In case you're not sure what it is, Movember is the month-long facial hair growing campaign to raise funds and awareness for mens health related issues. On avereage, … [Read more...]
What’s FRESH in the Kitchen?
I love to cook but planning and grocery shopping is another story. I'm not a big planner. My personality (and you can ask anybody that really knows me) is that I'm somewhat impulsive. Those home cooks that can plan out a week's worth of meals? I completely admire you. Because although I may think … [Read more...]
Halloween Aftermath
I read somewhere recently that experts say sugar doesn’t make kids hyper.

I'm not in costume yet because it's too early in the day, plus it's really, really hard to carve pumpkins in drag, but will I be riding around town scooter-ninja-style wearing this get-up today while I pick up the last of the accoutrements? You bet your sweet … [Read more...]
The Makings of a Costume
Getting the whole costume-thing together in time for Halloween is sometimes tricky business. My young daughter is only five, and I know two things for certain - 1) if the costume is decided too early in advance, there will likely be a change of heart within days of the 31st, especially once she … [Read more...]

As a busy working mom, I often find that the dinnertime crunch is, shall we say, overwhelming. And that's grossly understating it.
