Wow…my schedule over the next few weeks…is pretty crazy. I made a grocery list and did my shop yesterday…and I can’t tell you how much lighter I feel knowing that we are prepared…well…prepared for dinner anyway…for the next week. 😉 I am at the point where I need a list for all my lists, but …
Wow…this year is flying by! We just turned the calendar to November and before you know it we will be saying good-bye to 2017. I checked the weather this morning and saw the mention of a possibility of flurries later next week. It’s finally time to start planning for some soups and stews and putting …
October 20th…is that right??? What the heck! Wasn’t it just the first day of school last week? Our fall schedule is jammed this year…like seriously…booked. I think for a lot of families this is a busy season in life and the days and weeks often blur together. Fall marks the return to comfort foods, slow …
I love Thanksgiving. It’s one of my favorite holidays with the focus being on family and food. On top of that, the weather and beautiful fall foliage, has me swooning. We always head back to my in-laws on Sunday for a big family feast, but I also host a family dinner here on Monday which …

OK…we’re 2 days into back-to-school and I already feel the need to get uber-organized. Hockey has already started, and there will soon be soccer try-outs and early morning band practices, games, dances, work…all those good things that make our lives full and fun. Depending on the week and the activity, sometimes supper is eaten at …

Well, I had quite the weekend! There was some cooking, some relaxation and some big firsts. I have been feeling a bit unmotivated lately when it comes to cooking…mostly…I am tired of it. I enjoy cooking, but there are times I just feel I need a little break. I may have mentioned to the kids …
So…that was March Break I guess? It went really quickly and we finished it off with a snow storm…UGH! We didn’t go far but we did have a good week with another visit to The Barn and a little more Forced Family Fun. My youngest even made a batch of M&M Springtime Cookies today, paying …
Ok, I’m keeping it real here, it’s March Break this week and all my kids are off and home. We usually don’t jump on a plane and head to the beach, we stay close to home, plan a few things and also just “go with the flow” and maybe even try to feel the “break” …
