Last weekend I helped my husband organize the garage. A little bit. You could say I was supervising. Or spying. Or snooping. Basically, I was being nosey and wanted to see what he decided to throw out. Thankfully, he didn't get rid of my knitting machine. But what was more thankful than that and downright exciting was that I found my popover pan! What? How? When did someone think it was a good idea to put a popover pan in the garage? Grr... I'm looking at you, husband! To make up for lost ... continue reading...

Fiesta Friday #344
My first day back to work was rough. Physically and emotionally. My body was conditioned to take it slow during the stay-at-home period, so the normal rushed activities typical of my working mornings resulted in, what I would imagine, moments of hot flashes.

Nutritious ones ... continue reading...

In an effort to encourage my family to eat more fruits, I sometimes resort to making them a big fruit platter, like this one below. I was hoping that it would entice them to snack off that fruit platter, instead of reaching into the cookie jar. It seems like a good idea, doesn't it? I myself can easily polish off half of that platter. How can you resist a platter of fresh fruits?! But unfortunately, my plan does not always work. Maybe if I had hidden other snacks in the house, or hollowed ... continue reading...
