 Before Fiona was born we cooked and froze a whole lot of food to have for the post-partum period. It was one of the best ideas ever. I highly recommend it to anyone who is pregnant if you have a deep freeze. We filled ours to the brim (the picture below was before we [...]

 This is a recipe my friend Debbie shared with me, and it is so delicious. We have had it numerous times since she shared it, so I thought I would post it here so it will be easier to find (rather than searching through the depths of my Facebook messages). 2 [...]

 My mom made me a little cookbook with all my favorite recipes when I moved away from home. The other day Meredith had it out and was looking at it, and she brought it over to me opened to the recipe for Nanaimo Bars. Of course, then I couldn’t get them [...]

 I spent the morning baking apple cinnamon muffins and oatmeal apple-raspberry crisp, both to freeze. While searching for my apple crisp recipe I realized I’ve never shared it here and it’s one of my favorites, so here it is! No pictures again, since I haven’t actually baked it this time. I’ve substituted the brown [...]

 We just tried this for the first time last night. It was so quick and easy and the house smelled delicious while it was baking! The original recipe is from Sandi Richard’s Cooking for the Rushed: Healthy Family cookbook. As an added bonus, any leftover potatoes make for delicious hash browns the next morning. [...]

 We were out yesterday to meet a good friend’s new puppy when all of a sudden Meredith decided she wanted to come home and make cookies. Then when we got home she changed her mind and wanted hot chocolate instead and seemed to forget about the cookies.
We had a rough night. [...]

 This last month we’ve really gone off the meal plan bandwagon. What with Kris’ surgery, lots of travel, Meredith teething, and just general laziness lack of motivation, it hasn’t been happening. But, I feel like we haven’t been offereing Meredith enough variety and she’s getting to that age where access to a variety of [...]

 This was supper last night. It was the first time making it, and it was really delicious. Definitely a keeper recipe that we all enjoyed and that will be made again. The recipe as is is vegan and gluten-free. We added boneless, skinless chicken thighs that we cubed and marinated, and then grilled and [...]
