Helping Busy Moms Take Back Their Lives!
Don’t you just hate it when you know what’s for dinner, but you can’t for the life of you figure out what you’re going to eat with it? I have that same problem. I usually know what the main course is going to be, but I often don’t plan ahead the side dish. Well, today, I decided to put together this list of super easy side dishes that I can
Years ago, when I was a new wife and mother, I figured out just how easy it was to make spaghetti. This was the one meal I knew how to make that didn’t take hours in the kitchen. Boil noodles, brown meat, drain fat off of meat and pour sauce. I liked that kind of easiness! Well….I liked it, buy my husband didn’t. He was patient for a
Meet Baylee. (This was taken on a college cruise to Mexico, where they visited the Mayan ruins.) He’s 19 years old and just started his Sophomore year of college.  It’s a bittersweet time for us.  While, I love that he’s completely capable of being a grown up, I do miss having him around more often.  He’s been busy galavanting around with his college choir.  Not only did they take a cruise to
Who doesn’t like steak? Â Or steak with garlic? Â Or steak with basil and garlic? Â Yeah…this was my favorite steak recipe in the list of recipe marinades that I have recently posted. Â I prefer the taste of basil and garlic. Â My husband’s favorite was “The Best Steak Marinade“. Â The question is, how do you like your steak? Â So many people love their’s medium or medium rare. Â We are definitely a well
Do you like crock pot pork chops as much as I do? My husband wasn’t always sure he did. Once upon a time, there was a girl who married a boy. They lived many years without ever eating pork chops, because her handsome husband claimed he didn’t like them. But, after years of not having them, that brave girl decided to try them in the slow cooker to see if
I love making chicken in the slow cooker.  I like how the slow cooker makes the meat so tender that it falls apart.  Of course, on the grill, it’s pretty amazing, too. The grill gives it a different kind of taste that is absolutely delicious, too!  This lemon garlic chicken recipe is perfect for either one. This recipe is another one of those easy recipes that starts out with a marinade (like

Â Moms are busy. Â Really busy! Â I’m one of them! I’m a busy mom with 7 kids. Â I homeschool them. I run an online business. Â And, somehow I have to keep up with the chores, too. Â It seems that I
I know. It must seem weird to make a steak marinade recipe for either the grill or the slow cooker, doesn’t it? Well, I did make the Chicken Fajitas that way, too, remember? What happened is, my house got hot. Really, really hot, thanks to this 100 degree July. I wasn’t even sure if I wanted the heat from the slow cooker going on in there. But, then again,

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Wet Ones® Hand Wipes.  The opinions and text are all mine. I’m not typically the type of mom who likes to do project after project with my kids all summer.  We do like to have fun, but I tend to go for those projects and outings that don’t require lots of preparation and work. When I do take
Chicken Fajitas for the Slow Cooker or the Grill Ahhh, chicken fajitas. You know, to feed my Mexican food addiction? Yeah…. that Mexican food addiction. It gets me every time. I just had my gallbladder out and NOTHING was sitting well, until I thought of fajitas. That will work, I thought to myself. And you know what? It did! It was one of the first foods that didn’t
