I finished this book a month or so ago, but I find myself thinking about the storyline over and over again. If you’ve ever read any books by Elizabeth Peters, like Crocodile on the Sandbank (Amelia Peabody #1), you may find this one a little bit similar. Set in the same time period – the …

It’s time for another update on my Project Life pages… A little background This year, I’m doing my Project Life album digitally.

Revisiting one of my all-time favorite recipes today. If you haven’t tried it before, you should! Springtime makes most of us instinctively want to clear things out – out with the old, in with the new. Out with the clutter, out with the dark tones of winter, out with the heavier foods and in with …
I stumbled across this recipe on Pinterest and have made this coffee cake several times now – with rave reviews every single time I make it. Even my kids love it. While the original recipe was really good by itself, I thought I’d share the recipe the way I make it, too. Here you go …
I mentioned a while ago that I had received Flour Water Salt Yeast by Ken Forkish as a Christmas gift and that it had started me on a quest to make great artisan bread at home. You can read my adventures with the first few recipes I tried in that book here. Not long after …

I’m three years out from having had gastric bypass surgery (you can read that story here) and loving my life as I’ve gotten healthy and …
We passed a major milestone this past weekend. We went out on a date for the first time ever without getting a sitter for the girls. (well, not counting the date nights we were at Mom’s house and the girls stayed with her.) It was one of those spur-of-the-moment things. SuperMan wanted to go to … Continue reading »

FOUR MORE DAYS ONLY FOUR. MORE. DAYS. I can hardly wait!! Four more days until the girls are out of school for the summer. It’s almost like we’re “on hold” right now, waiting for the 24th to arrive. Even though the next week or two after that won’t exactly be slowing down, there’s that milestone … Continue reading »
I found this recipe on Pinterest (imagine that!?!) and decided that it sounded way too good to not try it out. Amish Cinnamon Bread was what the recipe was called, but then she talked about how it was an alternative recipe to traditional Amish cinnamon bread which, apparently takes a long time to make. I … Continue reading »
Happy Day-After-Mother’s-Day everyone! I hope those of you who are mothers (by nature or by heart) had a terrific day and were spoiled and pampered by your families. We had a nice day here. SuperMan and the girls gave me some beautiful plants ~ a fern and hibiscus for my back deck ~ and some … Continue reading »
Today was Little Bit’s Field Day at school. Since SuperMan had the week off of work, he went to watch her ~ about which she was VERY excited. She’s really missed her Daddy while he was working those long hours the past month. She was really looking forward to having her Daddy with her today … Continue reading »
Currently, I’m Cooking a batch of shredded beef burritos in the crock pot. They smell SO good right now. Listening to SuperMan shampooing the carpets for me. I’m such a lucky girl to have a man who spoils me so. Nibbling on some almonds and dried cranberries – my new favorite snack. Counting down the … Continue reading »
