Exercise/Diet Update: How I lost 5 pounds this week. I know many readers here have subscribed or came from my “How I lost 33 Pounds…” blog post that went live on Money Saving Mom last year in July.. It’s been a strange year to say the least. I gained 5 pounds – which I …
Book Update: I gave up on “All the Light We Cannot See” by Anthony Doer. I must be a freak because now there are not 6 thousand, not 8 thousand, but now 9 thousand reviews on Amazon for this book! That’s like 1000 more reviews since I started reading it. I started reading instead a good …
We interrupt this regularly scheduled program to bring you royal icing and sugar cookies! I have two pork tenderloin recipes ready to go for matching with the Maple Mash Butternut Squash. However, I had another wonderful group of moms at a local MOPS group hear my presentation on how to decorate cakes and cupcakes. Everyone …
I stopped reading “The Opposite of Lonliness” by Marina Keegan. The intro and first essay were excellent. After that, the entire book loses my interest. I wouldn’t recommend it.

The cast iron simplifies cooking and makes for a speedy clean-up. And since I have … oh … a bushel of apples… …
Book Update: I finished “The Rent Collector” by Camren Wright. It was good! I would recommend it if you like reading especially about other parts of the world. My other projects were on hold today due to mouse poop. Yep. The mice found some grass seed and left mouse poop all over the shoe area …
Book Update: No novels so far. Book club is in… limbo? I’m not sure. Well, anyway I have been delving deep into more cast iron skillet recipes and general know how. Several of my friends have been ditching their non-stick cookware due to the health concerns raised. I haven’t seen anything in the big media …
Several people have asked me for the workshop details for the Wildtree Kid Friendly Freezer Meal Workshop. Now, most kids have different tastes, so I tried to provide a variety of basic foods kids might like. Nobody eats fish? Use chicken! Nobody likes lemon rosemary blend? Try lemon pepper! You really can mix and match …
Soooo… I’m back on the meal planning and organizing my chores thing. I waver on this especially since my life was consumed by “South Pacific” for 2 months. I used to plan each day of the week, but sometimes it doesn’t work out. First, you want to use up a piece of produce that might …
