I have a LOT on my plate during any given day:

Taking care of my kids: 23mo boy and 3.5yo girl
Working on my school work as I attempt to complete a two-year Masters degree program in one-year

Blogging encouragement to women
Attempting to keep my house clean and my husband fed

By the time dinner rolls around, I’m pretty beat. I don’t want to spend much time in the kitchen at the end of a tiring day, and yet I don’t want to pay a hefty price for carry-out food. My solution? Quick, easy, and inexpensive pantry meals. [Read more...]

Turns out both my friend and I were thinking of making a spaghetti dish, because that’s what we had ingredients for. I’ll have to eat her version sometime. Here’s mine (actually a recipe my mom has made for years).

The other day while I was thinking about Disney World, I started looking through recipes on AllEars.Net. Deb has an excellent collection of recipes for foods that are served in various WDW restaurants. I made note of several that I want to try, including this meatloaf which is served at the 50s Prime Time Cafe in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The meatloaf was easy to make, flavorful and moist. As a bonus, it made so much I turned it into two loaves and froze one for another time.
