Grateful for walks with the kids and gettting some fresh air. It was pretty fresh as the wind was picking up and blowing in a snowstorm. Thusly…it was a short walk. Grateful for a hubby that buys me a new […]
Here we have another attempt to get the children to eat veggies. This has become quite the battle, but I’m not giving up! I love chicken satay, so I thought I would turn it into a stir fry. The marinades […]
Grateful that we could have a nice Valentine’s Day dinner, though it was just at home. I made pan seared tuna with a balsamic/white wine glaze, creamy baked hashbrowns, a salad with citris vinaigrette, brie and strawberries and an olive/antipasti […]
When I saw this dress in the CWD Kids magazine, I thought it would be a great summer dress for her. She even agreed! It is a mix of knit and woven, so I have a placket on the back. […]
So…well, you know we have a freezer full of salmon. My salmon recipes needed a bit of a refurb lately, so this was something I tried from my fish recipe book. This is my new favorite way of eating salmon, […]

I did end up getting a few more dresses sewn up, so I will post my other outfit that I made for Anya last week. No pictures of her in it, yet. I’m sure I will get some this summer, […]
I am grateful for foggy mornings. We don’t have them very often over here, and they seem so…mysterious. I am grateful that I am done with The Hunger Games series. They were definitely thought-provoking, and I enjoyed them, but the […]
I actually did get some sewing in this week, amazingly enough. Of course, that meant that I did not work out much at all because I can’t sew in the evening AND work out. Non possible! Here are the fruits […]
I found these two recipes on Pinterest. They are yummy, so I would suggest making them.. Lemon chicken (I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts, though) Gnocci mac & cheese (I didn’t make it exactly the same, but that recipe sounds pretty good, […]
