Yesterday, I was really in the mood for some pizza. Actually I’m not sure what it’s like to not be in the mood for pizza. The only dilemma: we had no crust ingredients, and Livi was snoozing peacefully upstairs. I thought of the ground organic chicken we had in the fridge: and decided to make it…

Baby signs
There are so many moments in your baby’s life that will shock you and fill you with happiness that you didn’t know existed. Just a few on the very long list: How dang cute they look in those little hooded towels.. the first real word, “mama,” “dada” or in our case: “eye” when they smile…

They may taste like a treat, but these peanut butter cup protein balls are healthy! Keep them around in the fridge to have on hand for a boost of healthy fat and protein! It was only a matter of time, right? Since amazeballs are a standard snack in our house, I love to come up…

Share the love
The coolest thing happened at Starbucks yesterday! (Ok, second coolest thing since I met my husband there.) I drove up to the window to pay for our order, and the barista told me that the car in front of us had already paid for it. It was such a fun, thoughtful surprise and added a…
