I have a week of food coming your way. And I’m pretty proud of myself because despite Kyle being out of town I did a decent job of still making myself quality meals…as opposed to just half-assing it and rummaging through the fridge after putting P down. Once again, they’re all out of order. When I’m planning the week ahead, I have a vague idea of when I’ll do certain meals based on their hands-on time and my schedule, but I like the option to switch it mid-week if I don’t feel like a certain dish that day… Read more >

Last week I took photos of my whole day of eats – something I rarely do anymore – and then I just forgot about it. But they were good meals worth sharing so I’m posting them now because it’s food related and this is a food blog! It’s pretty atypical for me to have oats in the mornings nowadays, so this creation is more of an anomaly than the norm. I was in the mood for peanut butter but I used sunbutter instead because I’m still nervous about eating nuts when I’m around P. Even… Read more >

Sunday was our last (full) day in Sydney 🙁 We slept in a bit and after feeding P, drove over to Bronte for brunch. Bogey Hole was one of several cute looking cafes on the main street along the beach front. They were all pretty packed but after a short wait we were able to snag a spot outside that fit us all, including a very fussy P in his stroller. Kyle got a banana smoothie and toast with jam. I think we were all feeling a bit blah from the previous night. Laura… Read more >

Tuesday morning was our most normal sleep schedule yet! P didn’t stir until 7 am so we slept in and seemed to get on Australian time all the way. I also didn’t cough all night long. We went on a family walk after Chris and Laura left for work, just around the neighborhood. It was so nice outside we couldn’t help but soak it up. Once we got home we showered and made breakfast for the three of us. P played with the Tupperware some more because he’s obsessed, which tired him out and created… Read more >

Leading up to our trip, I tried to make the most of what we had leftover in the kitchen and freezer. The meals were mostly huge salads with grains – my effort to be cheap and use up every single perishable item in the house so nothing went to waste. As you can imagine, these weren’t the most inventive or exciting meals (also they were insanely repetitive) so I didn’t bother taking pics. I did, however, have photos of some of our dinners from the previous week that I never got around to sharing…so here… Read more >
