New Favorite Brownie Alert!
So a few years ago– probably more than a few, but less than 10 – so let’s call it several. Several years ago, I went through a big brownie phase. From memory, it was pre-baby but post wedding. So I had lots of time, and went into the office every week/every day and would bring…

This week- we go retro with a blast from the past!
12 years– A lifetime ago and yet just yesterday. It’s weird how the older you get, the faster time passes. For this week’s menu I’ve/we’ve gone back to the archives to find a recipe. See, I have nearly ever single issues of Delicious magazine since about 2005. A long story for another day. Anyway, this…

What we ate this week…
As promised in last week’s post, we did in fact eat Glazed Pork Cutlets with Japanese Slaw, the BLT Salad and Baked Chicken Taquitos from I Heart Naptime Cookbook…and Steak with leftover Bearnaise Sauce.

Day 35- almost there!!!!!
So- Happy first day of December and Happy we’re almost done with the kitchen. All the cabinets are in but not all of them have doors. We have running water and new electrical outlets. The appliances are all in place- and the dishwasher even has dirty dishes in it- ready to be washed. We are…

Day 34. Water water everywhere…
Ok, technically not everywhere, just in the sink. Which after 34 days of not having a kitchen sink is quite exciting and entertaining. We take it for granted, but it is pretty cool to have water again. I don’t really understand how water actually comes into our house and out of the tap. I’m sure…

Day 33
So. I meant to update you all on Saturday afternoon, but I was too busy admiring my new kitchen counters. Yep, we have a place to sit on, lean on and store things on. It’s really made the kitchen take shape since the sink is now in place, the stove top is in place and…

Day 30- Happy Thanksgiving!
30 days since we started this kitchen caper. And it’s not done yet. Are we cooking this Thanksgiving? No. Am I disappointed? Yes. Did I hope we’d be done by now? Definitely. Are we? Well….no. We are getting close though. Looking back, the first week was a frenzy, and since then, it’s been….. hurry up…
