I love when dinner is a success

This week I’ve kind of been full of fail in the kitchen. I just haven’t been home to cook, or been super busy and didn’t have time to prepare dinner ahead of time. I’m sure it was just poor planning on my part.

Anywhoo, yesterday I defrosted three packages of chicken legs with the intention of making this. Obviously, based on that sentence I didn’t do it. So I made it today. Let me preface, we’re not a strict paleo-eating household, but I can get behind the diet in theory. I <3 bread. And butter. And heavy whipping cream in my coffee. So full-on paleo is not going to happen. [Read more...]

Sometimes I think I am floundering

We took our middle son to the pediatrician yesterday morning to address a few things – his stutters, some tics he’s developed, some we’ve been watching for a year or more, his in-toeing, his facial structure. You know, the usual. For us. [Read more...]

emeals.com

I know, I know. I was touting mealsbytheweek.com just a couple of months ago. But my cheap subscription ran out, and while I still love their system, I kind of like this one more. I get a nifty PDF I can print out ;) I absolutely have a file of them in my kitchen now.

I do not get a kick back if you register from this link: http://emeals.com

So while this isn’t a sponsored post, I do get a kick back if you sign up using my link. But I use their menus more often than I don’t. So there you go.

That out of the way, I love this site! Yah, I can meal plan my damn self for free. Except it costs me more than I pay in time, so for weeks I haven’t planned or days I don’t want what I’ve planned, it’s fab! [Read more...]

Has it been so long?

You know, when I ripped down my old blog (with some awesome insights in it, by the way) I had all intentions of posting at least once a week. I pulled down (but saved in PDF format) over ten years of inanities in lieu of, what I thought, would be something cleaner. Something fresher. Something that would help save the world. Or at least change it. Part of it. Ok, Maybe only my tiny part of it. It”s a start!

But no. While I’ve been rushing about from activity to activity, thriving on iced coffee (both bought and home made) and otherwise forgetting about anything outside of my tiny part of it, the world has gone on! It tends to do that you know. [Read more...]

Chores. You know I hate em

And sadly, so do my kids. So, with the help of Clean Mama (I do not get a kick back from her, I just <3 her!) and PhotoShop, I put this together for each of my kids: [Read more...]
