Pregnancy Week 15

[April 28]

So even though I’m technically now in my second trimester, the energy is far from flowing!  I’m still tired all the time. But my nausea is totally gone (except for a serious susceptibility to car sickness). And I’m growing like crazy. At this rate this baby is going to be 25lbs! McClure’s Brooklyn pickles are [...]

Slowin It Down

[April 26]

Hi all, In the interest of being ernest, I wanted to take this post to explain a little bit about what I’ve been feeling and why my posting has been a bit sporadic… Let me start by saying that this blog and all of you readers really means so much to me.  It’s enriched my [...]

Roasted Tomato Soup

[April 25]

A couple weeks ago (as usual) we had a jam packed weekend.  I was juggling my niece’s birthday party, an overnight stay at my parents’, a family party at Richie’s parents’ house, and at the end of it all guests at home for dinner Sunday evening.  I needed something that I could prepare early in [...]

Pregnancy Week 14

[April 22]

The belly is growing like crazy it feels like.  When I’m lying down to sleep on my side I’m totally weighted down by it.  Crazy! I’m not as hungry as I was, but I am still getting a little weak and dizzy feeling once in a while. Haven’t been sleeping too great either.  So glad [...]

FEED 2 Kenya Bag

[April 21]

Sorry again for the quiet day yesterday.  Just got home and still recovering from all the moving around, cooking, family time, and general craziness. I did though get a superspecial present from my amazing Aunt Bonnie this week though.  She ordered my birthday present in October for my birthday in November, but unfortunately due to [...]

Sorry! Passover Got in the Way

[April 19]

So I know it’s been a little quiet around here and today’s gonna be a little light too.  Sorry!  I’ve been cooking and familying like crazy this Passover holiday and doing my best to keep my eyes open through it all. I’ll post soon about all the goodies I’ve been cooking up (and some from [...]

Pregnancy Week 13

[April 15]

So…the nuchal went really well and the bloodwork (it’s a two part test) also came back all good.  What they’re looking for at the nuchal scan is the skin behind the baby’s head.  Depending on the thickness they determine the risk of the baby having downs syndrome.  Our baby’s measurement was 1.3 and you’re looking [...]

Darbster, West Palm Beach

[April 14]

Last night we went out to dinner here in Florida with our friends Casey and Michael to a vegan restaurant called Darbster. We always have the best time with them and literally talk all the way through the parking lot until we get into our separate cars are are forced to stop! Last time we [...]

Raspberry Peanut Butter Bars

[April 13]

With all this sunshine and hot hot weather here in Florida, I’ve been feeling like eating way lighter than usual.  Salads and berries and summer foods all the way. We had some raspberries around the house so I decided to make a version of these for the week.  I amended the recipe to include some [...]
