Tonight I got home from work and tried out a “Margo original”. I’ve been super in to wraps & sandwiches lately. I crave breakfast sandwiches (I’ve been good and make my own healthy version and take them to work), burgers, etc. The cafeteria at work serves up big wraps full of all sorts of things [...]
I got up early this morning. Partially because I am uncomfortable (I know, I’m only 3 months pregnant, but I already feel like I chronically pulled a muscle in my bum, or my hips are spreading …. like I need that!), and partially because I wanted a little quiet me-time. 2 seconds later my boy [...]
Today I have the day off. No, not from work… from cooking. I know, hard to believe, right? Well this week I made things to get rid of what we had in the fridge/freezer… and I have a ton of leftovers. So, today is leftover day. I rarely have these, I admit. Neither my husband [...]
So this weekend I was home alone with my son while my husband was on a business trip. We packed it full of activities, errands, and everything else under the sun. I’m pooped. So, I’ve made a daring decision… other than a couple things that I picked up at Target (milk, frozen broccoli, and butter), [...]
Well, I’m not sure how appropriate this picture is for a food blog…. but here it is folks… our big news… Yes, it’s true… this Multitasking Mom is going to have to multitask a lot more after next April. I’m 10 weeks along and feeling good! Ok, I lie… I’m queezy, hungry, and sleepy… but [...]
Well, we’re back from vacation! I’ll be blogging about it soon… it was such a nice trip. We headed up to Wisconsin Dells and stayed at a hotel with a waterpark. My 3 year old had a blast. They even has pajama story time each night. It was perfect for his age. I was also happy [...]
Well there will be a brief hiatus as my family heads to the waterpark capital for some pool time and R&R. I have some great recipes in the queue to post when I return. Last night I made an old favorite – Chicken Stroganoff. I also want to post a recipe for this ground chicken [...]
I plan meals… diligently. But the other night I had no plan, and didn’t really feel like ordering out either. So, I needed to get creative. My mother tries to remind me that sometimes the ol’ simple standbys are delish. I hunted around the cabinet… tuna… noodles… 98% fat free cream of mushroom soup… And [...]
It was my last “Summer Hours” Friday yesterday. Since I had a little extra time, I made this dish. I do think it’d be too much for my “20 – 30 minute” criteria for a weekday. I made the sauce with a jalapeno instead of the scotch bonnet for less heat. Um, yeah…. it was [...]
We love tostadas… but boy are they messy. I make my own version (also posted on this site) but I’m always looking for others. (I’m also looking for a great fish taco recipe…. so send one this way!) I received this recipe from Cooking Light the other day. The tortilla gets crispy on [...]
