"Gather the crumbs of happiness and they will make you a loaf of contentment."~ Unknown
Guess what, my friends. Sometimes even I mess up a recipe. Sometimes quite tragically. Enter the Cinnamon Roll Muffins that I had foolishly attempted at 10pm last night, while I was what I like to refer to as being “stupid tired.” You know that tired which overcomes you at 8pm when you’re a Mother of […]

I’ve been having a very difficult time recently, being alone everyday, particularly as a Mom. Before I had my Baby Girl, I loved being alone & spending more time at home than anywhere else. I was content with my husband and my books and my favorite tv shows. It was ME, then. The NOW me, […]

Chili. My husband is the KING of all things chili! Both sides of our Family request his chili dish, whenever the weather starts to bring in some chill, without fail. But since I’m the one cooking dinner dishes, more often than not now, I decided that it was high time to create my own kind […]

Oh, Casserole! Oh, Casserole! How I love me some casserole! Especially when Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Because you know what that means? Leftovers. For days. Of everything. Which makes me ridiculously giddy. Turkey, people! And mashed potatoes! Oh, and maybe some lovely, flakey cheesecake, too! Seriously. What more could you ask for? So […]

Huzzah! November is here and so is a rather beautiful Fall! With gold and green leaves, crisp nights and stunning moons! An absolute favorite season of mine! Despite the sad fact that I’m no longer able to withstand wearing some of my favorite fuzzy sweaters. Menopause. No fun. But even though my Fall wardrobe is […]

Hallelujah! It’s FINALLY starting to feel a bit like Fall, here in California! Bout time! It actually rained a bit, two days ago and I found myself standing in my Daughter’s room, trying to figure out what outfit to dress her in. A cute jumper? Jeans with a short sleeved shirt? Or jeans with a […]
