Helping Busy Moms Take Back Their Lives!
We have a large family with 7 awesome and ornery kids. They eat A LOT! Because of this, we always like to keep fresh produce in the house.

Once upon a time, there was a girl, “happily” doing her dishes, when she noticed a puddle on her floor at her feet. “Oh no”, she exclaimed, “Where is all that water coming from?” The water, was coming from under the sink. The pipes had come apart, allowing water to escape and drip onto the cabinet below. That girl was me and this has happened to me several times over

Are you getting sick of the snow yet? We actually haven’t gotten much this year, here in Kansas, but I hear most of the rest of the United States did. This past week, we had our 2nd snow of the “snowy season”. We had a few inches on the ground and it promptly melted by the next day. It just happened to be the day that my daughter had to
I am a big fan of chicken parmesan! I don’t know why it never dawned on me to make it in my slow cooker …. until recently, that is. I think it’s because I felt like it should be fried. I mean, normally it is, right? Or at least breaded and baked. Well, this time, I breaded it and I slow cooked it and the chicken had a great texture
6 of the Most Organized Pantries I’ve Ever Seen! My pantry is a disaster. It has a habit of getting out of control quickly. We really need to remodel and that would help me to be a little more organized! So, while contemplating doing that project, I thought I’d do some research to see what ideas I could have for my very own pantry. Sometimes,
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Renew Life Formulas. All opinions are 100% mine. As you know, I’m in the beginning of a long term weight loss journey. I have about 75 pounds I need to lose. It’s definitely not a fun reality, but it is a reality all the same! Recently, I was asked to sample the Renew Life Skinny Gut Ultimate Shakes, to
I’m trying to eat healthier, so I’m always on the look out for anything with vegetables and sweet potatoes. This one, I originally assembled backwards and it created mushy sweet potatoes that were over boiled on the bottom. I’ve fixed that, by moving the sweet potatoes to the top and getting it out of the liquid as well as shortening the cook time. Plus, I cut them into too small pieces. Other
Last week, I organized my baking cabinet. I’m still amazed every time I open that door. It’s so pretty in there! I can find everything, too! Love it! Next week, we’re working on our pantry, so if you have any pantry tips, I’d love to hear them, so I can share with other readers what you do! I don’t know if you’ve been following along with us in this
As you all know, I’m in the process of trying to lose weight! It’s been a struggle to change my bad habits again. Yesterday was a good day though. I had a light breakfast and I wasn’t that hungry for lunch, so I decided to make a smoothie for lunch, in hopes that it would fill me up for a while, plus I’ll get my chocolate fix in. Believe me,
There’s one thing I love about eggs….they’re versatile and they’re pretty good for you, too. I love having my eggs with cheese and veggies, so quiche is the perfect dish for me. This recipe in particular is pretty easy to accommodate different tastes, as you can put whatever meat or vegetable in it that you want to. The other night, I was in a pinch, not sure what to serve
Last week, I told you how I was going to be working on eating better and exercising more! I will be checking in with you, sharing my weekly successes and failures. I’m hoping to stay accountable to somebody and also hoping to motivate you as well! I have officially begun my 60 Day T-Tapp Challenge. I’m thrilled to be moving my body more. I’ve actually only done the 15 minute
