Well it’s hard to believe that our daughter will be here in a week.   We’re all scheduled!  It’s been a long… and short.. 9 months.  I feel like it’s flown by, but at the same time I feel like the last few weeks have lasted forever!  Very typical for an impatient pregnant woman! I have [...]

Mmmm… cheese.  By now everyone knows my affinity for cheese.  So, you can see why I was drawn to this.  My son explained that he would rather have “fresh noodles” (i.e. plain) or “regular mac ‘n cheese”, but I loved it.  Not to mention it was ready in under 30 minutes, and there was very [...]

As I rushed home late from work the other evening, I was a complete wreck from the day’s events.   I then walked in the door and saw my 2 smiling guys.   We huddled around the island in the kitchen to talk about the day, as I prepared this pizza and tossed up a salad.  I often [...]

Yes, there’s been a lag in my posting.  It’s called I’m-9-months-pregnant-with-heartburn.  I have been making a lot of tried ‘n true recipes (most of which have been posted here already) that are quick and simple.  So, I haven’t had much new to report.

I’m trying to focus on this post.  Truly, I am.  However, our carseat and stroller were delivered yesterday to our building, and is missing.  I love strollers, and I was so excited about this new one for our little girl… and then someone steals it.  I always think people are generally good, and this makes [...]

Have you ever gone out for fast food, expecting the ooey-gooey item you’re ordering to look just like the commercial?  Only to realize your big “splurge” that you were expecting isn’t even all that gratifying?  One way to rectify that issue is to take the delicious idea from the restaurant or fast food chain, and [...]
