Valentine's Day is one of my favorite holidays since becoming a mom. I love to surprise them on the days up to Valentine's Day with fun crafts, little treats and things they just don't expect.

I adapted this project … [Read more...]
Chicken pot is comforting, filling and a fantastic way to use up leftover buts of chicken and bags of partially used frozen vegetables. This pot pie is completely from scratch and is an absolute snap to make. I leave potatoes out of my pot pie, opting instead to serve it over a bad of creamy mashed potatoes and a drizzling of chicken gravy. The cooked pies freeze so well that you might … [Read more...]

Over the last few months we have been switching out our bulbs from the incandescent to energy efficient bulbs. I wrote 2 months ago that we all needed to start doing this because things were about to change! I told you about the legislative changes coming in January. January is now here! I can’t believe it! But that means that changes are now in effect. What does that mean for you and … [Read more...]

Once, way back when, I was the queen of Home Ec. I rocked it and I loved it more than anything. I had as many periods of food related class as possible. Could this have been an indicator of my food blogging days to come? Hmm...thoughts to ponder!
