Chinese Hot and Sour Soup
Shortly after DT and I were dating I was introduced to the world of Chinese Hot and Sour Soup. I had seen it before at Chinese restaurants but always thought it looks weird and wasn’t quite sure what was floating around in it. Well it was DT favorite soup and he got it every time […]
Menu Plan Monday
So last weeks “challenge” was a total bust. We went to visit family and friends out-of-town and totally blew our budget on gas and eating out. But I will try to start my challenge, of $250 on groceries, entertainment, etc this week. I don’t think we have any plans and hopefully I will be able […]
Playing in the rain
Sometimes I think I must be the best mom in the world. See its been raining everyday for the past week, not that I am complaining we need it desperately. But the boys have been lacking in their outside time, so I figured they could play in the rain. I knew they would make a […]
Meet the Newlyweds Derek and Sarah
I am pleased to introduce Derek and Sarah. Sarah has a fabulous and sexy blog called La Jeune Marié. In which she shares her passion for fashion, weddings, and lingerie. She has so much style it makes me yearn for a passion in fashion (which I admittedly lack). She also is a neighbor of mine […]

Caramel Coconut Pie
My grandmother “Granny” recently gave me a recipe for a favorite pie of her’s. It was perfect because I needed two deserts for different occasions and this recipe make 2 pies. I might not have ever eaten it before, but seriously how could a pie with cream cheese, caramel and coconut be bad. This did […]

8 years ago today
I can’t believe it has been 8 years ago today when our country had the single most tragic terrorism attack. 8 years ago just seems like yesterday, I was 19 and attending our local junior college, getting ready to go to class when I was watching the news that 1 plane flew into the World […]
