Mia Mariu cosmetics

When it comes to makeup, I've been stuck in the dark ages.  Though I'm not as bad as my mom (she still wears blue eye shadow - sorry Mom but you do), I have worn the same color palate of eye shadows forever.  When mineral makeup first came out years ago, I tried the loose powder foundation and loved it. But for whatever reason, I never tried any other forms mineral cosmetics until now. And you know what? I've been missing out! When the opportunity to try Mia Mariu mineral cosmetics was … [Read more...]

Perfect Pumpkin Pancakes

Perfect Pumpkin Pancakes

Growing up, pancakes were a treat.  I remember on the weekends my mom would whip out her square griddle and make pancakes for my brothers and me. Sometimes she would get fancy and make them in the shape of the first letters in our names, sometimes they would be simple circles.  Either way, it was a treat and a breakfast food that we all loved.  Now that I have a daughter, I find myself making pancakes at least twice a month.  Typically on a Saturday I'll whip out my electric griddle and make … [Read more...]

Daddy Daughter Day Out At The Park

September 23, 2012 By 8 Comments
day at the park

I admit it.  I'm completely jealous of the time my husband gets to spend with my daughter in our new city.  There is so much for them to see and so many places to go.  Every week we get an email that tells us what is going on in the community and every weekend, we have so many choices and not enough time.  But what I've known all along is that all the museums, zoos, shows and restaurants can't take the place of a simple morning spent at the park.  Just last week as I was banging my head against … [Read more...]

Chicago Cutlery DesignPro Chef Knife

Without a doubt, one of the keys to be a successful cook in the kitchen is having the proper tools! I remember the first time I made peanut butter toffee turtle cookies.  Because I didn't have any pancake mix on hand, I decided to make a substitute recipe I found online. Well, one of the the things they recommended you do was use a pastry blender to work the shortening into the dry mix.  Not having one on hand, I decided to use two butter knives.  Let's just say it took me a LOT longer than I … [Read more...]

Progresso_Recipe_Starters_logo

The other night during dinner my husband informed me he wasn't a huge fan of minestrone soup.  I'm pretty sure I shot him a death stare.  Especially since I had just made the soup for dinner.  As I was getting ready to tell him what I really thought of his comment (because its never wise to upset the cook), he redeemed himself by saying he wasn't a huge fan of minestrone soup until that night.  My glare instantly turned into a smirk and let him in on my secret: meals are even better with … [Read more...]
