If y’all will remember, a few weeks back I posted about discovering The Grocery Game, and how I was going to try to play it myself. So for the last month or so I have dutifully been clipping coupons and checking the grocery ads. Well, this week I figured that […]

So first things first today- I hopped out of bed and stepped on the scale this morning. Actually, more like crawled out of bed, but the destination was still the scale. And I am down another pound! I stepped on the scale Monday and was actually down two pounds, but […]

A few weeks ago I stumbled upon an episode of The Thirsty Traveler on the Fine Living channel. I had never seen the show before, but being a fan of Iron Chef America, I was familiar with the host, Kevin Brauch. So I watched in fascination as Kevin took me […]

Tonight I turned to an old favorite and a new star. And oh, was it good. Tonight’s entree was CL’s Maple Glazed Salmon. This was in Cooking Light magazine several years ago, and I have made it a few times, but I just don’t make it very often. This is […]

Sadly, that success is not directed at the scale this week. No change from last. However, being the eternal optimist I like to think that the reason the scale has not changed is because my body is busy converting my fat stores into muscle- which is denser and weighs more. […]

I don’t know what got that song into my head. My, I have been a little Blogger-Slacker lately. I had every intention of posting last night with a dinner report. Then dinner happened, and it really was a bummer and not blog-worthy in my opinion. Ever have one of those? […]

It’s gray and drizzly outside this morning. I feel a little bad for Andy who is out working in this today. There’s a bit of a wind, so I’m sure the wet and the wind makes for an uncomfortable situation. Okay, I’m over feeling bad for him. Maybe I’ll make […]

Happy Spring!! I love spring. My kids love spring. And I love my kids. And now that it is spring, we are officially a happy family. The kids are so thrilled to be able to play outside. Zander especially. Abigail was playing outside anyway because of three recesses a day, […]

It’s got to be at leadt 50º outside today. Zander was out the back door by 9:00 this morning, just having a blast. That left me thinking that I really should learn some yoga, and get a mat. It was so nice outside…I could just see myself enjoying the morning […]

The sun was shining, the temperature was warm, it was a great day. Andy spent the afternoon helping the neighbor build a huge jungle gym. And the kids had their own fun. Zander had his own kind of fun after a very long nap. He needed the nap, but I […]

Last night I was pleasantly suprised with dinner. We usually have the small group of restaurants we like to frequent and stick with those. I was in the mood to try something different, something new. Our number one goal is kid friendly. Another good goal is someplace where Andy can […]
