It is Spring Break here and we are trying to make the most of it. Lots of Spring cleaning going on even though it feels like February instead of April. I want to get all the windows open but not quite time yet. So, we are washing walls, baseboards and cleaning out all the cupboards…
Creamy Firecracker Chicken Pasta
We headed out to see Zootopia this weekend. What a great movie! All four of us laughed and thought it was a perfectly timed movie to address many of the “Us vs. Them” ideas that seem so prevalent in society today. I actually teared up in the end when Judy Hopps (the bunny main character)…
Keurig Unboxing and Review
When the weather looks like this over the weekend I am looking to bake, cook and drinking coffee and hot cocoa to stay warm. Is this really April? **I received these products free from @Influenster and Keurig in exchange for my honest review of the products. All thoughts and opinions are my own. So, am…

Italian Sausage Stuffed Peppers
When you need dinner on the table quickly having frozen dinners in your freezer can really help make the dinner process go much smoother. Casseroles, stuffed peppers, soups and lasagnas freeze very well. Make a double batch of dinners either on a weekend or when you have extra time to make dinner one evening and…
Lettuce Wrapped Tacos
I love this picture. I can tell we are in Spring and Summer mode for dinners as we start to look for more vegetables and less meat in our meals. I went to the grocery store yesterday to pick up the lettuce and a pepper for dinner and everything looked so good. I was sticking…
Riverdance: Dinner Out
First, I would like to thank you all for the very kind words and encouragement after yesterday’s post. I LOVE physical therapy and my good days are starting to out number my bad days. Onwards and upwards! I am going to get through this and be stronger on the other side! One of my daughter’s…
Lemon Garlic Salmon and Walking Again
As I started this year I pledged to myself to try to present the truest picture possible about our life. Everyone has struggles and things to get through and as we read these blogs sometimes we forget that we are reading about real people and their lives. Sometimes things look so fairy tale like that…
Cleaning Out the Freezer: Meals from the Bottom of the Freezer
This has been a busy month. Lots of great things but just quite a bit of cash going out at once. I spent a week in hotels with my daughter for St. Patrick’s Day. Then this past weekend we headed to Madison, WI to celebrate the 50th birthday of a dear friend. We all arrived…
Country Crock – Make It Your Own, Mix-Ins Cookies
I received this product free from Influenster in exchange for my unbiased review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I remember Country Crock from when I was a kid. We had big giant brown tubs of it in the refrigerator and ate it on toast and bread every day. About 10 – 15 years…
Slow Cooker Corned Beef Stew
Using up my frozen Corned Beef leftovers from St. Patrick’s Day I made a simple stew in the slow cooker. It was nice to come home to the smell of corned beef filing the house and knowing with a nice loaf of crusty bread and some butter dinner would be ready! Verdict: Corned beef is…
Easy Barbecue Chicken Nachos
“Some days are like that, even in Australia,” is a sentence that is said around our house on bad days. It is from the book Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by Judith Viorst. Everything goes wrong for Alexander all day long. Maybe things are better in Australia? At the very…
