Gnocchi in a mushroom brown butter sauce Here is dinner for tonight. I’m trying to take more photos, and dinner seems like a good time to pull out the camera. However, it also isn’t a good time because I’m in a hurry to get the table set and the kids at the table. Still, as [...]

Mac and Ada’s new hobby

Mar 11th, 2009 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 0

Ada and Mac puzzle time We had some puzzles in the basement–ones that we had picked up for my mom and Curt, but they left them here because they were, I’m not exaggerating, really hard. Mac heard that his dad and Tammy liked to do puzzles, so he took them over there. One day he [...]

A list for you to keep with you

50 Things You Can Control Right Now. I only have an issue with one of them. The person who picked number 50 does not have a 2-year old. James does not stay in bed. He gets three strikes before he is put into the back-up pack-n-play to contain him. He can now just climb out [...]

Dinner, as it was simmering I decided to grab my camera to take a photo of dinner while it was cooking, and I wasn’t doing anything but waiting. I didn’t have two main ingredients to make shrimp scampi: white wine and lemons. Boo. I ended up making this, which was good, but would have been [...]

New Pepsi design…again

Mar 9th, 2009 // In: Posts // By: // Comments 0

I had mentioned in an earlier post that I spotted Pepsi’s new packaging. I really like it, although not enough to actually drink the crap inside. Then I heard on the news that Pepsi Co was going to start creating some of their sodas using cane sugar instead of HFCS. I applaud that, but it [...]

I have been really swamped with work, so Mac has been doing the cooking, and I have yet to make a meal plan for the week. I did mange to grill some KC strip, and I tried to grill some hamburgers to only run out of gas and then find out that the back-up tank [...]
