This St. Patrick’s Day we had a family pasta making party. It was a ton of fun, and I completely forgot to post the photos! We made basil and kale pasta for the green agnalotti, and stuffed it with a lemon ricotta. We also made fettuccine with a ton of white wine sauce and seafood, […]

Better Butter Chicken
Butter chicken and naan bread are a staple dinner in our home. There is something magical about the blend of spices, the creaminess, and of course the fluffy buttery garlic naan (that may be my favorite part). Recently we found a way to make it even better, with the addition of a new product by […]
Father’s Day
This weekend we celebrated Father’s Day with sunshine, a slip’n slide, pizza and pie! It was a really nice and sweet day. There have been some stressful days lately, and it felt nice to just hang out together, cook, and play. Sometimes that is just what your soul needs. It also felt really great to […]
Fresh Pasta Family Night
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.
Spanakopita
Today I attempted to make the traditional and fussy Spanakopita with my children. And it was a disaster. A complete disaster. I wanted to make them because I know my husband loves them and we had a stupid fight this morning and I wanted to do something nice for him. So we hit up Walmart […]
Natalie Rose Turns One

A Sea of Support
This past week has had me thinking about human nature more than I care to admit. If you have been following along with Thor’s story you can see that we have had an emotional week. Emotional to say the least. But the emotions have also been surrounded by an amazing support. Not just from family […]
Blueberry Dumplings
Last week we asked for some recipe suggestions from all of our blog followers and we had so many fun responses! Because we had so many responses I decided to do more than one of the recipes. Last night I made Blueberry Dumplings. I have to admit it was my first time and I had […]
