HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!   We carved our pumpkin friday night and while daddy was carving, Cody and I separated all the seeds so we could bake and eat them.

Stuffed Portabella Mushrooms

by Jennie October 7, 2011

portabella mushroom

I have been using my freezer meals that I made before Grayson was born for most of our dinners. It has helped a TON because I don’t really have to think about dinner. Our other nights, when I want to switch it up, I make easy stuff…. spaghetti, BLT’s, leftovers, or order out. Last night […]

Meal Planning

by Jennie May 11, 2011

With being almost 7 months preggers I can’t do everything I want to do…. UNFORTUNATELY! One thing I […]

Save Money on the Learning Tower

by Jennie April 4, 2011

When we first started the blog mama Tricia of “Take 10 with Tricia“, sent us info on this contraption called The Learning Tower! I liked the concept, but thought it was a little pricey.

It’s all about the Eggs

by Jennie February 1, 2011

I have some very exciting news…..!! My friend, mama Jeanne, has chickens at her house so that she can feed her family with their very own eggs.

Spike Magic Spices

by Jennie December 21, 2010

Until recently, we had no idea what kind of “junk ingredients” are in the store bought ready made spice packets! (It reads something like a science experiment!) We have both had friends who have told us about all the additives (MSG, Silica, the list goes on…) and other nasties that are in those spice packets […]

Turkey Gumbo… Jambalaya?!

by Jennie November 30, 2010

We have another episode of “What did Jennie really make for dinner”??!!! Last week I talked about wanting to use my leftover turkey to make a gumbo and it turned out more like a soup- still yummy so not a huge deal! Well, we brought the turkey for our “second thanksgiving” also and so I […]
