Flu season is in full swing and I have been trying my best to keep my kids away from people that have the sniffles. Since September, my toddler has already been sick 4 times, and I’m hoping she will be healthy the rest of the school year. I don’t like seeing my little girl so uncomfortable with a fever and sniffles, but we all know that is a part of childhood! Good thing we always have some Kleenex on hand! Children seem to bounce right back ...

Are there scents that remind you of the holidays? Cinnamon and Apple always remind me of the holiday season, and before I figured out that I was allergic to candles, I would always burn a cinnamon and apple candle in my home. It made my city apartment so much cozier and reminded me of holidays at my moms house with a blanket of snow on the ground and the fireplace burning inside the house. Isn’t it amazing how a scent can transport you to a ...

November is National Bread Month!
My toddler is a semi-picky eater. I count my blessings each time she asks me for a bowl of broccoli or a piece of spinach pie, but then there are other moments when she is completely put off by food and will only eat certain things. I guess I can't complain too much, but I still have to think of appetizing and nutritious meals for her everyday, whether she it is a picky day or not. Now that she is in preschool, lunch is a lot more involved ...
Have Fun While Learning How to Cook With #SarasCookingClass
You're not going to believe this:I just learned how to make a bolognese sauce by playing a game. NO JOKE! I found out about a new game, , and poked around a bit.

Scrabble Catch Phrase Giveaway!
Ever since I became pregnant with my first baby and banned from the NYC night scene, family game nights started in my home. I was fortunate to have some friends and relatives that had no problem spending a Friday evening in playing games, but in reality I think they just came for the great food that this preggo was craving and serving! I was always a horrible Scrabble player, so that game would never come out of the closet. I'm very good with ...
