meals this week

Last weeks meals were good.   I browned 2 pounds of hamburger with some veggies and started adding tomato sauce and spices.  In the end I had 4 quarts of sauce.  We used one and froze the rest so that we can have a spaghetti-sauce related meal once a week with a little less work on my [...]

what’s cooking?

Aside from swim meets, family get-togethers, and school I have been cooking meals and sleeping off a cold.  Well, we all have been dealing with the cold.  Chamomile steam treatments help keep my head clear, the tea goes down nice with a bit of honey to soothe my throat, and lots of broth based soups taste [...]

You guessed it.  Still so busy.

soccer tournaments in 40 degree weather with wind chills near freezing (Liz’s team did great)
first swim meet (Jane finally logged a time in butterfly, big smile there!)
The twins are learning so much, too much some days as they are managing to get into some mischief.  If they keep up at [...]

not an authority

I am not an authority on much anything, but I am always willing to share what I do know.   Denise over at There Is Always Room for One More asked a few questions about ordering a side of beef for the first time.  I’ve been there a couple times and offered to share what I know.  [...]

way too long

I don’t know why, but I just am not thinking to come here and write.  Well, I do know why:

vacation- went south for a week and enjoyed a bit of time away from the daily to-do
homeschool- for every day of school the girls do, I have at least one hours worth of administrative time that [...]

lost my write

I feel bad for any readers still hanging around.  I forget my camera all the time so I have no photos to dictate a direction.  I feel like I have nothing to say…those who know me in real life are probably shocked.
Running: With the exception of missing two runs last week, I am still at [...]

still here

Sorry for the unannounced blog vacation.  Lots to do, too much really, but it can’t be helped. 
I was able to spend some time with my sister before she heads out to Vegas for her internship with Cirque Du Soleil.  Wish I could go out and visit her while she is there as well, though finances [...]

Papaw’s day

Just a quick shout out to my dad to say Happy Birthday…he’s the most dedicated reader I have and his Birthday always seems to get sandwiched in between all kinds of stuff.

I hope you enjoy your time golfing this weekend!  An extra round and a son-in-law to clobber  drive the cart can’t be too bad of [...]

I was a bit fearful to start week three.  Those three minute straight runs scared me.  I am a self-proclaimed sissy…especially when it comes to sports activities and sweating.
It wasn’t so bad, though, so now I have moved on to dreading week four.  The three minute runs actually feel pretty good and when I am [...]

how did that happen?

In their Christmas stockings at Grandma’s this year, the girls found some bath foam.  You know the kind.  It’s a bit like hair mousse, but soap and for kids to play with.  We have had the darndest time trying to get the things to work.  Then the other day it was as if they just [...]
