Kids in the Kitchen: Randomness
This week I failed. I didn't take a single picture of the boys working in the kitchen. Colin helped make cookies for James' last day of school one day. He helped make tea on another. James learned that cooking IS science and now he wants to help more by cooking entire meals. I know this is a good thing, but it scares me! ;) ... Read More about Kids in the Kitchen: Randomness

Pico de Gallo #Recipe
My sister-in-law makes this super-duper-awesome-amazing Pico de Gallo (or so I'm told - I don't actually eat it!). So when we had our last family 'reunion' a few years ago, I took note of the ingredients, watched her make it and thought I could handle it. I was wrong - HORRIBLY wrong. I attempted to make it after we came home but ... Read More about Pico de Gallo #Recipe
Wordless Wednesday
A few weeks ago, I posted some information about a (local) 5k - the Get Up and Glow! I talked my husband (and MOM!) into doing it with the boys and I. It was SO.MUCH.FUN! And apparently, I walk at a much faster pace than my husband expected! All but the last one are phone photos - sorry in advance! If you ... Read More about Wordless Wednesday
Oven Roasted Corn #Recipe
When C and I were at the grocery store earlier this week, he said he wanted corn. And when it's 5 for $1, who am I to deny him!? I love corn on the cob - roasted, boiled, it doesn't matter. Just the thought of the sweet crispness of corn makes me drool! However, my husband is not the world's best grill master (sorry honey!) so we ... Read More about Oven Roasted Corn #Recipe

Kids in the Kitchen: Slow Cooker Potatoes
Every week, as a family, we make a meal plan. Sometimes the kids get what they want (French Toast, mostly) but I have veto power and can nix anything. This week I added Slow Cooker Potatoes to the menu. The kids weren't happy but it's a quick, easy and cheap dinner. To start, you need potatoes (I buy Russet) and foil. Colin ...
