Recipe Swap: Using Leftovers – Making Chicken Broth
I have a confession. I tend to buy carrots and celery for one particular meal and then let them go bad in the fridge waiting for that meal to make its way back on the rotation. Because that meal only called for two stalks of celery or three medium carrots. And the...
Potty-Training: If At First You Don’t Succeed…*Edited*
... And You Continue To Not Succeed... Take a break. We are officially back in diapers. The cues I am waiting for before we start up again: Tells me when she's gone potty (in her diaper). Tells me when she needs to go potty. Tells me she wants to go potty. In my...

Using Leftovers: Roast Chicken – Family Sized Baked Burrito
First of all, my apologies for completely spacing yesterday. Giveaways and What I Believe have wiped my brain clean of any intelligent bloggy thought. Hopefully you'll forgive me. 🙂 Second of all, after Thanksgiving this year, I posted three cooked turkey recipes I...

I Get $10, You Get $25; We’re All Happy *Edited*
If you haven't already read about Revolution Money Exchange, let me fill you in. It's prety much going to replace paypal. Or at least be good competition for it. Because Monopoly is only good on Saturday nights with popcorn and good friends, not in businesses. It's a...
