When one kid licks the plate and the others ask for leftovers, you officially have a winning recipe. THere aren’t too many casseroles that 100% of the family loves, but this is one for sure! I honestly was surprised at the overwhelmingly positive response for this fairly easy Chicken Tetrazzini. Leaving the skin and bones [...]

Our household goal is to have at least 3 family dinner meals per week. I would like more, but John’s work schedule keeps him away several evenings. Football tossed a bit of a kink into the family time and into my home-cooked meals. We were still able to catch a couple of meals, but they [...]

1. Maggie moved out of our room. This is HUGE. HUGE. HUGE. We finally came up with what we hope is a workable solution. Liam and Dorothy are bunking together, half of the room is now his, and the other half hers. Train table, cars, trucks and Little People now have places next to Barbie, [...]

Why I can’t lose weight
Posted in Favorite Recipes, My blog stuff on February 17, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I know why I can’t lose weight. I eat the right foods at meals and snacks, but I also “secretly” eat other things…like the half bag of M&M’s I just poured down my throat. I’ve tried keeping stuff like that out of the house, but I’ll make cookies, cakes, biscuits…whatever. I think my problem with [...]
