First... As I was peeing (TMI?) right before we headed out the door, I used the last of the toilet paper. I'm glad that…

Due to a nasty speeding ticket, overspending on Tristan's birthday party/gifts and general poor planning, I get to buy groceries to feed the four of us (I count Marian because I eat twice as much as a normal person while nursing!) 3 meals a day for $100 bucks. This is not cool. To get into the…

So I've been asked a lot about who won the pool. I'll tell you, but you have to read my WHOLE BLOG first. NO PEEKING. First, let's discuss Maid Marian and her DRAMATIC entry into the world.
Wednesday morning I woke up and felt funny "down there" so I rush to the bathroom and sure enough, I'd…

A few months ago, I posted a thread on the RE to have people guess my baby's weight, date, etc... here's the list I saved, so when the time comes, I can give out the recipe I promised to the winner! (For all of you who guessed boy.... sorry! It's a girl!)

For a long time, I lived in a tiny town south east of Austin called Lockhart. Lockhart is the home of some of the best barbeque in Texas, and enough cotton fields that at harvest time, it really looks like a tampon factory exploded! I moved to Lockhart when I was 8 months pregnant with Tristan,…

This is the only recipe that I'm really "known" for. And oddly enough, it's a cake, and I don't bake!!! Well, not often. I'm on a new "no high fructose corn syrup" kick and I haven't yet converted this recipe, and I'm not sure it'll survive the switch. It's tasty enough though that even if I…

This is a fun "Recipe" for baby showers and "welcome home" parties for new babies.
A diaper cake is just that. It's a 3 tier "cake" made of diapers! You can't eat it, but I promise the mom-to-be will love it! It's easy but time consuming, and totally worth it!
To start, you'll need about 100

Those of you who have tried to order from my Tastefully Simple site - I've fixed it and it should be able to accept orders now without a problem!
I made the TS Beer Bread last night and WOW, we're not bread eaters but we ate half a loaf! I also made the TS Almond Pound Cake and I had to send…
