Last night I made lasagna for dinner. It was so incredibly easy to make and everyone loved it. Especially The Girl Who Thinks She’s A Bird. I think what I love most about lasagna, is unless you are feeding a crew of lumberjacks, you can stretch this dish into 2, maybe even three meals. Dinner, Read More >>

Yesterday I was able to spend almost the entire day in the backyard. It was pure bliss. When I woke up this morning my hands were all rough and dry from playing in the dirt. Ahhh yes, we are getting close. Pretty soon I’ll be heading out to the garden at the crack of dawn Read More >>

I’ve been trying to avoid clearing brush in the backyard for the past few weeks, so yesterday I decided to get started on my spring cleaning projects. Cleaning the deck was #1 on the list.

Last night while I was scrubbing potatoes {regular baked potatoes were on the menu}, I tossed a few extra in the oven. It’s been a while since we’ve had twice baked potatoes, so I decided to whip up a few for the Handsome Husband’s lunches this week. Not only are twice baked potatoes easy to Read More >>

Guess where I went this past weekend? THE FEED STORE {again}. I seriously need to stop going there. If 48 hours pass by and I haven’t been, I start to break out in hives. Seriously, what is my problem? Why can’t I stay away? They have Frizzle Chickens in BTW… they are so cute! My Read More >>
