This Moms Little Helpers
According to Insta Gram I have been cheating at dinner these last few days! Let me break down what has really been going on! First let's not start out by calling them cheats. Cheating has such an ugly connotation and there is nothing ugly about getting a little help and there is rarely anything ugly … Continue reading This Moms Little Helpers
Onions!
Onions. We love them for the flavors they give us and we hate them for the tears we shed when slicing them.

Burgers for The Boys
We all needed a little break from the soups and I needed something I could make fast so I choose burgers. Let me qualify what I mean by fast: any meal that can be made is 45 minutes or less. I just can't get the hang of Rachel's 30 minute meals and I am certain … Continue reading Burgers for The Boys
Experiments!

We did have an extra mouth last night but the boys eat at school so I send huge bowls since they can't really get seconds. And since this one is a favorite I don't follow a recipe … Continue reading French Onion Soup
More planning!
I am a little later in the week for making a meal plan than I usually am but we have been eating so much soup and we brought back food from our weekend outing that it hasn't been necessary for me to think! The boys have class tonight and I want to make another soup … Continue reading More planning!

I love soup. I love mushrooms. Let's make some mushroom soup! There is a place here that makes the best ever mushroom soup, I go once or twice a year just for the soup and I always leave swearing that I can successfully recreate their dish and I have yet to make their magic in … Continue reading Mushroom Soup
