Even in summer I love my slow cooker. I am still trying to use it at least 2-3 days a week to avoid having to think too much about dinner. I met several people at The Disney Social Media Moms Conference in Chicago last week who when I told them about my blog gave me…

Grilled Marinated Chicken
One of the best ways I have found to save money (I love my Disney trips and need to save for them) is to try and buy all my staple grocery products when they are on sale. Most sales happen every 4-6 weeks so when I find items such as chicken thighs or chicken drumsticks…
Pork Carnitas Tacos with Pickled Onions
Back from two evenings off of making dinner. The conference I attended on Monday and Tuesday was fabulous. I can’t wait to share more of it in the coming days. But, I still had to cook dinner last night. When I explained my blog to people at the conference most asked me how I had…
Chicago Style Hot Dogs
I guess this is the perfect meal since I am heading today to the Disney Social Media Moms – On the Road even in Chicago today. I am so excited yet feeling like a guppy in a huge ocean. I LOVE Disney and will be spending this summer combining this blog with my Earning My…
Herbed Pork Roast with Glaze
Today is the first day since school let out that we have all been able to sleep in. No early morning doctor appointments, dentist appointments or getting my daughter to the school for her trip to Washington DC. Yes, I actually put my daughter on a plane with some of her 8th grade peers for…
Garlic Chicken Pesto Pizza
I did not get a chance to post yesterday. My partner had a simple procedure but it took much longer and was a bit more involved than we originally thought. So, what was meant to be a simple 2-3 hour thing turned into a half day. Then it was physical therapy for my daughter, dance…
Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Cheeseburgers
First full week of summer vacation begins and I am tired! I thought this was going to get easier. In a few weeks it will. My son asked why all our appointments are in the two weeks after school is out. He is right. I have been holding off as much as possible until school…
Italian Sausage Lasagna Casserole
I tried to get this post finished on Friday before we left for the Detroit Feis. I didn’t make it. Between picking my daughter up at a slumber party, physical therapy for her, a grocery store run and bagging all the food before we left at 1:00 pm I didn’t quite make my deadline to…
Oven Roasted Corn
My daughter looked at dinner the other night and said, “You can tell it’s late Spring or early Summer.” When I asked what she meant she said our dinner was the clue. All vegetables we were eating were not frozen or from a can. She was right. I love getting as many fresh fruits and…
Buffalo Style Mozzarella Pork Chops
I finally forced my daughter to take a few nights off from dance class. We have been making the hour trip for the past 5 nights and I needed a couple nights off. She also needed to get some homework done as we are now 9 school days from the end of the school year….
Cheese Tortellini and Ravioli in Tomato Cream Sauce
Yes, that does say Cheese Tortellini AND Ravioli. I bet you can all guess what happened. I remember I had bought two packages of tortellini back a few months ago when they were on sale because I try to only buy items when they are on sale. What I didn’t remember is making another dinner…
Slow Cooker Chicken Cheesesteak
I have been reading quite a few blogs lately and some of them scare me a bit. I am a bad mom. I didn’t know it before I read all these blogs. I let my children eat candy. I don’t buy organic vegetables. I don’t check their homework every night. I may be negligent because…
