because my friends and family told me to start a blog
Child and Husband are currently playing "Airport" (each room in the house is a different airport and they're traveling great distances to different restaurants) and I've been told very clearly by a short person that I'm not allowed to play. Thanks kid, guess I'll go write a blog entry. Triscuit thin, goat cheese, condiment, prosciutto.... Continue Reading →
No seriously, I did. My French onion soup recipe is a labor of love and swearing and praying to the onion gods. When I was done, I tasted it and went "ummmm NOPE." It completely lacked the depth of flavor that I'm used to and was a tad bitter. Bitter is no problem, add some... Continue Reading →
It's Mother's Day Eve, and I'd like to send out a warm 'I f-in love you, man' to my husband, Rob. Robert. Roberto. Mister Man. You know, that guy. Why? Well for starters, he tells me if I have boogers. He stays out of my way when I get the 'oh my god I have... Continue Reading →
So it's been just under a year. Let's chalk it up to writer's block. But I have good news you guys, I remembered my password on the first try. "Cooking" these days is usually mac and cheese, plain noodles with butter, yogurt, fresh fruit, or cheesy eggs. I am on this really strict diet where... Continue Reading →

The kiddo was napping and the husband was outside doing lumberjack things and I was suddenly starving that VERY INSTANT and could not wait more than 3 minutes for a meal. Hangry... Continue Reading →

Husband went skiing, Toddler and I went out to brunch with a very close friend, played in the snow, and ate. A lot. So much food. Mom greeted us at 10pm after the drive... Continue Reading →
Now that's a happy-to-see-you breakfast. Cuz there's a face in there. See it? Two eggy eyes, a toast nose, and a frying pan smile. Yeah, now you see it. Youuuu're wellllcoooommmeeee. That's whale for "you're welcome". Finding Dory, anyone? Ok moving on. I'm noticing that I seem to write most on snow days. Newsflash: New... Continue Reading →
So I made this. It was F-ing fan-tastic. How fantastic was it? My husband ate beans. My, "I don't like beans. No I won't try a bite without making a sour face, or faking a smile, or pretending to choke" anti-bean husband ate the beans. All of them. Toddler also ate the beans. Only 5... Continue Reading →
Yesterday was a “I’m just gonna throw stuff in a slow cooker and hope for the best” day. I had beef in the freezer and I needed the space for something else. “Cool, we’re having beef of some kind for dinner… where did I put my coffee cup?” I’m lazy and don’t want to make... Continue Reading →
