Another homerun for Cooking Light in the dessert arena. Love this Blackberry Cobbler! It tastes just like summer with a nice scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream. Especially if that ice cream happens to come from Oberweis. Oh Yum.

Oh, and word to the wise, don’t grind your [...]
I’ve already mentioned that we’ve started partaking of the fresh goodness of home-grown lettuce, but I thought you might like to see how our garden is growing. The weather this year has been a perfect combination of heat and rain, so I’m hoping our peppers and tomatoes will thrive despite my inexperience.

I have a confession to make.
I never follow recipes. Ever. Which is probably why I’m not the best baker. But that, really, is beside the point. I just can’t help but add my own twist to everything I make in the kitchen.
I like to say that recipes provide me with inspiration, then I [...]

Happy early Father’s Day to my dear husband! I wanted to write a quick tribute to my fabulous hubby, who also happens to be an exceptional daddy.
From day one I knew he’d be the most caring and patient father anyone could ask for. He took such good care of me during the labor/delivery [...]
The sun came out yesterday. Oh, it was just gorgeous! We’ve had a bit of a dreary June, so today really felt like the first day of summer.
We tried out the kiddy-pool for the first time. I think it’s safe to say we have a pool junkie on our hands.
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the “mundaneness” (is that a word?) of motherhood. While my life was certainly routine before becoming a mom, it was nothing compared to my days with a baby on my hip.
You know the drill: wake up to baby crying, nurse baby, change baby’s diaper [...]
Where ever we go, Parker tends to win the hearts of the people he meets. What can I say? He is a little charmer! Here he is all adorable enjoying our dinner at Portillo’s. Sorry for the iPhone quality, it was too cute not to share!

For those of you who are mothers of boys, you can probably relate to needing some pink in your life every now and again. I’m not an overly girly-girl, but I still get tickled *ahem* pink by the idea of polka dots, flowers, and feminine colors. I can’t wait to have a little girl one [...]
