What’s in the basket?
One thing I love about moving so often is that it forces you to get rid of clutter and start fresh wherever you go. Marrying a military man forced me to transform from the girl with hundreds of random bottles and cosmetics to more of a minimalist. I just get what I absolutely need and…

I’m having some challenges with packing my hospital suitcase. According to Babycenter, it should be ready within two weeks, but I don’t want to take a bunch of things I don’t need or forget critical items at home. Here’s a list of Babycenter’s suggestions, and what I’m thinking about bringing: A picture ID (driver’s license…
Read More →Reader’s Request: Healthy Halloween!
Halloween is a great time to reminisce about the excitement of being dressed up in costume (and mad because mom made me wear a sweater with my sparkly Little Mermaid outfit because it was cold), swapping details with neighborhood friends on where the “good” houses are, and filling bags to the brim with candy.

Easy and delicious gluten-free crepes
It’s been wayyyyy too long…. The return of crepes! I got a link back yesterday from a friend who made these, and I can’t believe I forgot about them for so long. I’m definitely a creature of habit when it comes to breakfast, and go through phases where I rotate between 3 or so things.…

It’s already starting…
After a night of partying and piñata-smashing, I hit the snooze button a couple [more] times this morning. After making breakfast for the birthday boy and he left for work, I made some pumpkin oats. (Love that the 1/2 C scoop is a pumpkin!) Since it’s a special occasion –even though I’d do this on…

This morning the Pilot was admiring my growing (and now shaking and moving!) belly, and told me “I can’t believe you’re 6 months already.” “Um… I’m pretty much 30 weeks.” “So that’s 7 1/2 months? Ok, I feel better now. Because your arms and legs are still tiny, but this belly is like WHOMP” This…
