26 Crock-Pot freezer meals in three hours

I'm headed back to work in mid September, which is equal parts exciting and terrifying.

One of the sure signs I'm ready for fall … Continue reading Vegetarian Comfort Food: Shepherd’s Pie

Falling in love with Tofu

July 19, 2017July 19, 2017Leave a comment

Are you a tofu hater? It's OK if you are, I used to be one too. I thought it was super weird, really bland, and honestly I was just confused about what to do with it.  I didn't mind seeing the odd piece floating around in my miso soup, but otherwise, it wasn't my thing. … Continue reading Falling in love with Tofu

To say the weather in our part of the world has been depressing lately would be a total understatement.  With the exception of Wednesday, the forecast for the entire week has featured grey clouds, torrential rain, and thunderstorms.  Also depressing?

10 ways to repurpose unused baby food

May 31, 2017May 31, 20171 Comment

Last weekend, our son decided he'd had enough of puréed food, spoons, and all parental involvement in his noshing process. He began to flat out refuse all food with the exception of breastmilk. Admittedly, I experienced a brief moment of momxiety. "He's on a hunger strike", I said, on my tenth attempt to sneak a … Continue reading 10 ways to repurpose unused baby food

Recently, I was able to catch up with a dear friend over lattes and sammies at my local cafe...alone. This was a rare outing for me.

Hey Momma!

It's no secret that momming ain't easy. Mix attempts to keep your crew happy, healthy, and entertained with sleep deprivation and minimal 'me time', and you've got yourself one crazy balancing act.

All mommas are looking for ways to bring simplicity, coziness, and inspiration into our lives so that we can find more time for the things that matter most: sweet little cuddles, milk-breathed grins, and...maybe even the occasional shower.
