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…
Love My Silk! Introducing Silk Almond Coconut Blend
I can’ t remember the exact year that I discovered I was lactose intolerant but it was over 15 years ago. I switched over to soy milk and cut back on a lot of dairy products. Now I can handle a lot more dairy in my diet than I used to (cheese, yogurt and cooking…
Asian Noodle Salad With Peanut Dressing
The fun thing about being in charge of the food around here is that I get to cook whatever I feel like eating! Pasta with veggies tossed in a peanut dressing. That’s what I wanted. As I mentioned before, we had company over a couple weeks ago (our good friends from Texas) and when hosting any…

The world of blogging really jumped on the energy bite/ball bandwagon. I am pretty sure you’d be hard-pressed to find a food blogger without one on their blog. And for good reason. They’re the perfect snack. I started making them over 6 years ago when I wanted snacks to have on hand while I was…
Cooking With Kids & Resurrection Cookies
The kitchen has always been the center of our home. My parent’s kitchen has always been THE place to congregate- there is a huge island and floor-to-ceiling windows that look out to their backyard.
