Are you guys watching any of the Olympics?  We have been tuning in over the weekend when we remember (while the kids are napping).  I don’t get into the Winter sports as much as Summer ones, but it’s still cool to have on in the background.  There’s still a buzz of excitement that comes with it, even if I have no more than 5% of my focus on it. Anyway, our Saturday started off in a super special way!! Family stroller strides class! In honor of Valentine’s Day, the dads got to join in our… Read more >

Leftover night! This goat brie is so good!  Creamy and mild and the perfect pair to the Jillz crackers.  We had almonds, dates and nectarine jam too…the sweet and savory contrast. Kyle had rye wasa crackers. Since dinner was so random and snacky I had a bunch of chocolate for dessert. And then wound up feeling a little sick…oops.  Fail. I’m going to try to get my sweet tooth back under control by taking a little hiatus from desserts.  Going forward. I did stroller strides on Friday morning and skipped breakfast because my stomach was… Read more >

My mantra. Although Kyle wishes I could just eat without putting so much pressure on myself to have THE BEST meal every single time I feed myself.  I do too, if I’m being honest, but that’s just one of my quirks!  I want my food to be the most amazing delicious awesomeness and no amount of discussion is going to shake that from my system.  I know it’s insane but it is what it is. ANYWAY. Hey Urban Remedy!  It’s been a while!  I grabbed The Vegan Caesar on Friday when we were at WF… Read more >

I’m sorry for showing this salad AGAIN, but I can’t stop eating it.  I made it without avo this time, which was definitely not as good, but compensated by eating tripe the amount of candied walnuts.  I had to save the barely ripe avocados for dinner that night though. For dinner I made use of the rest of the crab meat I had from this dinner.  Wow that was a long time ago.  Hence the need to use the crab. I got these spring roll wrappers at Nugget the day before but when I opened… Read more >

After a busy week away for Kyle, he was all about staying home this weekend and I was totally on board.  The weather was AMAZING, too.  It felt like Spring (or early Summer!!?) and I was loving it.  So much time in the backyard getting my Vitamin D doses.  Happy happy hippie. Happy happy kids. I had chocolate buckwheat waffles for breakfast while Kyle took the kids to Home Depot for the monthly craft.  I’ve talked about that program on the blog before.  Having Saturday mornings to myself has become an unspoken thing that Kyle tries… Read more >
