Work Hard, Play Hard…Struggle Hard ?

Dealing with the Effects of Being a Weekend Warrior, Full-time Worker & Nonstop Worrier If anyone out there is following along with my blog, I don’t want y’all to think I’m just a surly parent, eating and rocking my way through life. I wish I could just do that. That’s not my M.O. though. My […]

No-Fail French Toast

This recipe is bare-bones but always comes out fantastic! Ingredients: Sliced bread (I use Italian, but use whatever you have on hand. My mom used to use Wonder bread and it kept me happy.) Eggs (# depends on how much bread you’re using. I do one egg per slice of bread) Splash of milk (you […]
