However, with holidays, birthdays, girl scouts, soccer world cups, soccer parties, soccer ending, school programs and travel… my video is not yet finished. They gave us…
My family came to visit this weekend for Princess’ birthday party and like always I worried about how clean my house wa wanting it to look it’s best for them, as if a clean house would prove that I’m a good mom, that I have it all under control. I remember as a child watching…
I love Turkey. Honestly, at Thanksgiving there are never enough leftovers for me, so when I got an e-mail from Kikkoman offering me a gift card to buy a Turkey and some Kikkoman products (YUM) for a pre-Thanksgiving Turkey Brining experiment… I was in for two reasons. 1) I’ve never Brined a Turkey before and…

One bite and you’ll be thanking me and your friends and family will…
Today would be Maddie’s 2nd Birthday. Today, many around the Blogosphere are writing Birthday posts to honor her and to show love and support for Heather and Mike. Maddie was a little girl with sparkling eyes, dancing curls and an infectious laugh. She charmed and enchanted everyone who met her, and thousands who only met…
I love Thanksgiving Dinner. The Turkey (there’s NEVER enough leftovers) my Aunt Cyndie’s super delicious marshmallow topped sweet potatoes, the creamy, subtly spicy, savory, rich, deliciously amazing jalapeno corn pudding and the sour cream apple pie. I am not traditionally a fan of apple pies, the cloying gooey sweetness of the filling and the traditionally…
