A hearty vegetable sandwich goes down as one of my top favorite sandwiches ever. There is so much you can do with the flavors in terms of seasoning, fresh herbs, dressing, etc. This one has grilled eggplant, zucchini, bell pepper and red onion and fresh tomato, basil and arugula. Then the amazing yogurt dressing paired…

It’s amazing what a long weekend does for the following week- makes it fly by! I didn’t get done quite as much as I had hoped for the week but I had some quality time with my little ones as big brother and sister were off at school. Without further delay, let’s talk friday favorites….
Favorite Ways To Use Soy Milk
Hope you all had a great long weekend! We stayed local and did some fun activities with the kids- the movies, blackberry picking and the Northwest Trek, a beautiful wildlife park about an hour away from us. We all had an awesome time seeing the buffalo, bears, deer, cougar, and more and are enjoying the…
Back-to-School Snacking with NatureBox & Lunch Tips
It’s back to school week over here. My oldest started 2nd grade yesterday and my daughter started kindergarten! As much as I will miss having my daughter around, she has gotten to the point where she just wants to do stuff all day. Since her two youngest siblings take up a lot of my time…
Grilled Chicken Avocado Melts
As you’ve probably figured out by now, I am not a big red meat eater. Although I do appreciate all food, I prefer eating a lot of plant-based foods along with occasional chicken, fish and seafood. It’s not that I don’t ever buy meat, it’s just when I am craving protein I usually go to…

Friday Favorites
I feel like I say this every week but boy did this one fly by. I find myself chauffeuring my kids to and from summer school, juggling naps, making mental “to do” lists every chance I get, thinking about Christmas gifts…yes seriously. My mind is on overdrive. And we all know when that happens, very…
Stitch Fix Review #5
Hello friends! Well my lil guy Roman spent Sat/Sunday in the hospital. He was having asthma-like symptoms (coughing/wheezing/difficultly breathing) so my hubby took him to the ER on Saturday around 1:30pm.

Frozen Chocolate Banana Bites
People love to talk about the weather. It’s just part of human DNA. We also like to complain about the weather. You know we all do it. I was running today with baby E in the stroller and I checked the weather channel and it said it was 85 degrees at the time. I ran…
