I should really be careful what I wish for. I have never claimed to be one of those happy, glowing pregnant woman and with the diagnosis of gestational diabetes this pregnancy was not all it was cracked up to be so I was eagerly awaiting, and quite certain, that this pregnancy would end earlier than the usual 40 [...]

Working on my Pizza Three Ways post: two down, one to go – stay tuned. Finally (FINALLY) made kale chips – yum but I over salted a bit. No one else in the family liked them which won’t stop me from making them again. I think they’ll eventually come around. So inspired was I that [...]

That was a close one. I have this really old kitchen timer that’s kind of dirty and a little beat up. You know the kind where you have to turn the dial past 30 minutes before setting the prescribed time? It’s old school but I’ve had it forever and I love it. But, I think [...]
Studying, Pickahling Style.

As far as I’m concerned I’m done with my formal education. What I’m into studying now doesn’t have a whole lot to do with my career choice and that’s totally ok. These days studying for me consists of looking through recipe books I own or recipes online to see if or how a recipe can be [...]

We had our first “crop” harvest from the container garden Sofia and I started weeks ago! Kale, Swiss Chard and Spinach all these healthy perky looking leaves ready to be picked (or at least looked that way) rather than the limp, lifeless stuff you buy at the grocery store. And all we did was add water! Then [...]

As I mentioned in yesterday’s post I’m trying to get the most bang for my buck when it comes to eating for lots of different reasons but it was all instigated most recently here.
Updates, Delays, Technical Difficulties and Plant Carnage.

The past couple of weeks have been tough raising the awesomeness that is Sofia. By the time she’s put to bed I find myself looking around wondering just what was accomplished that day. Things have gotten done though, slowly and piecemeal, sometimes not to the expectation I had hoped but I’m (still) learning that in [...]
Lovin’

You know that smell? The one that wafts into the house when you open the windows early in the morning and it’s just starting to rain? That it’s warm enough to open the windows in the morning. The imagination of a three year old. That our cats “play”/tolerate Sofia and her imagination. That the “chocolate [...]
Plate Full of Awesome.

Have you ever eaten something and you just knew it was good for you. It looked pretty good, definitely tasted good, you didn’t feel all gross and stuffed afterwards? No? Well, you should, really, this should be a goal: to feel better at the end of a meal if not down right happy. I did [...]
Attention Spans (ok, maybe just mine) are getting Shorter.

I love reading. I used to read all the time. Then I had a kid and since then I just can’t seem to finish a book, which is so unlike the old me. I can read magazines, blog posts, newsletters, short stories but that’s about all I have in me.
