I’m getting off to a slow start this morning with my big girl already up and a bit of a rough night with both girls. I hope I’m ready for another busy week. This week is speech therapy, Kindermusik, a party at a friend’s house, my mom’s group and the church Christmas program. I’m hoping …
Simple Supper Series: Pumpkin Pasta Two Ways {grain free, gluten free, dairy free, nut free, corn free}
Today I’m sharing another simple supper that comes together in minutes. Pumpkin pasta two ways. Pumpkin pasta is a dish anyone can eat (unless you are allergic to pumpkin!). You can make it gluten free or grain free, however you like it. I love that it’s one more way to add broth to a meal…and …
Dairy Free Egg Free Egg Nog

Good morning. It’s time to start a new week. I tried to do a little more than I should on Saturday (again) on top of being gone all afternoon at my husband’s orchestra concert. So I’m already feeling a bit behind and tired today. Not a good way to start the week. We have a …
Simple Soup Series: Split Pea Soup
Hands down my favorite kind of soup is split pea! Growing up it was such a treat when my mom would make a pot of split pea soup with big chunks of ring sausage. You could smell it simmering on the stove for hours in anticipation of dinner. So of course I make it for …
