I'm extremely passionate about feeding my family wholesome, natural foods, free from artificial ingredients/preservatives, high fructose corn syrup, trans fats, hydrogenated oils, and MSG. I was talking to a few moms last week about what we do and don't eat.Â... Read More »

This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by. The winner is Melissa (#56). Congrats! My husband and I have a bit of a sweet tooth...and it's apparently rubbed off on our son! I find it interesting that he even knows about candy, since he's had it very few times in his life. As a family, we're committed to providing our children with the health... Read More »

I went to a certain market today (it's one of my favorites) and I gasped when I saw the price for one avocado...$1.69! I absolutely adore eating avocados...but almost $2...for ONE? It wasn't even organic! Must. Keep. Searching.
I digressed...Did you know that avocados are the perfect first food for infants? I didn't! And I'm assuming they don't mean guacamole... Read More »

KinderCare Learning Centers also of... Read More »

As a busy, working, blogging mom, I'm always looking for quick, healthy meals. While I've had the occasional frozen meal, it's not a practice I make a habit of. And because I'm not the chef my husband is, I often resort to boring, redundant meals like baked chicken or pasta.
Fresh & Easy is launching a brand new line of fresh ready meals this week called Ea... Read More »

Remember when we took my son to see Alvin, Simon, and Theodore? Well...he has not stopped talking about them. Although I think the movie (Alvin & The Chipmunks: The Squeakquel) is a bit mature for him (my husband disagrees), he has seen it more than a few times. It's actually quite cute, upbeat, and fun (and the music will stick in your head for days!).

As a little girl, I have fond memories of crafting and baking with my mom. I love re-creating some of those memories with my son. This Sunday, we'll be "hunting" for the eggs we've colored this week and finishing off the gluten, dairy, and egg-free cupcakes we made.
I'm not the most creative mom around, so I have to get my recipes and projects online. Earlier t... Read More »
