No, not “free furniture”. Well, not yet, anyway. But keep your eyes open, because we may just give away our sofas in the near future! Until then, I want to share with you a very exciting new blog discovery. It’s called http://www.katysays.com, and the blogger is a biomechanist and mom who writes about healthy bodies,… Continue reading Furniture Free

Oh. My. Word. Woke up this morning and decided to exercise some breakfast creativity. While I was sick, Fireman seemed to have gone on a cold cereal binge.

Saturday, which is the end of the week for us, tends to be that way for me. I’m done. Order a pizza or miraculously produce some sort of delicious, healthy… Continue reading Quick Herby Prawn Pasta
