I don't know how you do it. You moms out there with multiple children enrolled in multiple sports that have multiple practices and multiple games every week. Amazing. My hat is off to you. Me? My kids can each pick one or two activities that each require one time slot per week. And, quite frankly, … Continue reading Sesame Marinated Chicken Thighs & Sesame Noodles

Baked Salmon With Soy Marinade
I consider myself a foodie, but, let me be honest, it took me a while to become a fan of salmon. Turns out, most of the times I have tried it, it was overcooked, which makes it super fishy.

So this past weekend, when the … Continue reading 3 Backyard BBQ Salads
Hungry Lady Snack Bars
So, these snack bars came about eight years ago, when I was a brand new mom to twins. I was nursing them around the clock, and if you're a mom who has nursed, you know there is nothing like nursing hunger (it's a thing!)! And if you're a mom who has nursed twins, well, that … Continue reading Hungry Lady Snack Bars
