Vegetarian Polenta Casserole (Freezer Meal Recipe)

I'm in a local moms group and one of our newest activities is a freezer meal swap.  Last week, we had our first swap and it has been awesome to have ready-made homemade dinners waiting in my freezer.  I loved that I was able[...]

Cashew Chili (and Baked Sweet Potatoes)

Rainy fall weather means I can pull out my stock pot and cook up giant batches of soups and stews without looking like a crazy person who would happily eat a bowl of piping hot whatever all year-round, no matter the temperature.  Creamy an[...]

Asparagus Stir-fry Over Saffron Rice

One of my absolute favorite things about spring is asparagus.  It's one of those vegetables that I used to hate as a kid because I only ever had it mushy out of a can...once I discovered the real thing, I was hooked.  Of cour[...]

Portobello-Stuffed Poblanos

Every once in awhile, I decide to break out of our $65 per week grocery routine and try something new and "fancy" (which really just means requiring more than one pot).  Usually, this corresponds with the arrival of my latest issue of The V[...]

Carrot-Cheddar Skillet Cakes

You'd think that being home all day would give me plenty of time to cook up an intricate, multi-dish dinner.  Not so.  When I'm chasing after a two year old all day, there is surprisingly little time left for meal planning, let alo[...]

Southwestern Israeli Couscous Salad

Apparently, last fall, I made a bean and couscous salad for a potluck, and Miss E's mama loved it.  When she was planning Miss E's birthday party, she asked me, would I mind making it again?  No, I don't mind, I said, but one problem...as[...]

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. 😂

Visiting my sweet tiny niece. I had the honor of being the doula at her birth and helping her come into the world. Her parents did amazingly (especially her mama) and everyone is excited to have another little girl in the family.
