Grocery Breakdown: February 2018

March 6, 2019 Katy Leave a Comment

I don't know about where you live, but our weather in February was all over the place. Some days it was freezing, and we wanted soup. Some days it was nearly 80 degrees, and we wanted ice cream. My menu plans were still mostly in the winter weather mindset, but every now and then we changed things up. Saturday, February 2: Aldi $9.05 We needed mini peppers for making nachos as part of our Superbowl feast, and Jesse offered to go to the store for me. He grabbed a few extras … [Read more...]

2019 Day In The Life Of Our Homeschool

March 5, 2019 Katy 4 Comments

It's time for another day in the life of our homeschool! This was last Tuesday. I had worked at Dunkin' the night before and didn't get to bed until late. For those joining from Simple Homeschool, we are a family of 7. My husband Jesse is in his first year of a doctorate program, and our kids are Jonah (age 9), Matthew (age 7), Hannah (age 5), Elizabeth (age 4), and Sarah (age 1). Somewhere around 5:30am: Sarah starts whining AGAIN. I pull her into our bed for the third time since my … [Read more...]

Recipe: Instant Pot Mexi Rice

February 27, 2019 Katy Leave a Comment

I love my small appliances. My crockpot and my Instant Pot get lots of love. But during winter, it's really easy to fall into a soup rut. Now don't get me wrong - I love soup! But I like to make other yummy, hearty things in there too. And this Mexi Rice is the perfect base for a frugal and delicious burrito bowl. My husband really likes Chipotle bowls. But at $7 a pop, we can make something pretty close at home for way cheaper. Also, this recipe does not have cilantro in it because … [Read more...]

How We Do Homemade Pizza Night

January 30, 2019 Katy 2 Comments

Every week for awhile now, we have a family pizza night. Usually we also watch a movie together, but at the very least, we have some yummy food and spend some time together. Here's what pizza night currently looks like at our house. We currently usually make our pizza from scratch, and since we're still eating mostly gluten free, I make at least one if not both of our pizzas with a gluten free crust. So let's break down the components. First is the sauce. You can use any pizza … [Read more...]
