Paleo in a Pinch

Well, Hello There

Happy Day!! Up and at ‘em early. Rode my bike to and from the pool, swimming a mile in between. It dawned on me, it’s been weeks since I’ve posted anything! I guess it’s taken some time to acclimate to having 3 kiddos {elementry, middle school and high school ages} home with me full time. […]

BLAZIN’ BUFFALO CHICKEN CABBAGE ROLLS

It’s no secret our household is crazy {like, really crazy} about the Portland Trailblazers. In fact, we’ve only missed one game this season.

You’ll have to pardon my absence for a short time. I’m dealing with some vertigo issues, relating to an inner ear infection. Remember last weeks Facebook ear/sinus post?
