Oh November

It's been quite a busy and tiring November for me.

I haven't had a chance to update the blog as much as I would like to. I haven't even had a chance to post my "Look back at meningitis" blog I wrote weeks ago. I'm still looking it over (when I get the chance) and adding or deleting to it.  It's a long one but I hope to get it posted this week.. just to say I did.

The reason for all my exhaustion?
Evan.
Ha ha! Was there any doubt?

His 4th tooth is cutting his gums and like his previous 3 teeth, he is not dealing with the pain well. Up at all hours of the night.  Crying in obvious pain from his teeth.  Poor thing.

Greek-Style Chicken Recipe

If you're a fan of chicken... especially chicken thighs, then this is a recipe for you!

Ever since my best friend, Celine, introduced me to this "greek-style chicken" slow cooker recipe, I've been in love. It's so quick to prepare and very tasty!! I have to say, I've probably made this recipe over 100 times now,  I don't even need the recipe to look at.  I just eyeball all the measurements and toss them into the slow cooker. 

Ericka truly loves this chicken recipe. She can't get enough of the chicken plus the broth with the rice. She's always asking for more.  And when my toddler eats, it makes mama very happy!

We Remember

Today we take the time to remember the men and women who have served, and continue to serve our country during times of war, conflict and peace.

We thank-you.

Goodbye BlackBerry...

...Hello Apple iPhone!!

I have finally joined team iPhone after years with BlackBerry. I had been a loyal BB fan for years. From the BB curve to the BB torch.. I had them all. But as smartphones became better, faster and more exciting... the BlackBerry brand unfortunately did not. Not for ME at least.

Quick, Easy and Delicious Meatloaf

Ever look at the clock and realize you haven't even prepped a thing for dinner yet? 

There's no time to defrost any meats from the freezer. 

You realize you're missing a key ingredient to make one of your usual signature dishes. 

Oh man! Dinner for the family is going to be a real gong show if you don't think of anything, and quick!
