It looking like it was going to be a dreary, rainy day on Saturday so I thought I would make some Play Dough (Playdoh) for my two year old daughter, Ysabella. I remember at least one occasion that m mom made homemade play dough for me when I was growing up and I think it’s imprinted in my brain that ‘it’s a mom thing to do’. I’ve made play dough a couple times myself: one time I was playing Cranium and we realized the... 

Let me preface this by saying that I really don’t have that bad of skin. Definitely no acne or anything. I just noticed that my usually clear and smooth skin had started to change a lot after having my baby a couple years ago. I get the odd pimple – which is really annoying at 27 years old, let me tell you! But my biggest complaint is that I’ve developed little bumps under the skin.

She gets to play with other kids and pick up a little Japanese from her daycare provider and I get to...

My husband LOVES pumpkin pie! I can’t stand it – which made it especially fun to make over this past Thanksgiving weekend because he knows it’s especially for him. I actually made two pies, two different recipes – the better recipe I will reproduce in this post. The first was for him to eat over the course of the weekend. He leaves a fork in the pie dish and takes a bite whenever he goes in the kitchen. He even had some for...
