Do your days kinda look like this sometimes? Wild and crazy. Full of chaos. Children suctioned to each extremity. Does the idea of schlepping everyone into the restaurant make you want to weep openly in public? I have to admit that there are days…and last week I had one of those days. We’d been running…

This week I decided to take a break from my “mom’s favorite recipes” theme and share one of MY favorite recipes. I have been making this for most of my married life and my husband and kids eat it up like candy every time. I originally found it on allrecipes.com but have been making it for so…
Halloween is almost here and my kids are super excited. They’ve been begging to do a Halloween craft and my daughter suggested painting pumpkins.
