Coping with Morning Sickness, Take Three

These are some things that I’ve learned along the way, tips that my girlfriends and I have picked up during our many collective pregnancies. I hope some of these work for you!

Egg, Sausage and Sun-Dried Tomato Casserole

This is the best breakfast casserole I’ve ever had! This recipe is from a friend, which she modified to make some healthier changes. It takes a little extra time, but it’s well worth it – and perfect if you’re hosting brunch or bringing a dish to a breakfast.

7 Steps To Sustainable Healthy Eating Habits

It’s difficult to eat well and be healthier overall if you are disorganized, misinformed or simply don’t know what you don’t know. Here are 7 things you can do to get you well on your way towards establishing healthy eating habits that are sustainable for the long run.

Truffles – Simple and Delicious

For Christmas this year, I decided to try my skills at making truffles. I’ve always enjoyed baking cookies, bars and cakes, so I hoped that this wouldn’t be too much of a challenge. Well, not only was it easy – but the truffles turned out incredibly well!

What’s It Worth?

My job may not be glamorous, but I’m doing what I have always wanted to do: devote my days to raising our kids and enjoying their childhood.

Fruit Pizza

This is a dessert that is easy to make, impressive, and best of all – yummy! This is great for showers, lunches, pot lucks, or just having friends over.

Snowing Outside? Make Snow Ice Cream!

My friend Susan passed these two recipes along to me, and I thought I’d share them with you. The first is from Paula Deen, and the second is one of her family recipes. So if it’s snowing where you are right now where you are, be sure and go outside and scoop some of it up!

Declutter Your Way To A Happy Home

In the seemingly never ending quest to reduce clutter and simplify our lives it’s just hard to let go sometimes.

A few key questions and a clear vision of where you want to be can certainly help keep you going in the right direction.

Pasta Salad

This pasta salad recipe is delicious, and one of the best pasta salads I’ve tasted yet. My friends and family ask me to make this when we have pot lucks, and it’s so simple and delicious that I never turn them down. This is great for a light dish at home, or a side to bring to an event.

Toys – Less Can Be More

Now that Christmas has settled I am going through and organizing the kids’ playroom and bedroom. I have always known that they have a lot of stuff, but I am realizing more and more just how much they have. There are a lot of toys! Bins were overflowing, cubes were stuffed, and shelves were filled up. My goal recently was to go through their toys, and declutter everything I could get away with.
