Chocolate Whole-Wheat Waffles

One of the less realized impacts of Chris' crazy schedule back in Wyoming was that we had moved away from cooking and eating big breakfasts together as a family.  Since we never had dinner together on Nantucket, we had developed a giant[...]

End of the SNAP Challenge

I'm catching up with my end of the year work and realized I never wrote a final post for our Food Stamps Challenge.  It also just so happens that today we were in the newspaper; the Gillette News Record ran a story about our chall[...]

SNAP Challenge Week 1

The first week of our SNAP Challenge went well.  We only spent $87.89 at the grocery store and actually have quite a few things leftover so I am going to try to delay shopping until Friday.  You can see what we bought and what the price breakd[...]

The SNAP/Food Stamps Challenge

We are, understandably, budgeting a little tighter this month and one of the first things we decided to reign in is our grocery bill.  To be honest, we haven't been doing much food budgeting since we moved here at the end of February (desp[...]

I am in love with our new kitchen. It's light and bright.  It's big and spacious.  It's the first kitchen we have ever had that actually fits every one of our appliances, kitchen tools and cooking utensils, with room to spare.[...]

I remember when she used to pretend to work on websites on a leapfrog play computer because that's what she heard me talking about. And now she has her own real computer and is super into writing - she even started a blog. 😭 They grow up way too fast.

I'm officially a dance mom. 💃

This whole competition thing is not something I did as a kid so it feels pretty foreign, but Nora is super into it and I couldn't be more proud of her. Last weekend was her first competition and because of COVID audience restrictions Chris brought her and I watched on the livestream. This weekend Vivienne and I brought her. I can't wait to see her on that stage. 🤩🤩

Bath time with ambiance a la #ERCOT. 

Luckily we have not been affected by the water issues so many others have experienced. I finally decided to bathe the little girls for the first time in over a week (with a tiny amount of water, I promise) and the power went out again. We got out a lantern and decided to just roll with it. At least it's not below 30 anymore and I managed to get the diapers washed earlier today when we thought things were back to normal.

Maybe this is the universe's way of making sure I don't stay up until 2AM working?

#snowpocalypse and poor planning on the part of the Texas Electric grid means we're experiencing a candle lit evening. So far every one is still having fun and it's not too cold in here yet so we're calling it an adventure.
