Well, it’s that time of year again. We made it through Christmas & New Year’s (including our anniversary), and it’s time to recommit to getting myself in some kind of shape. Other than round. For the first time ever, I am not dieting. I have spent too much time with negative body image and I [...]

The next day, Saturday, was the party to end all parties. We were blessed to have family and friends from all over SoCal join us for an open house to celebrate birthdays and our housewarming. It was really heartwarming to have so many friends make the trek to our new home! I cooked. A LOT. [...]

Heaven

If you ever wondered what heaven looks like, I’m showing you now. Heaven looks like a toasted marshmallow dipped in a chocolate fountain. (The addition of graham cracker crumbs after the dipping is a bliss beyond comprehension.) (Full credit for the invention of such a creation goes to my sister, Lisa.)

Bento Fun

I have been having a blast making Cara’s snacks for preschool. I haven’t been as creative as the lunch above yet, but I’m working on it! (I’ve seen this photo on Flickr and Photobucket and have no idea who it actually belongs to for credit, so if someone knows, please let me know!) Anyhow, Cara [...]

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have had some coconut flour sitting in my pantry for awhile. I don’t do a lot of baking, but I was dying to bake something with my leftover pumpkin over the weekend. This is what we came up with, modified from another recipe I found on the ‘net. I discovered that I needed more [...]

A Lazy Christmas

I’m almost embarassed to admit that I’ve only stepped outside of our apartment once today, and at 9:00 pm I’m still in my pajamas. From yesterday. But I’m not really embarassed. I had a great time getting up early with the girls and watching them open all of their presents. I made a big breakfast [...]

Playing Catch-up

I know I haven’t blogged in a week. This is mostly due to a disaster with my laptop that involved Auntie Boss and a bottle of J Pinot Noir that she bought for me last March. She didn’t do it. I was the bonehead. Luckily, the computer is completely fine other than my inability to [...]

Friday was the annual Holiday Walk on Montana Avenue, so the girls and I went out, along with Auntie Boss, Grandma, and Grandaddy. I am delighted to use these [free] opportunities to capture the girls with Santa, because the only solo photo I have of either of them with Santa is one of Cara at [...]

Cookies!

The girls and I have been MIA the last few days as we’ve been cooking, addressing & writing Christmas cards, shopping, wrapping, and hosting some friends for dinner. Today we’re going to attempt another Christmas tradition: cookies! I’m sure this project will last several days, but I promise at least one picture of Cara covered [...]
