Pilot Light

Dear Reader Friends, Almost as soon as I started my writing website, I started writing for New Hampshire Magazine, and took on a bunch of interesting articles that I couldn’t say no to (be sure to check them out in the next few issues). But they all had deadlines in like, the next week. So I […]

Tuscan Swordfish with Capers, Tomatoes and Onions

Hi Friends! Happy Lent, Happy Whole30, Happy Wednesday, or whatever you may be celebrating today. I know I meal planned on my last post that I would start eating Whole30 after my wine party, but I honestly got so excited about all the Whole30 foods that I just went ahead and started it today even […]

Week Eats with Whole Parenting

Hi all – I am linking up with the lovely Nell at Whole Parenting. She hosts a weekly meal plan called Week Eats which is super smart and always yummy. Nell is basically the Renaissance Women because she was an attorney but now she makes the cutest baby clothes, plays with her kids in their […]

Banana Chocolate Chip Bread

Hi Foodie Friends – Happy Almost Valentine’s Day! In case you were wondering if all this snow here in New Hampshire is making us carb load, here’s your answer: Chocolate Chip Banana Bread! So so good. My kids love helping me make this recipe, since they can really help mash the bananas and stir in the chocolate chips. […]

Yummy Crock Pot Pot Roast

Anyone else have a white flag of surrender waving re: cabin fever? I feel like I just got done with Motherhood Olympics, a contest where your only goal is survival, and your hurdles include a husband on a weeklong business trip across the country, a snow storm with 2 snow days from school and a […]

Healthy Peanut Butter Rice Crispy Treats

Ok, I guess ‘healthy’ is relative. I just mean something that isn’t filled with preservatives and processed things and white sugars. Since my kids get enough of that everywhere. I wanted to have something for them after school that they would eat but wouldn’t be filled with sugar. It was a bonus that I liked them […]

A Tale Of Two Women

I was in between the bath and bedtime shuffle tonight when the kids were occupied for a nanosecond or two, so I checked my Instagram account. I noticed a woman who just started to follow me, because the scarf around her head stood out. Her profile said she was a momma from Boston, and that she enjoyed […]

How I Meal Plan

Lately, so many people in real life and on social media have been throwing out the meal planning angst – I should do it, why don’t I do it? It is so hard! I have been meaning to post some of the tricks I have learned 8 years into this feeding kids business, as well as growing up […]

Chicken Curry In A Hurry

Well aren’t you just a big bowl of sunshine. Seriously, it is. I love curry so much, and it is ridiculously easy. This one uses Rotisserie chicken + coconut milk + curry powder but you can easily use cubed chicken and stir fry veggies. The first time I made it I added the carrots and […]

On Resistance

I’ve been reading The War of Art by Steven Pressfield.  It’s a good thing, too, because lately everything has felt like a battle. My almost two year old. Writing. Getting out the door on time. Cluttered corners. Pressfield, who also wrote The Legend of Bagger Vance and The Authentic Swing, is such a great encourager of […]
