This week my goal is to double up on at least three of my meals and freeze half of each one, in preparation for my new baby. I don’t want to have to worry about feeding the rest of my family those first couple of weeks.ย It’s definitely a bit hot here for such warm, hearty meals, but hey – we have air conditioning

I didn’t get a chance to watch BB10 last night, but I am watching the second episode now and will watch tonight’s episode (3) after. What the heck is up with Brian being so cocky already?? Isn’t it way too early for this? Renny, the New Orleans lady, is so crazy. I can’t believe she didn’t realize how annoying she was in the middle

My husband and I both recently got new cell phones. In the past, I think I would’ve just left my old one to lay around or gave it to my kid to play with. Not anymore. The new phone came with a recycling bag that I can just send it back to the company to be recycled. Love that idea. I could also sell

It’s a new year and I plan on making an effort to get back into my weekly meal planning. I really notice a difference in the way we eat and spend money on food when I don’t meal plan.
