Zoodles
A couple months ago my friend posted the most amazing pasta dish on Instagram and as the likes were coming in, it came out in the comments that the noodles were in fact made from zucchini! Zoodles – zucchini not pasta! Isn’t that amazing? Turns out she made them with a Paderno Spiral Vegetable SlicerContinue reading “Zoodles”
Z Style – Hair Bows
My little Z is really into accessories right now, no shocker there. She’s always had a thing for shoes, but recently, we cannot leave the house without a bow in her hair – I agree with her, you always need a little something to accessorize your outfit, right? Well, let me tell you about bowsContinue reading “Z Style – Hair Bows”
Couple Things…
We went up to North Conway last weekend and my husband skied…and Z and I shopped for skis! We didn’t get her any, but she sure is excited to try “key-ing” next winter! While we were up there we visited our favorite MWV Children’s Museum – I highly recommend it if you’re in the areaContinue reading “Couple Things…”
Dry Weather Essentials
This is one of those weeks we are just trying to get through, know what I mean? Having a sick toddler who doesn’t act sick will do that to you – meaning, you can’t do any of your normal activities or leave the house really, but she still has the same amount of energy soContinue reading “Dry Weather Essentials”
Recipe Classic ~ Pot Roast

The first recipe classic I wanted to blog about is the pot roast recipe we make about once a month during the cold winter months. PotContinue reading “Recipe Classic ~ Pot Roast”
DIY St. Patrick’s Day T-Shirt
I am (mostly) Irish. And combined with my husband’s German and Italian genes, my Z is like 35% Irish. But not being 100% certainly doesn’t stop us from celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in style! We always celebrate with beer (although not me this year), food – making Irish soda bread and always Irish corned beef and cabbage, andContinue reading “DIY St. Patrick’s Day T-Shirt”
Couple Things…
Made these Four-ingredient Nutella Brownies – not only are they amazing-tasting, but your house will smell spectacular even after they’re out of the oven. I didn’t have walnuts and used pistachios on top instead. The perfect little ponytail, dontcha think? We started the Before Sunrise trilogy recently and I didn’t like it as much asContinue reading “Couple Things…”
Z Style – In Between Seasons
Ok, so we’re still in the heart of winter, but we’re all dreaming of spring, right? Well my little Z is too. When I pull out her big sweaters to wear, I get a “no, mommy!” Although hearing “no” from a toddler is par for course, so I can’t make too much of it, ha!Continue reading “Z Style – In Between Seasons”
