I’m not a gourmet and for the most part, I don’t enjoy cooking. I want to. I really, really want to be a good cook. I want to make meals that are tasty, healthy, and that are enjoyed by my family. I’ve been trying hard and I’m glad to say that every month I get a [...]

I love my iPod, and could listen to music all day if it were possible.  Sometimes, especially when the kids are napping or I am exercising, I want to listen to music but also want to be aware of the noises and sounds around me.  For those times, I listen to my music with a [...]

I don’t think it’s a big admission to say that I need more energy. Really? Like who doesn’t? I want to be the type of mom that’s on the floor playing trains in the morning, making mud pies in the afternoon, and jumping on the bed at nighttime. I hate those days, hours, minutes when [...]

It’s not a fun topic…but lice is an unfortunate part of many children’s lives. I know from my time in the classroom that it happens and it can have a huge impact on kids. Treatment can often be difficult, time-consuming, and scary. I remember having to have my own scalp checked because students I worked [...]

I run but I don’t really consider myself a runner. It’s always been something I do for myself…time to reflect, zone out, and just be. I don’t compete and I don’t keep track. I just run! For me, running gear doesn’t mean style first. It’s means pure grit, ready to take a beating, and comfort. [...]

Aren’t we all trying to find foods for our family that pack the most amount of punch nutritionally? I know I’m always searching for recipes and products that are yummy and healthy. It’s hard and not a simple thing to do. Recently I’ve been cooking up pasta night with Ronzoni Healthy Harvest Pasta. As a [...]
