Hey guys! We have been talking away on our Instagram stories that we kind of forgot to keep our blog updated with what we have been talking about! The past two weeks we have been very into rotisserie chicken for quick, weeknight dinners. We have multiple activities during the week for the kiddos, and at the end of the day, the easiest meal to put together is a rotisserie chicken dinner. Here are some of the meals we have had, maybe they help you out too. Just make sure you check in with the kitchen where the chicken is roasted to make sure your allergy is not present. And as…
Chicken Breast & Pancetta Cream & Peas
On Sunday mornings, after reading a bit of the New York Times, I start to think about the week ahead, how busy it might be, and what we will have for dinner. Lately we’ve been so busy that I haven’t had much time to think about food, nor do I want to. I don’t day-dream about food, I just like eating it.

Premixed soup bases can be overly salty, high in calories, or lack overall flavor. This mix NAILED IT. Fair sodium, no msg, low 90 calories and hearty. Taste…
English Muffin Pizza
Winter break is approaching. Kids are going to be wild. They’re going to be “bored” and they’re probably going to get on your nerves a bit, especially if you’re home with them the entire time – or if one gets sick, and the other doesn’t and you’re trapped. We can create all sorts of scenarios, but basically, I like to have some activities in mind so we can make simple stuff fun, just in case we get stuck inside. Today Carter and I made English Muffin Pizza Faces. I know, totally just making “what school sent home as an activity to work on” – but I’m feeling like Mom of…
