Remember my Creamy French Toast Pancakes recipe from a few weeks back? Well, my husband is in love with it. He makes them 4-5 times a week, maybe more. Most days he follows the recipe as I wrote it but some days he gets all wild and crazy and creates new variations. Hence the reason he is a better cook. I stick with the safe bet and he likes to kick it up a notch, ala Emeril. If he got to set something on fire while cooking these they would probably be all he ever made. Anyway, this week he … [Read more...]

TGIF – NatureBox, Baby Books, and Fifty Shades
TGIF! Have a great weekend and Mother's Day all! I am hoping to kickstart my weekend this morning with a viewing of Dark Shadows at the theater and then watching the Central East Regional CrossFit games on ESPN3 since some of the guys/gals from my gym are competing.

We have been invited to a picnic and there is an … [Read more...]

While I have lots of love for those too it was the Diva Cup that ended up being the real game changer. After the second month using it I knew that … [Read more...]
Summer Co-Ops – What Are They?
This is the time of year when you are bombarded with all kinds of local summer camp offerings. Summer time isn't vacation time for many parents and you either have to find ways to keep kids occupied or maybe you just want to occasionally. No parent wants to hear the dreaded "Mom, I'm bored!" from their kids. I am one of those mean moms that tells my kids to get creative and use their imagination if they are bored. I don't feel as though it is my job to entertain them. Yet, I do want to … [Read more...]
Mountain Rose Herbs Epicurean Organic Seasonings
Attn: Giveaway at the end of this post! A few weeks back Mountain Rose Herbs sent me a few of their Epicurean Organic Seasonings and the husband and I were excited to get cooking with them! I have been a fan of the store for a very long time and have bought their bulk herbs and essential oils in the past. They are one of my top sources for quality herbal ingredients for natural remedies. I never even thought about buying spices and cooking herbs there, not sure why exactly. Probably because I … [Read more...]
