There is a lot written about “balance”. Work-life balance, finding balance, losing balance, pursuing balance . . . it almost makes your eyes glaze over. Personally, I never connected with the balance metaphor. For one thing, when is the last time you actually lost your balance (excepting yoga class when you are trying to stand […]
Turkey Tetrazzini
I’ve mentioned before that I like to cook dinners that take more time on the weekends. One of those dinners is turkey dinner. Around Christmas, when turkeys were still a very good price, I bought a 16lb frozen turkey and threw it in the freezer for cooking at a later date. Last week I cooked […]
Let It Go
Disclaimer: this is not going to be about the popular song. I haven’t even seen the movie Frozen, so I can’t even use the song as a cute example. This week I start prepping to have my family over for Spring Brunch – also known as Easter Breakfast (except that I’m not religious, so it […]
The Bin Dump – 3/28/15
I have to apologize for my “vacation” last week. I hadn’t planned on taking a break, but I missed posting Monday Musing, and it sort of spiraled from there. I guess you can call it my Spring Break. Everyone needs one now and again. This weekend Chuck and I are going on a mini […]
Cleaning Calendar for Working Mom
So, by now you know enough about me to know that cleaning – picking up – whatever, is not high on my list of personal achievements (if not, see this week’s Monday Musing). The other thing you have learned is that I’m all about the smart, quick, easy – well, “life hacks” that work well in […]
Creamy Chicken Fajita Pasta
I’m always on the lookout for new recipes to use chicken. Chicken is quick-cooking, versital, and we like it. I stumbled upon a recipe in Food.com for Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta (before it had 2k+ reviews). It was good, but I wanted to add more veggies to it and tweak it to our liking. So, in […]
I quit!
About once every 4-6 weeks I quit. My other job, that is, of being mother, wife, cook, cleaner, driver, accountant, doctor, and laundress. Usually this is precipitated by a one to two-hour cleaning spree where I have picked up and put away a hundred belongings of other members of my household. I scurry from room […]
Spaghetti and Meatballs
When I posted about my meal plan, I mentioned that sometimes I have a meal that isn’t something you can make on a weeknight, but you make it on Sunday night to eat on Monday or sometime during the week. Spaghetti and meatballs is one of those meals. I think I originally put it on […]
The Bin Dump – 3/8/15
I hate daylight saving time. I hate losing my hour. I never recover until the clocks go back in October. Ok, so I got that off my chest. Everyone who knows me knows that I hate the time change, so nothing new. I should get on some committee or lobby to have it abolished. Would […]
