I bet you’re all thinking you wish I would make up my dang mind. I go from sweets to South Beach friendly meals to Paleo/Primal style posts. The overall truth is that I feel like I gained a crap ton of weight with my last child and I did not (quote DID NOT) want to […]

I haven’t written much on here about my resolution, only because I think it might be a kind of odd or even vein {sort of???} resolution. The whole healthy and super active lifestyle option was out the window since I’m pushing 6 months pregnant. So, I took the make-me-feel-good-while-I’m-getting-fat approach. I chose to keep my […]

Here are the 5 easy steps to making your own popcorn without spending a fortune on the portioned bags from the store! Just buy the huge bag of popcorn kernels (the everyday price on 32 oz. at my grocery store was $1.97). Pour 1/4 cup kernels into a brown paper bag. Roll bag two times. […]

I’ve been wanting to practice some delicious new cupcakes for my almost 2 year old’s (seriously WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE??) birthday.

Last week husband was gone for 6 days on a business trip. He came back feeling awful and needed a little detox from all the eating out and high carb meals. So, now he’s trying to really limit his carbs. Tonight I made him some meatza. It’s like pizza, but without the crust and instead […]

I’m writing this post because I’m once again 5 months pregnant. We will have three girls in less than four years (my poor, poor, poor husband). With this said, my oldest two are only 21 months apart and I lost every pound (by working SO hard) in between them and I lost every pound plus […]
