Chicken Parmesan

by Birdie on January 27, 2012

I made this chicken parmesan last night. I made a few changes like I used chicken tenders (chicken breasts that were cut in half is what it looked like) and I think I should have cooked it for less time. Other than that it was really good and I’ll be making it again as hubby loved it. The roasted broccoli did not get made because there was no broccoli at the store. I know, I couldn’t believe it either. Oh well. Maybe next week. I’m going to go look on Pinterest for another new recipe to try!

I’m Back Baby

January 22, 2012

I went through about a month where I had decided I was going to quit blogging (for myself) all together. I was tired of trying to be creative and interesting and not making money on this site. Then there was some added drama with the company I was writing reviews for that kind of finished [...]

Vintage Remedies for Kids Review

December 19, 2011

I’m just going to start this review by telling you that I am totally prejudiced. I am, and not because I got my copy of Vintage Remedies for Kids for free so I could review it. I get lots of free stuff to review. You know what I don’t get a lot of? Sweet thank [...]

I’m Just Sayin’

December 14, 2011

You have no idea how painful it was for me to write the title of this post. This has become one of my biggest pet peeves. Everyone uses this online. It is in tweets, Facebook updates, blog posts…it is everywhere. I know what you are just sayin’ because you just said it. Say it and [...]

Strong Willed

December 8, 2011

Have I mentioned that both of my children are strong willed? Each in their own little beautiful/infuriating ways. Little Bear (the oldest) is very passive aggressive. He’ll just not “hear/understand” what it is you want him to do unless he is strongly motivated by bribes/fear to pay attention (::cough:: just like his daddy ::cough::). Little [...]

Inadequate

December 7, 2011

You know…I’ve been doing some self reflection lately. Why am I procrastinator? Why don’t I keep up a blog I love? I think the answer is I feel inadequate. I’m not sure what I have to add to the mommy bloggingsphere…or the homeschool blogging sphere. Ya know? There are SO many great blogs out there [...]

One Year

December 5, 2011

It has been one year since my dad died. I guess I could say passed on, went to a better place, or some other flowery phrase but that really isn’t me. Especially the better place bit, that always makes me want to slap someone. Wouldn’t be a good idea to make me want to slap [...]
