It’s Friday. I’m not doing a Frugal Friday post today. Why? Because we’ve been invaded by a virus and I’ve been busy tending to two sick little boys. Not only have I not had time to sit down and write, but financial planning just really isn’t on my mind right … Continue reading
We are still snowed in. Well, actually, we’re ICED in, which is worse. Theoretically, we could leave the house.

So, remember when I shared my “vegan” creamy chicken soup and said the cream base would probably pop up again? Well, POP! With a few additions, it turned out to be the perfect “cheese” sauce for a vegan Mac ‘n Cheese! So here’s what I did: Once again, you’ll start with … Continue reading
…or so says my husband! When I posted the recipe for my quinoa pasta noodles I commented that they went great with my homemade spaghetti sauce. One of the comments on that post requested the recipe for the sauce, so here it is! (This is for you, Katherine!) It’s … Continue reading
