12 Days of Christmas, our holiday "bucket list" that makes our season stress free!

Years ago when our kids were younger (they are now 13, 15 and 19), we wanted to take the focus off of the retail madness that surrounds Christmas and the holidays.  Advertisers bring out the big guns during this season to entice kids and we, the consumers, are constantly bombarded with the idea we "need" a lot of stuff that we don't actually need.  We were tired of hearing the "I wants" and didn't want our kids coveting every new fangled toy, electronic or shiny-blinged-out-whatchamacallit.  Read more >

Dinner On the Cheap........Pork Adobo with Rice

This adobo is a Philippino version, it is great in the crockpot but can be done in the oven.  My kids go crazy for this and it only has a few ingredients.  It is a really tasty dish, if you prefer chicken it can be easily substituted. 1 pork roast, sized to fit your family. I usually use a 3-4 loin roast, I buy a four pack from Costco.2T olive oil32 oz chicken stock1 c. soy sauce1 c. cider vinegar3 bay leaves2 cloves of peeled garlic  Read more >

Dinner On the Super Cheap...Corn and Potato Chowder

This is an easy dinner I came up with when I was "cleaning out" my pantry, freezer and fridge. The family loved it and so I added it to our dinner rotation. In a sauce pot caramelize 1 chopped onion and 2 stalks of diced celery in 2T. butter. Bacon, sausage or pancetta can be added and browned or you can keep it vegetarian. To this add 4-6 potatoes cubed into bite size pieces and just cover with water or chicken broth. Add 2 bay leaves and seasoning. Avoid salt, it is just absorbed by the potato and will be needed again at the end.  Read more >

About Me: 

I have been married to my highschool sweetheart for an eternity and have three beautiful kids that keep us on our toes. The 'baby" just turned thirteen, it is a strange feeling to realize we are parents of TEENAGERS! I have been a stay at home mom for most of their lives with a year here or there at different jobs. I've done just about anything and everything to make a few extra dollars from home, from Pampered Chef, mystery shopping, paper routes, childcare to selling refurbished antiques and furniture at our local antique mall.  These days I am a stay at home auntie to my precious infant niece.

I love just about anything to do with home-making, with the exception of LAUNDRY! bluk! I hate everything about laundry ;)

Hoping to make some new "friends" and think I have some great stuff to offer.

Happy Blogging!
