This month’s Recipe Redux theme, in honor of Thanksgiving, is a food memory for which we are thankful and then a healthy “redo” of that recipe. This was pretty easy for me to come up with an idea as one memory and food jumps out at me this time of year. My family has always made potato rolls […]

I hope you all had a magical Christmas. I know we did. We had a wonderful day with family and watching C and E play. C is beginning to grasp the meaning, beyond Santa. I did not do as much with our advent calendar this year as I had hoped but next year I will […]

Disclosure: I received a free bottle of Pompeian Grapeseed Oil to test. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Cooking spray is one of my must-haves in the kitchen.

Happy Monday! A bit of a late start today. Playing lots of catch up after taking off most of last week to be with my family. We had a wonderful and fairly laid back Thanksgiving. I started the morning off with a chilly 5K. My husband and children were supposed to do it with me, […]

Happy Thanksgiving! I still can’t believe it is Thanksgiving this week. Where has this year gone? I know I say it all too often and it is rather cliche, but I need time to S-L-O-W D-O-W-N! I am thankful to live close by family so that my children regularly see all of their aunts, […]

May 21, 2013 by 19 Comments
This month’s Recipe Redux theme is all about showers, or brunch parties. It is that time of year for baby showers, bridal showers, graduation parties, etc. My first thought was that my Breakfast Pizza with Cauliflower Crust would have been perfect! Instead, I came up with a dish that would be great for a buffet style brunch, Broccoli […]
