About Me

I am a stay at home mom with four awesome kids that absolutely fascinate me. I have a wonderful husband who is my best friend. A day just isn't right without him in it. There isn't anything I won't try. And there isn't enough time for all the projects on my list. Today is my favorite day and as Abe Lincoln said, "It isn't the years in your life that count, its the life in your years". I love that!

Making pizza

The kids have so much fun making their own pizzas on Friday nights. We usually have dough in the fridge for the week and use the last of it on Friday for our pizza dough.

We make our own sauce from the Roma’s we canned from last years CSA adventure. Then an hour or so before [...]

Woo Hoo!  We had pancakes this morning on our new griddle. Sure beats the frying pan! (Thanks Sara!) We were able to get them all done before the bacon was even done. Usually the hubby is crabby by the time they’re done cause it took so long to make ‘em that he and everyone else [...]
