El Monterey family dinners....a review
Nummy! I love taste testing new products! :) So, a while back, when a representative for El Monterey Foods contacted me, a "real mommy blogger", to see if my family would like to try some of their frozen dinners, my answer was, "of[...] |
After-work dinners for adults and kids that are healthful, satisfying for all family members and easy enough to get on the table at a reasonable hour!

I found a great way to get a crispy skin roast chicken. Basically; pan fry the whole chicken and pour flaming brandy over it before roasting. You can also use the juices at the bottom of the roasting tray to make a gravy. Pan fry the whole[...] |
More Office Follies
As if I hadn't just been slighted by the vending machine yesterday, today the microwave turned on me too. I had the brilliant idea to bring oats to work with me to cook in the microwave here. I wanted to make sure I wasn't late, and[...] |
