When I had Amelia, I realized quickly that one-handed foods are a must for any new mom. I really struggled with getting healthy foods in because I wasn’t able to sit down for a proper meal. So, my cousin, Carolyn, made these egg muffins for me and I’ve been making them ever since (even though […]
We BBQ most nights in the summer – it’s easy to cook and easy to clean-up. I like to make sure we change up what we’re eating each time, but one recipe we always make is Trevor’s Coleslaw. It’s a recipe he brought here from England and every time we make it, everyone raves about […]
