So, we have this faithful follower/friend/superstar/hot mama named “Reb” who sent us a request asking for ideas for keeping the tots happy in her travels. “Or so she says…” to the rescue! This is for you, Reb! Thanks for the request, we love hearing what you might need an idea for! (And that goes for […]
Chicken Pot Pie, Oh So Easy!
I love me some comfort food! And chicken pot pie is no exception! This recipe is so easy, so versatile, and so good! I actually make 3 pies with this recipe and freeze two of them for another day. One pie comfortably feeds 4 adults and a couple picky children. You will need: 4 boneless […]
Cajun Chicken Pasta
This Cajun Chicken Pasta is sooo good, even my kids will eat it (and that’s saying a lot!)(Adapted from a recipe I found on Recipe Zaar’s site a while back…got rave reviews!) To make this you will need some B.S. chicken breasts (sliced into thin strips), linguine noodles, Cajun seasoning, green onion, heavy whipping cream, […]
10 April Fool’s Day Pranks for Parents
So, I recently gave you the scoop on who the schmell St. Patrick is (was). Now we are faced with another holiday that is at least equally mind-boggling. Where did April Fool’s Day come from?? Way back when, in France, about 1582, Columbus sailed the ocean blue. Ha! Wouldn’t you like to think I was […]

Dating Your Kids (she: Reb)
I’m Reb. Mother of four wild and wonderful (young) sons. I never imagined myself fostering and nurturing four male offspring. It’s takes courage to try to turn these little men into respectable Men some day. But here I am. My partner in this journey is my Shmoopy. I keep a daily record of our hilarious […]
Soft Pretzels (St. Patrick’s Day Style…)
There are some carb-splurges that are totally worth it. One of them being soft homemade pretzels (others: chocolate molten cake, maple donuts, and fettuccini alfredo) How ’bout turning these fellas into clovers to jazz up St. Patrick’s Day! Remember to start making these at least a couple hours before you need them because they have […]
EASY Key Lime Pie
In honor of St. Patrick’s day, (thanks to Mariel, we now know who he is) I made a green key lime pie. I told you I don’t bake and desserts aren’t my forte unless you can make them in under 20 min. This one took me 7 min from start to finish! Im serious! Here […]
All About St. Patrick’s Day
The other day, I was lying in bed wondering why we celebrate St. Patrick’s day in America…and who exactly is this St. Patrick fellow? I fired up the laptop and read about St. Patrick’s Day until I turned blue (wished it was green). Wanna hear the scoop?? (Mariel style…) So, this dude Patricus (otherwise […]
Chinese Chicken Salad
In honor or Jessica’s post about eating healthy foods (cabbage being one of them), and St. Patrick’s Day (I know it’s a stretch but cabbage IS green…) I thought I would share my recipe for Chinese Chicken Salad. And, I must say…I think this recipe is better than the similar ones out there. I like […]
