I have a confession to make. I’m a sucker for the blue box kind of mac and cheese. I’m not going to lie. It’s easy, it’s good and I go for it. BUT I’ve been crazily pinning all kinds of Crock Pot Mac & Cheese recipes. The only problem is that I can only leave them in the crock pot for a few hours before the noodles turn to mush so obviously a weekday meal of this is out the {Read More}
Trying to get supper ready lately has been a real challenge. I can’t plop Miss K in a swing and leave her while she looks at her surroundings. Instead I have to quick run around while trying not to step on her as she crawls under my feet. Then tries to pull herself up on my leg. I know these moments will end and I don’t want to wish away her childhood, but boy it’s challenging. I’ve resorted to {Read More}
I’m sitting in front of the tv half watching the Super Bowl half writing this post. So what did you think of the big game? Favorite commercial? Mine has got to be the Budweiser with the Clydesdale running towards his former owner. It brought back a lot of memories for this girl. Good ‘ol growing up on the farm memories. Back in my younger days I was in 4-H and showed sheep. If you don’t know what either of those things {Read More}
Does anyone else feel like death? I do. Please let me whine for a few seconds. My throat feels like it’s on fire. I cough and then cough, and cough, and cough until I feel like my lung might actually come out. All thanks to the hubby who brought the sickness to me. Ugh. Well at least the body aches are gone. Now for not feeling like a fire breathing dragon and sounding like a man. I’m sure from the {Read More}
I recently started attempting to feed Miss K cereal. I’ve been dragging my feet majorly, but last weekend I made up my mind this is the weekend to do it. Oh my goodness I didn’t know what I was in for at all! My mom once told me, or maybe she told me multiple times because I remember her telling me, “Julie I almost broke down in tears when I tried to feed your older brother the first times.” Oh {Read More}
Do you have those foods that you know you want to make but you never really get there? This is one of them for me. I have bookmarked, cut out, highlighted etc. None of this ever helped me actually make BBQ Pulled Pork. I knew it couldn’t be that hard but all the recipes I found had all sorts of rubs, homemade sauce, etc. I knew I wanted simple recipe that I could throw in the crock-pot and go to {Read More}
Another Monday down. As the alarm went off this morning Jason’s first words were “I hate Mondays.” My thoughts were….ya I just hate every morning I have to get out of bed at a set time. After a run at the gym and getting ready things weren’t looking so aweful and I had a crazy busy day at work which definetely helped the time fly by and get this Monday over with. You might wonder what I’m doing to round {Read More}
It’s another Saturday and I just got done with work. After a quick stop at the grocery store to grab some stuff for throwing together a supper tonight I’m relaxing on the couch, watching Gossip Girl and writing a blog posting. I have every intention of making a “good” supper that isn’t out of the box tonight also. Sometimes life just gets going and night after night we are eating some “pre-fab” meal so sometimes I try to get out of that {Read More}
Well it’s been a while since I’ve updated this. No I haven’t forgot to cook supper for my husband I’ve just been to busy to post anything. And now I bet you are wondering what I’ve been up to. Honestly I’m going to say life. Life just happens. And it gets busy, and crazy and all of a sudden it’s the next month! I know many of you are shaking your head and agreeing to this. I suppose I could {Read More}
It’s brisk and blustery out and another Minnesota night. I survived Thanksgiving and am on family overload so am thinking that it would be a great idea to take a break from that till oh Christmastime! Speaking of Christmas it is right around the corner. I started pulling out cookie and treat recipes for Christmas tonight and promise to start sharing those with you too. This recipe I’m sharing with you tonight is a favorite from college. Yes that’s right…I {Read More}
