Making breakfast dishes in casserole pans is my new favorite hobby. It makes the morning run so smoothly when there’s already food prepared. All you have to do is cut out a piece and (re)heat it in the microwave. So I can shower and Kyle can serve himself breakfast one-handed while holding P. Don’t get me wrong, Kyle’s certainly capable of cooking things for himself. It’s just nice to use teamwork when it comes to our party of three operations. We take turns sleeping, exercising, working…so why not cooking and eating. It would be… Read more >

I almost titled this post Easter “hop”penings. Too cheesy? I agree. Every once in a while I’m able to deny the puns (sorry dad). The night before Easter Sunday we had some family visitors come over to see P…and bring us dinner! Salad bar 🙂 Mine was a little like a nicoise salad with green beans, red potatoes, eggs, and a vinaigrette dressing (Girard’s light champagne), but it also had chickpeas, beets, and cucumbers as well. Best part of all was that I didn’t have to do any of the prep! I set the table… Read more >

I made a major mistake and didn’t say decaf when I ordered this (venti soy misto) before we hit the road to come home from NorCal. I was very perky! I hope P didn’t get as high as I did off the caffeine! Oops!! The rest of the road trip was similar to the first one – Kyle and I traded off driving duties and our little man slept 99% of the time. I packed up our eats again. Similar as always. Brown rice, half an avocado, & two hard boiled eggs with a nooch… Read more >

This past weekend was the first time in a couple of years that I skipped Expo West. I had a ticket and everything, but I just didn’t see the point in trying to make it work. I guess this is evidence that my priorities have shifted. I like free samples and keeping on pulse with the latest natural food trends, but I like family bonding time more. Lucky for me, my in-laws were there to scout out the scene in my absence. They reported back and then some…with tons of samples for me to review. … Read more >

Really you don’t need a slow cooker to make this. I just used mine because I wanted to have the option to leave the house…you know just in case I felt like going on a run or doing something active (hahahaha!). I felt ridiculous even as I typed that…the end of this pregnancy has turned me into a sloth. Oh how I long for the feeling of an elevated heart rate (that’s not from simply walking up a flight of stairs). I digress… This corn chowder was something I threw together with fridge scraps. … Read more >
