Seriously, how can you beat $1.69 a pound for a Bell and Evans Whole Chicken?? As I broke apart this juicy chicken for Baby Bell’s food (she has no idea how lucky she is), I knew I had to write about this. Yes, you can find bargains at Whole Foods! I’m almost scared, as I love…
The Ocean
I try with all my might to never take it for granted. Collectively, we express this regularly. We are so lucky to live by the beach. So many of my favorite memories happened on or near the ocean; Hours soaking up the sun splashing in the water with my brothers as kids, my first job,…
Everything Changes
Some days it hits me and some days I hardly think of it at all. I DON’T HAVE A JOB. I kinda wish I could say I wasn’t challenged or wasn’t happy anymore and I gave my notice, it was my decision. But, that’s not how it went down. My company was acquired (about a…
Steak Night
We like to squeeze every last drop out of the time we have together. As probably mentioned before, or as at least as you most certainly could surmise, we make eating an event because often that is what time we have together. C got out several hours early on Saturday so we were so looking…
Useful tips for a Relaxed Thanksgiving Holiday
Thanksgiving Prep This year, due to work schedules, we are not having Thanksgiving. Typically speaking, C works about a half-day and then we’d have about 12 people or so over for the festivities. So, the fact that it is Thanksgiving Eve and I only have a couple things on my list for tonight, is…
From Couch to “pounding the pavement”
You know how sometimes things “just stick”? There doesn’t seem to be a rhyme or reason for it at that particular time, but sometimes it just does. I had always said I didn’t “get” running. I could see it to run and get the ball or to run to tackle someone or to run…
TURNING BITS AND PIECES OF LEFTOVERS IN TO DINNER
When you are short on time, sometimes you just throw everything together and hope for the best! Thankfully we had some ingredients already prepped from Friday’s pizza dinner for Tuesday because after watering the mums, a Dentist appointment, and a run….it was already almost 8:00pm and I hadn’t even thought about dinner.
Friday Pizza Night
We were probably overdue for a Pizza Friday! Pretty much our favorite! We tend to get a little carried away. But, it is a great way for us to create when we have time to cook together. We brainstorm ideas for pizza and usually zero in on 3 to make. Thankfully we don’t eat them…
DOG FOOD BEGINNING
How did we start cooking for the dogs again? I don’t remember exactly how long ago it was, maybe about 7 years or so, but time is funny so it could have been 4 or 10 too, who knows! But there was a recall on one of the dog foods (dry, as they were also…
Taco Tuesday – Greek Style
TACO TUESDAY WITH A GREEK SPIN Another quick weeknight meal, primarily thanks to Trader Joe’s and a little thought. This one was very little cooking as well, so it was nice and easy! I wanted to use the whole-wheat tortillas and didn’t feel like doing tofu and veggies which is a common go-to taco or…
