Fresh pasta, the thing of gods… or people with the luxury of extra time. Which today in an odd turn of events we had. An entire day at home together. Jamie decided to make fresh pasta.

Natalie Rose Turns One
Miss Natalie Rose turned one! (last month, I know I’m very behind) But such is life with two wild little hooligans, jobs, marriage, bills, and side hussle of course. Because who just has a simple life? We sure don’t. But we do have a very sweet one. And a very sweet one year old. […]

I Love You to the Ocean
Lately Little Chef has started saying “I love you to the ocean” and we are not sure where he picked it up. Maybe he created it from his book about the little nutbrown hare who says he loves his mommy to the moon, or from the skinnamarinky song. Who knows.
