Surviving solo

Surviving is what I did a year ago…I’m much more on top of it now.  Thriving!  Solo!  We miss Kyle a lot while he’s gone, but I haven’t missed a workout, shower, or blow dry even though it’s just me. I haven’t been cooking up fancy dinners, but I’ve been eating exactly what I want. Thanks to my prep, our breakfasts were taken care of for several days.  The kids were also super sick so they didn’t have appetites, which made the pancakes last even longer. As far as managing a work out schedule, here’s how… Read more >

What I Ate

This is another oldie (from last week). I only know that because it has four dinner servings.  I promise it’s more interesting than the things we’ve been eating this week.  Well, maybe.  I like eating salads on repeat, but it doesn’t make for great blog fodder.  I would prefer to share stuff that you may want to make. Like this grain free bread.  Totally worth the cookbook purchase. Polished off the heel of the loaf with some Earth Balance. Melty butter is so amaze. So was this salad.  It was in a serving bowl because it… Read more >

Sabra spreads

This isn’t a sponsored post..we are loving these Sabra spreads.  The cracked pepper and sea salt is my favorite.  The only problem is that the last 1/3 of the tube is hard to get out.  So I’ve been making salad dressings in the bottle with that portion.  Win win. I also make Kyle breakfast bakes with them all the time.  Here’s a quinoa casserole type thing. I finally used up the last of our garden’s tomatoes.  In DECEMBER!  So insane.  Since it was all for Kyle I used the garlic hummus and parmesan. To make it… Read more >

On this day of love

I’m going to write about my little BIG guy’s birthday, which was this past Sunday, because my husband is out of town and so we aren’t doing anything. OMG he is FOUR!  What the what!? We did a few special things to celebrate, but nothing was too extravagant.  I’ll start with Saturday. We had a leisurely morning at home and made our way to farmer’s market after breakfast. I made a massive version of this banana oat bake because I wanted to set myself up with breakfasts for the whole week since Kyle was out… Read more >

WWA (again)

Can I just start using the WWA abbrev for “what we ate”?  Seems an easy swap.  Continuing the catch up posts… I sliced up a few pieces of this grain free bread with Earth Balance for breakfast time. More pancakes for my minis. They ate sooooo slowly, I baked chocolate mini muffins for P’s classmates while they finished up. There are 18 in his class, but I made a bunch of extras to freeze and have on hand for future birthday parties.  He picked out chocolate cupcakes for his birthday treat, but blueberry cake for his… Read more >
