New Ways With Chicken
Posted by DariaSockey in Food on Wednesday, August 17, 2011
Yesterday I ran into the supermarket for Just two items. So I didn’t bother grabbing a cart.
I never learn. As usual, I was staggering up to the checkout line with my arms full. This time, along with the tortillas and teriyaki sauce I’d come for, two boxes of Little Debbies were tucked under my arm, and my poor little fingers were twisted into the ends of plastic bags containing three large roasting...

What's Cooking, Mom?

Warm Up With Pumpkin Soup

Over the weekend, I was inspired by the simple recipe for Pumpkin Soup Kristen Laurence shared.
My one word review? Yum. It was perfect with grilled cheese sandwiches and it tastes exactly like a fall soup should. I am patting myself on the back for having discovered such a delicious way to get some calcium, vitamin A, and beta carotene into my kids.
I am a big fan of pumpkin flavors in the fall,... READ MORE
