If you’ve spent any time here poking around through past posts, you’ve likely seen me write about faith, joy, depression, community, fear and how going it alone not only stinks, it’s not the way things were meant to be. (side note: I really, really wanted to put a comma after “fear”, but I’m told we no longer put commas between …

Manic Monday – Crock Pot Recipes
It’s that time of year; when warm, hearty meals bring comfort and nostalgia. And where the thought of something hot to eat doesn’t make you want to hurt someone. 🙂 I use my crock pot year round, but it certainly sees more frequent use during the fall and winter months.

Manic Monday – Traveling With Baby
Since we were traveling for the last week, the tips listed below made my week run a lot smoother, so I thought they’d make a good Manic Monday! Air Travel has changed a lot in the last few years.

Manic Monday – The Shoe Rack
If you’ve spent anytime at all wandering around my little corner of Blogland, you’ve most likely found that organization is not my forte, and that I’m chronically lazy at heart, and I am not in any form or fashion a morning person.

Manic Monday – The Chore Chart
Alternate title for this post: The Experiment So, admittedly, I am not a naturally tidy/organized person. This isn’t for lack of trying on my mother’s part. She taught and trained us well. It’s just I let my lazy, selfish nature take over more often than not. That, however, is not what I want to teach my kids. Also, we have …
Manic Monday – Menu
When we lived in the States, and thereby lived by the American clock/calendar, I made a weekly menu plan. I planned what meal we would have on what night, and keep a running list of the ingredients needed for those meals to organize my weekly shop. I would shop once a week, and that was it.

Tell your kitchen sink “goodnight”. Take a few minutes before you go to bed to make sure the dishes are clean, put away, and …
