When I was the proud owner of a two year-old, there was much talk about the dreaded "terrible twos". As a toddler, when Max acted up in public or in front of family, the excuse was often made, "oh, it's just the terrible twos", as if it were some sort of plague that effected all kids of that age, throughout the history of time. I never really considered it to be ... Read More

Cheers to the weekend my friends... after what seemed like the longest week ever, I couldn't be more thrilled that Saturday is upon us. I'm hoping to use the next few days to get our home decorated for Halloween. I'm always big on decorating for fall, like as soon as September hits, but I generally lose some steam when it comes to Halloween decor. Now that M&E are ... Read More
Pumpkin Dip
Several years ago, back when I was still a working woman, someone in my office brought in the most amazing pumpkin dip for a fall party that we were having. Naturally, being the pumpkin advocate that I am, I was all about this dip... I kept going back for more (and more). Because I was feeling the need to replicate the dish at home, of course I asked my co-worker for the ... Read More
Non-Truths I Tell Myself and My Children
... Because I can't call them Lies! 1. "The baby deserves a treat" while stuffing something in my mouth that clearly offers zero health benefits to my child in utero... Case in point the hot chocolate, pictured above, with all the fixin's. 2. "That is mommy's medicine", when Max finds my secret candy stash in the pantry and asks what something is. 3. ... Read More
Weekend Recap aka The Big Purge
Normally on Mondays (or sometimes Tuesdays, depending on how our week kicks off), I like to do a little recap, here on the blog, of our weekend. It's usually mostly photos, you know, for memories sake. This past weekend however, nothing photo-worthy occurred. There were no trips to the pumpkin patch, there was no apple picking taking place... this past ... Read More

{photo via} October is officially here, and I don't know how the weather is where you all are, but the temperatures here in New York have dropped quite a bit this past week. It doesn't seem that we're going to be climbing out of the low to mid 50's this weekend, which means it really and truly feels like fall now (yipee!) This time of year, through the ... Read More
Lightened Up Creamy Chicken & Broccoli Cassrole
It has been pouring here, literally all. day. long. The temperature dropped about 10 or more degrees, and the wind has been howling. Blame it on the pregnancy hormones, or maybe it is just the monsoon going down outside, but ever since lunch time I have been craving comfort food. So, I decided to do what any woman in her right mind would do, and took to Pinterest to ... Read More
Becoming a Party of Five
Well friends, if you haven't already heard, allow me to share the news... we're having another baby!!! That's right, baby number three is on the way, and due to arrive in early April. The number of responses we have received, upon disclosing our little secret, have ranged from the ever popular, "congratulations!" to "good God, you guys are crazy!". I have to admit, that ...

Happy first official weekend of fall! It seems it is now socially acceptable for our house to be fully decorated for autumn... even though it has been since the first week of September (fall enthusiast over here!). On this weekend's agenda is an attempt at a family trip to the apple orchard, followed promptly by indulging in warm homemade apple crisp, and we'll be ... Read More
