A Family Message Board

Just updated our message board again recently and thought you may like to take another look at it.  I first wrote about it in a series on heading Back to School in 2012.  This is a favorite part of our kitchen.  The chalkboard always has a positive quote and our afternoon helpers chart.  These are jobs that […]

Friday Favorites

Happy Valentine’s Day and Happy Weekend.  It’s a week off of school for the kids here.  What will we do with ourselves with all our free time?  Cook a little, play a little, ski a little, who knows all we’ll be up to this week. For now, here is one of my favorite love sonnets, […]

Chicken Enchiladas

Sorry friends.   I shared this one on Instagram a while ago and never got it up for you.  Better late than never. This may possibly be one of my most simple family meals.  It is definitely one of the few that EVERYONE enjoys. You can add it to the list of meals I make […]
