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. […]
Love Notes From Around the World
Happy Valentines Day! On this magical day of love I thought I would share what I did for my wonderful husband this Valentines Day.
Bible Basics Book Review
Little Chef loves to read, most days he asks me to read him a story about 35 times between waking and finally going to sleep at the end of the night. I try to keep a full library of books available to him, but he always seems to gravitate to a few select favourites. Last […]

Last days as a duo
Today I am really feeling nostalgic for my last days as a mother of one. Maybe it’s because Little Chef has been the vision of happy perfection today {I better not jinx myself and he ends up a terror this afternoon}, or maybe it’s my due date with #2 fast approaching, but I feel like […]
Buttery Carbs as Therapy
This morning little chef woke up at 4:30 am, and after hushing him back to sleep (because under no circumstances was I ready to start my cheerio throwing day at 4:30) I laid in bed unable to fall back asleep. Suddenly in the dark the weight of the world came crashing down on my chest […]
