Helping your future self is not a new idea. In fact, I've heard several bloggers that I follow mention it fairly recently. The idea is to constantly be thinking of ways to make life easier for yourself in the future. When I'm feeling especially unmotivated, I try to think in terms of what "Future Katy" would want me to do right now. Would she be better off if I rested now? Then I'll do that. Would she have an easier time making dinner if I spent five minutes now washing the dishes from the … [Read more...]
Recipe: Oven Baked Cheesy Chile Chicken and Rice Casserole
Have you ever had a recipe that sounded really delicious in your head, but then it just didn't turn out? And then you tried again, and it still didn't turn out?

When I was growing up, we had appetizer dinner on Christmas Eve, where everyone got to pick one appetizer, and we feasted on all of them put together. This was a choice sometimes. I also remember it being there at various baby showers and family gatherings, although I'm not sure exactly where it … [Read more...]
Recipe: Gluten Free Shortbread Bars

When I think of Christmas, I usually think of some sort of shortbread cookie. I don't know why - we never had shortbread while I was growing up. But it just seems like it fits with the holiday season. Shortbread was actually originally made at least partially with oats, so you would think I would have gone in that … [Read more...]
