Pesto is a food of love or hate in our house. My kids and I are big fans but Joel makes gagging sounds just at the mention of it. Dramatic, I know. He was in Boston a couple weeks ago for a work conference and although I hate when he is out of town (especially for

Sunday Inspiration {Father’s Day Edition}
Happy Father’s Day to all the dad’s out there and especially to all the men in my life. To my dad, thank you for always being a positive role model of what a loving, dedicated father and husband should be. For helping me with my math homework, even when I didn’t get the way you
Samoas Krispie Treats
You know what’s the best idea ever? A babysitter. During the week. While your husband is at work. That’s what’s going on as I write this. Yep, I’m in a coffee shop by myself sipping the most glorious iced coffee known to man. Is it really that good or is just because I’m alone and
Thai Grilled Chicken Legs
We’ve been trying to budget around here, which is totally not fun. But after several issues with our current house which were not disclosed when we purchased it, we’re getting really fed up. The winter brings frozen pipes leading to our washer…not good when you have two very messy children and do laundry every day.
Sunday Inspiration {Ice Cream Edition}
I just found out that June is National Dairy Month. I’m pretty sure ice cream is the best way to celebrate. Am I right? Magic shell to a 4 year old is like spotting a leprechaun or better yet, a unicorn. It just doesn’t get much better. Again with the sweet and salty. Seriously. Insane. And all

Here I am again, with another sweet and salty snack. I have a thing for them if you haven’t noticed. My kids caught a nasty virus this past week which meant lots of snuggling and not a lot of cooking. When cooking isn’t happening, unhealthy eating usually is. Ain’t nobody got time to cook a healthy meal or
Sunday Inspiration {Caribbean Edition}
Today is our anniversary, lucky number seven. Can’t believe this was 7 years ago, a lot has happened since then! We went to St. Thomas and St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands for our honeymoon. I dream of going back all the time and we’re hoping to for our 10th anniversary. When we were
Maple Brown Sugar Bacon and Egg Biscuits
It seems like people either love or hate breakfast. I, unfortunately, fall in the second category. I just don’t feel like eating right when I wake up and if I don’t, the kids wake up, chaos ensues and there is no longer time because they like to eat the second their eyes open. Plus, I
Maple Brown Sugar Bacon
Are you ready for your life to be changed? I know that’s a pretty big statement but it involves bacon so it’s pretty believable. I didn’t think bacon could get any better but when you add a sweet element to salty bacon? Yep. It does. I seem to be on some kind of sweet and salty kick
