Winter has been half-hearted this year, with mild temperatures that I won’t come close to complaining about. Instead of playing outside in snow suits and galoshes, we’ve been in jeans and barefeet. But it doesn’t stop us from coming in looking for soup to curl up with. Here are some amazing looking soups that I’m [...]
For those of you who have followed along since the beginning of this blog, through my pregnancy and first year with MoxiLady, you know that meal planning is a challenge for me. I don’t enjoy it, and often the meal plans come late or not at all as I stall to organize my thoughts and [...]
Just about every year, we go to my inlaws for Thanksgiving. Usually, we have very little to do with the menu, but this year it will be more “potluck” style. We are bringing the sides, which is exciting and terrifying all at once. On one hand, it gives us the freedom to make sides that [...]
While I wait for my pre-baby brain to return (erm, going on 6 years since before my first pregnancy now…I’m still waiting), I’ve seriously got to make the most of every effort. When it comes to food, if I don’t have a good stash of pre-made things in the freezer, I’m not likely to have [...]
It’s been a bit quiet on the blogging front here this week because the real life front has been a bit of a madhouse. We are remodeling bathrooms and doing some touch ups and repairs to get our house on the market…oh, and parenting three small children and working. It’s messy and loud and [...]
It’s that time again…my favorite. Meal planning. The time when I alternate staring at the laptop and cookbooks and decide what I’m going to aspire to cook. It’s almost as good as the time(s) when I realize I’ve completely forgotten to check it and have to wing it for dinner anyway. What’s super crazy about [...]
Looking to beat the heat and minimize cooking time? Here is a collection of some of my favorite recipes from The Vegetarian Mother’s Cookbook that I’ve noted as a quick meal- Quick Nutritional Yeast Rice or Cheesy Rice Veggie Dogs with Sauerkraut Baked Potato Lunch Mushroom Stroganoff Omelettes Tempeh Reuben Easy Pasta Lunch Bean Quesadillas Griddle Biscuits [...]
It’s a bit unnerving to be so free with the meal plan this week. We aren’t eliminating any allergies. We aren’t counting down a pregnancy. We aren’t counting through the postpartum period. We just are. We’re nursing and we’re playing and we are. I do want to start highlighting the meals that MoxiLady is able [...]
Tell me to go to bed. Seriously. Tomorrow, we are going to attempt to start getting up to walk and eat a good breakfast before Hubby goes to work. At 7:45. That means, we have to be up by..6ish? I’m pretty excited about breakfast. I’m not so excited about the time. We’ll see how it [...]
Eating raw went about as I expected…not well. It’s not the fault of the diet; it’s all about my motivation and commitment. This week is going to be an extended trial, of sorts. The few times I have had legumes, they have not seemed to affect me. Citrus and Wheat have, though, so they will [...]
