My kids love walking to the mailbox for one reason. It comes in the form of a brightly colored magazine called Clubhouse Jr. Within the pages are stories, life lessons, jokes and activities. They pour over every amazing detail together on the couch and then inevitably have some craft request from within. I am decidedly… Continue reading Get On The Veggie Train With Your Lollipop

Chicken Noodle Soup
Here's the chicken noodle soup I made with my homemade egg noodles. It is full of celery, carrots, onion and chicken. Perfectly homey and delicious. It was incredible. A little tip that I use all the time. At the beginning of most weeks, I poach a few chicken breasts. It’s really easy. Boil broth in… Continue reading Chicken Noodle Soup
Barbeque Turkey Sliders
I recently started dabbling in wine. I've always been more of a vodka girl personally, but it just seems so socially grown up to drink a glass of wine at a party. Who says peer pressure stays in high school? A while back I managed to finish my first glass, but it was Moscato so… Continue reading Barbeque Turkey Sliders
Pepperoni Pizza Poppers
Dun-dun-dun-dun. Ba-ba, ba-ba. (drums) Dun-dun-dun-dun!! Ba-ba, ba-ba! What? Don't recognize that? Hmmm. I may be overreaching the bounds of my regular viewing audience here. Let's try this. That's right! It's back! Football season! Woo-hoo! Tonight is the return of Monday Night Football and I couldn't be more pleased. My husband can't wait until February 2013… Continue reading Pepperoni Pizza Poppers
Pizza Puffs
Sometimes, sandwiches just aren't going to cut it for lunch. I mean really, I can't expect my kids to eat them every day just because I can make them in my sleep. I made these pizza puffs to change-up our mid-day meal today and my two preschoolers ate the entire batch. They devoured them so… Continue reading Pizza Puffs

Well, with this recipe you can make your own, in whatever quantity you can manage to make room for in between frozen corn and random half bags of ice… Continue reading Creamy Chicken Taquitos
Turkey Taco Cups
Mexican food is a big time favorite in my house. We have some variety at least once a week. And it seems that whenever I make tacos, I always have leftovers. Not enough really for another meal though. I hate throwing food away, leftovers especially. I mean, I already made all the stuff right? What… Continue reading Turkey Taco Cups
Cheesy Vegetable Chowder
(happy sigh) This chowder is heavenly. Full of broccoli and cheese and deliciousness. I made it on a snow day recently and just in the nick of time. Right after I took it off the stove and headed out to shovel some snow (with my belly full and warm of this amazing soup), my sister… Continue reading Cheesy Vegetable Chowder
Homemade Mini-Corndogs
My kids LOVE corndogs. They would eat them breakfast, lunch and dinner if I let them. Seriously. If I ever make the mistake of asking what they want to eat, the unanimous enthusiastic response is CORNDOGS!! Here's the problem-o though. My kids are still young enough that I'm paranoid about them choking on a hot… Continue reading Homemade Mini-Corndogs
Chinese Chicken Salad
One of my all time favorite light meals is Chinese Chicken Salad. I always thought it was hard to make, until my friend Emily shared her recipe with me. Wow. So easy and scrumptious. I love it! Crunchy almonds mixed with a slightly sweet, slightly tangy sauce take a plain old bag of coleslaw mix… Continue reading Chinese Chicken Salad
