Food, Family, and Lifestyle
Just because I have not posted a fitness friday in a while, does not mean you can slack off. You haven’t right? Good. In case it is a bit difficult to get your behind to the gym this weekend, I thought I would share some tunes that make me get up and go…..even if it…
I made this recipe a few weeks ago and it was a huge hit. As in, both kids and the hubby demanded more before bed kind of hit. I think this recipe would normally feed six but in this instance, it fed three people twice. I only had the taste test samples. This time I…
You may recall that I used to post a series called ‘EatingWell Wednesday’ featuring recipes from EatingWell Magazine. I am at it again today with my adaptation of their Wine Braised Chicken.
