I used to be super awesome at meal planning. I would do 2 weeks at a time and I pretty much never wasted a single CSA veggie. Risking utter modesty, I rocked. For the last few months, I…haven’t rocked. Without … Read More
 Remember that little Pinterest Challenge? The one that ended earlier this week when I had THREE pins I hadn’t yet done? Pretty sure 50% is a failing grade however you look at it. (It’s amazing what having the entire … Read More

Yesterday, we had a little Easter egg hunt with our playgroup. Aside from needing to have the egg hunt indoors since it was freezing and windy and BAH willwinterneverleave, it was adorable watching all the kiddies run around finding eggs. … Read More
We took a little trip to my beloved Philly this past weekend. Oh, how that city makes my heart sing. And N. Philly makes N sing. And dance with umbrellas. Even with the miserable rainy/snowy/haily/sleety/slushy/gucky/whycan’twinterjustbeOVER weather we had (resulting in … Read More
We don’t do a ton of pasta around these parts, mostly because I hate cooking lunch so we generally like to have enough for leftovers for the 3 of us, and a pound of pasta doesn’t usually cut it. But … Read More
As part of the Pinterest Challenge, I wanted to make this beet salad. What really caught my fancy, though, was the pairing of beets and goat cheese. For some reason, I really wanted to add “clementimes” to it, and it … Read More

Like many, I’m still reeling from the knowledge of Friday’s events. Like many, it’s tricky to put into words exactly how I’m feeling, exactly how much I want to hold my little ones close and never let go. Like many, … Read More
For the last few months, I…haven’t rocked. Without the push of CSA veggies or farmers’ markets shoving heaps of kale in my fridge, I’ve become a little lackadaisical in planning and executing meals. And although I do love eating orange winter vegetables for 23 nights in a row…right, I don’t.
Not to mention that with caring for 2 kids, one of whom actually requires his own food allotment (children being counted for food planning?? I was shocked, too), my time/desire for preparing meals (especially ones that don’t feed all of us for dinner and preferably the next day’s lunch) has dropped. (This meals that since baby c was born, I have made homemade pasta…zero times. Too much effort for a rather insubstantial outcome.)
