As you can probably tell from my recipes on this blog, we’re not a strictly vegan household. We enjoy eating all types of food – vegan or otherwise. We also have relatives and friends who are vegan, so it’s not uncommon for me to buy vegan products. The nice folks over at Lloyd James provided…

Are you ready for the LISTERINE® Challenge?
I write a lot about foods that keep our bodies healthy, but let’s not forget how important it is to keep our mouths healthy too. I try to set a good example for my kids by brushing and rinsing twice a day, and flossing every day as well. I admit, I’m not perfect at it. Sometimes I get lazy…
Creamy Perogie Dinner
I have a weakness for perogies. To me, they are the ultimate comfort food. I try to go easy on the carbs most of the time, but when it comes to perogies, I just can’t help myself. And they make such a quick and easy dinner, so that’s a big bonus right there. If it…
Healthy Family Expo 2015 {Giveaway}
Like most of us these days, I want my family and I to live healthy and active lives while minimizing our carbon footprint, but sometimes it’s hard to know where to start, or what options are available to us. It can all be pretty overwhelming, but the good news is that there are lots of…
Easy Skillet Chicken Parmesan
While I share a lot of slow-cooker recipes on this blog, I also like to feature easy meals that you can put together quickly at the end of the day, because I know not everyone has the time or forethought to put something in the crockpot in the morning. A lot of the time, I just…
5 Ways to Make Dishwashing Less of a Chore
Dishwashing is my Never-ending Story. Do you remember that movie? Actually, scratch that. Dishes are nothing like that. They’re more like that annoying Lambchop song – what was it called? The Song that Never Ends. Yep. That’s what dishes are like…but even more annoying (if that’s possible). There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t have to…
Monterey Chicken Fajitas
It’s been a busy month so far, as we’re trying to settle back into routine after the holidays. Cole is taking guitar lessons, both boys are in skating lessons, and I’m taking yoga. It’s been hard to get out of holiday mode, and many nights I just don’t feel like spending much time in the kitchen. I want…
Kare Kare Toasted Peanut Salmon {Pulo Cuisine Giveaway}
I love salmon, especially when Tony brings it home from one of his “business” trips. I suspect these trips are more of an excuse for guys to get together and fish than to actually conduct any business, but I don’t mind as long as I get some gorgeous fresh salmon out of it. The…
What Kind of Kitchen Clean-up Rockstar are you?
It’s the start of a new year! I like to think of it as a good time to start fresh and give the house a good cleaning. Tony had some time off over the holidays, and all of us pitched in to clean the house top to bottom. We de-cluttered, getting rid of a lot of stuff…
Leftover Turkey Sloppy Joes
Now that the chaos of Christmas is over with, I just want to relax and enjoy some quick and simple meals. Luckily, there are lots of leftovers to make meals a little easier. If you had turkey for Christmas dinner, you probably have some leftover turkey that you don’t know what do to with. Well, I…
