The Life of an Adoptive & Twin Mom
I recently received an email announcing new Werther’s Original Baking Caramels, and asking if I’d be interested in hosting a Mommy Party. Initially I hesitated. We just moved to Indiana and I don’t have too many friends here. But, then I thought what a great way to get to know the parents of Zadey’s new […]
I love fall. There’s something in the air that makes fall magical, and if there’s anything that will inspire me to cook. It’s going to be fall and the cooler temperatures. My first time preparing fresh butternut squash was not that long ago. In fact, I made it for the boys to eat from a […]

Oliver always sits in the middle seat, in my car, and sister always sits next to him. Typically she will unbuckle him whenever we arrive someplace and this night, getting home, was no different.
