Okay, so skip today’s post if you’re looking for something food related, or profound. Today I needed to ramble.Well, this has been bothering me for a whole day now, and I think I just need to get my thoughts written down and share them. I got a job offer yesterday. […]

The Sevens Meme
Lol! I’ve been tagged for a meme by Patti at Adventures in Food and Wine. Amazingly, this was a tough list to complete. And as for tagging…I think most everyone has been tagged by now, but I will tag my sister Rachel, as well as Ana at Kitchen Space. If […]
A Great Day with some Great News
So today started early. After dropping off Abigail at school, Zander and I headed out to do the weekly grocery shopping. We were back home by about 9:30 in the morning, which was good, since I had a little more cleaning to do before heading to the airport. Then around […]
Fun with Eric Carle
So today I woke up feeling like my head had been shoved through a meat grinder. Another cold has rammed head first into me, and it is terribly frustrating. The worst part was that today I was supposed to accompany Abigail on a field trip to see Eric Carle stories […]
An Empty The Fridge Sort of Day
Well, we were a bit busy today. Today Abigail was home since the schools had a day off today. And she had a friend over for the day. Yikes. It’s been a little noisy here. Zander had a short nap, I suspect due to the noise, so he is most […]
Here we come a waffling…
This morning I was woken up by my two sunshines. Zander had an armful of Thomas trains and wanted to show me. Abigail had her cookbook in hand and said “Mommy, I want to make these.” And pointed to a picture of waffles. Okay, give me a few minutes. By […]
The Plague
I swear that we cannot get healthy here. It seems like I cannot remember a time when someone in our house was not sick with something. It’s getting a little annoying. And it’s also heartbreaking when the ones most affected are the little ones. Today it’s poor Abigail. She came […]
Good Intentions
My day started out rather nice. While Andy took Abigail to school today, I determined that today would be the day to make some homemade honey-wheat bread, and try a new soup. A quick peruse through my to-try list showed me that I had the fixings for Navy Bean Soup […]
It’s Intoxicating!
Today in the mail I recieved a package. As soon as I saw the familiar blue and white label, my heart started beating a little faster. I snatched that package and brought it into the house. Carefully I opened the other mail I had received, quickly recycling the unimportant, and […]
Returning to a Favorite
Today we returned to one of Andy’s favorite dishes. This recipe is one of the ones that really hooked me onto Cooking Light magazine. I had tried the magazine years ago when I was just out of high school and interested slightly in cooking. It really was nice, but for […]
More…
So you think you know someone very well, and then WHAM! They surprise you with something unexpected. Andy and I have been together for about 8 years, and today for the first time I find out that Chicken Parmesan is his favorite food. His ultimate comfort food. And I had […]
Southern Comfort Food
One thing I learned last spring on our travels to Florida, is that Southerners REALLY know their breakfast food. Particularily in Alabama. We loved Alabama. In a few years we are planning a trip back to spend more time in that beautiful state. And whenever I make myself my favorite […]
