As parents, I think we have our own expectations on the things we want our children to remember as they grow older. I know when we took our two oldest children to Disneyland, we took them at ages 10 and 8 because we wanted them to remember everything from the trip.

But, as usual, kids remind you that it's truly the little things that matter. … [Read more...]
I don't like this salad. Seriously. But it's a favorite of my husband, who grew up with his grandmother making it for many of the holiday meals in their home. I figure that even if I am not a fan of something, I should still share it, considering that this is a family food blog. I'm nice like that. … [Read more...]

The thing about the carrot cakes she makes me if that we never save the recipe. Each year she goes on an internet search for a carrot cake that includes pineapple in it and I would imagine that each year it has been a different recipe. This year was no different. Wellie went on a search on her laptop and at … [Read more...]
