about 10 m...
Well, nursery #2 is all ready. When we decorated Summer’s room, we kept everything gender neutral so that we could use it again for future children. However, Summer won’t be vacating he...
A few weeks ago, Foodbuzz contacted me with an offer to sample Mrs. Paul’s and Van de Kamp’s ParchmentBake Fish. Since I’ve been trying to eat more fish, I thought, Sure, why not? ...
I ran out of my beloved everything bagels earlier this week and decided to bust open the huge box of Kashi blueberry waffles I bought at Costco a few weeks ago. During my last toaster waffle phase,...
This is why I haven’t been blogging about food much… My meals are ugly and colorless (except for maybe the buffalo wing sauce). Pictured above is the 1st course of today’s lunch: c...
A walk through the neighborhood. Everything is starting to bloom… During nap time, I painted… There was also frozen yogurt with a dear friend who has moved to Chicago and had a baby sinc...
In-between trying to get the twins’ room ready, trying to rest whenever I can, and trying to eat every few hours (still hating food for the most part), I don’t really have much time to bl...
A few months ago, I bought several photo frames at Goodwill. I should have taken before pictures of them (they were old blah brown wood but only $.99 each), and here are some of the finished product...
Looks like chocolate coral reef, no? A brown sponge maybe? The above recipe was sent me to me by a reader (thanks Anita!). You can find the original recipe here along with several different versions...
Frolicking in the library’s courtyard after story time today. Happy Chuck Taylor Tuesday.
An update, shall we? I rejoined the Y, and even though a certain someone is NOT a fan of the nursery, we’re still trying to go a few days a week. I miss my yoga studio, but for some reason the...
When I was pregnant with Summer, and we found out she was a girl, I made this cake to share the news with family… And in honor of our baby girl, Carolyn, one of my best buds, made the infamous ...
Brandi tagged me in her 11 Things post. I’ve had fun reading other blogger’s random facts about themselves, and so here are mine… When I’m done eating an apple, all that̵...
Play dates… Paint samples: We’ve decided on Behr’s Natural Grey for the twins’ room. We’re having some repairs and painting done to their room this week, and yesterday ...
Things got a little fancy around here for lunch today. Normally, I put Summer down for her nap and then scarf down some type of wrap sandwich and afterwards, attack the ice-cream carton with a fork ...
Thanks again to everyone who voted in the Love Grown Foods Love Letter Contest. The contest is officially over and looks like I won. So if you liked my love letter, you’re eligible for a free ...
Because I’m sure none of you have encountered anything heart or loved-themed today… So how about some True Love Grits? Or perhaps some sourdough waffles instead? I have a heart-shaped waf...
Remember my Eric Carle inspired Valentine’s? Well, I also used my painted tissue paper for a special Valentine to my favorite granola company… My Valentine has been entered in the Love Gr...
Howard, this one is for you. Pancake Sunday is back, at least this week. My early morning breakfast… A good friend sent me her favorite pancake recipe, and I made it this morning. It’s ...
This morning, I made another one of Christin’s chickpea cookie recipes. Thus far, I’ve made her Cocoa Caramel cookies, the PB Explosion cookies, and today I made the chocolate mint vers...
I’ve been feeding my sourdough starter every three to five days, but I’ve only actually baked the bread once…until yesterday. I think I got burnt out on my mom’s bread after ...
CD and I have eaten enchiladas three times over the past couple of weeks…and he doesn’t even really like Mexican food. So, that’s saying a lot about this meal. It all started when...
Valentine’s Day was always so fun back in elementary school. Did anyone else make Valentine’s mailboxes out of old shoeboxes? We made them every year, and each student brought in a card...
Macaroni & cheese. I present to you my breakfast this morning… Leftover rice pasta macaroni and cheese with a chicken apple sausage (another favorite these days) and topped with lots of pe...
I have not eaten anything green in months. Just like during my first pregnancy, I’ve craved chicken and cheese, and when my sweet tooth pays a visit, I want chocolate and peanut butter. My us...
Our favorite photographer just posted the photos from Summer’s first birthday party on her blog. I’m so grateful that Emily and her husband were with us the entire day as they captured s...
Bear with me. Lots of peanut butter and chocolate cravings happening around here… Happiness: A pre-dawn bowl of oat bran with 1 TBSP Brewer’s yeast stirred in after cooking & topped ...
My first trimester was no fun, but I’m starting to feel better and have been spending more time in the kitchen. In fact, I have actually prepared dinner for the whole family twice this past we...
