The Kidlets like Kidlet-Sized food. It’s just a fact of our life. Sliders, meatloaf cupcakes and Stuffed Teddy Bear Biscuits are favorites around here. If I make it small or put it in a cupcake liner, they are ALL OVER IT. And … they love hot dogs. Any. Kind. Of. Hot. Dog. So, last month, I […]

Mommy Sleeps In: Make-Ahead School Lunches
Last week, I took a new approach to my daily bento lunch prep … I made it all ahead of time. Way, way, way ahead of time. No more getting up early each morning to fashion lunches. Nope, not for me. I had the majority of each lunch made Sunday night. My mornings were about […]
Meal Maker Challenge GIVEAWAY – 3 Winners!
We’ve nearly wrapped up this year’s H-E-B and Con Agra Meal Maker Challenge. Four weeks. Four recipes. Each with an ingredient list of 7 items (or less) and a time limit of 30 minutes. Whew! It took a little more creative brainstorming than in years past, but I did it. Easy Stuffed Bell Peppers […]
Making A Farm
(Secondary Title: The Making of a Crazy Chicken Lady) Oh, my. Life, y’all. Life is nuts. Just nuts. In October we moved to the country — a 6 acre plot we call Faith Walk Farms. It was here that we brought our children and chickens and dreamed of building an apiary in order to […]
Whole30 Meal Plan (week 2)
Y’all. I done lost my MIND this past week. Lost it. I adopted a second dog … an 8-week old PUPPY. Yeah — I have no idea what I was thinking. Six chicken, three children and now TWO dogs? And not just any dog … but a 3-pound chihuaha-poodle mix that needs constant care and […]
Prepping For The Week Ahead, Week 3
Yesterday was Sunday. The day for church and afternoon naps …. oh, wait. Naps are for my Husband and the Kidlets. This Mama? She spends her afternoon at the grocery store and in the kitchen, prepping make ahead meals and packing school lunches (yes, ahead of time). And — first and foremost — washing produce. […]
Prepping For the Week Ahead: How I Make It Work
When I shared my meal plan last week, I had a few questions here and on Facebook, asking how I actually handled it all — the shopping and then the prep/cooking. (and, yes, I realize it is NOT Monday … but getting back into the “Working Mom” routine is wearing me out … so humor […]
Saving Money In the Kitchen
There has never been a time, in my married life, when I have NOT used my slow-cooker, but I have never appreciated it more since the birth of Barney Kneeknuckles. This simple appliance has kept my family fed and Mommy SANE. I love it, love it, love it. LOVE IT. Not only is it a […]
A Smorgasboard of Bento Lunch Ideas
The Little Lady has been in school for nearly a month now and has eaten a Bento lunch each school-day. (Stuffed Biscuit Bento with steamed edemame, carrots, yogurt dip, and grapes) Or, eaten most of a Bento lunch. It seems she’s a bit social at lunch time and doesn’t always get everything consumed — but, […]
Having a Plan Makes Me Feel All Warm and Snuggly Inside
Is that a sign I’m a little more anal left-brained than I care to admit? This past weekend, instead of enjoying the first weekend of College Football . . . or enjoying one last weekend of summer fun . . . I spent over two hours planning meals (allllll of them — not just the […]
