If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!My last post inspired me to write about artichokes.  I LOVE artichokes.  They are immensely healthy and filling and very yummy.  They're also easy to cook and fun to eat.  When I was pregnant with Maggie and had gestational diabetes [...]

One of the things Colin and I like to do together is shop for groceries.  We almost always do our grocery shopping together, since we both like the bright lights and colors and want to have some control over the food that comes home.  We like to spend time together, too, and it's a little bit [...]

Last night for our date we went to the Spring Home Show because a neighbor gave us free tickets.  We had a good time, although we had to say "no" to a lot of people.  There were at least two people who wanted us to pay our mortgage off their way (which they claimed meant [...]

Jamba Juice
Jim's Family Restaurant

On Friday for our date Colin and I went to The Mayan.  I mentioned earlier in my blog that I'd never been, and when Colin read that he was shocked and decided he had to take me (another perk of blogging).  I'd had a tough day and it was a huge relief to leave the [...]

Last night's date was memorable and I felt like everywhere we went something slightly creepy happened. 
First, we drove around aimlessly for a little while until we decided to stop at a Mac store to look at iPod covers to protect Colin's iPod from the abuse it endures from me, him, and two babies.  It was [...]

I found a useful tool today in Utah Diners Guide.  I wonder why it's not Utah Diner's Guide (with an apostrophe), though.  It seems to have a fairly comprehensive list of places to eat in Utah with reviews.  I think the reviews are probably all good because of the bias of being paid by the [...]

I mentioned Magleby's in my post last week, but we went again last night and had a fun experience with our gift certficate. 
I've been babysitting once a week for a lady down the street who has a son about Degen's age, and we've been debating a good compensation/trade and finally decided on her taking [...]

I got my haircut done yesterday and it was a pretty good experience. I ended up with chunky side-bangs (I'm not sure if I like having such a big chunk of bangs, but it'll grow back if I don't) and long layers. Kim, you'll be happy to hear that I kept all but about an [...]

I love breakfast foods. Muffins, french toast, pancakes, german pancakes, and popovers are all things I like to eat. Yogurt, orange juice, biscuits and gravy, pigs in a blanket, oatmeal, cold cereal, too. Pretty much any kind of egg is yummy–scrambled, fried, poached, sunny-side up, in a basket. I just don’t [...]
