Celebrate The Small Things: February 19, 2016



Celebrate the Small Things is hosted by Lexa Cain along with wonderful co- hosts Writing Off The Edge and The Cyborg Mom.

I have spent much of this week wishing that I could cower under my bed due to a massive migraine from mother natures mood swings.  My blog as well as my work life has taken a direct hit and nothing has gotten done all week so I am mostly just celebrating that nothing is actually on fire.

Also I am super caught up on my pen paling so I am just waiting for mail which is always something to celebrate.

What are you celebrating this week?

    Oh no!!! I've only had migraines a few times in my life and they were brief. They lasted a few hours at most. I don't know how those who have ones that last longer do it...they're horrible!

    Migraines are the worst. They bring everything to a halt. I hope yours goes away soon!

    Sorry to hear you are under the weather. I have been too. Dang cold season! But it's great news about the pen paling! I used to do that too and enjoyed it so much. Have a great week ~Lori~

Making Mac and Cheese

Image
One of my favorite vegetables is butternut squash so when Chatelaine  posted this yummy looking recipe  for mac and cheese brimming with squash I immediately pinned it to make at a later time.  Now, before Pinterest  I am willing to admit, recipes got saved in my e-mail, but they never got made.  They just got lost in the shuffle; now they get neatly organized and displayed where I can go through them on a regular basis.  More importantly than that I can try them.   This recipe worked out well for me, I thought the cheese and squash tasted great together, the kids however did not agree.  They like their squash on the side, where they can control how much they ingest.  Next time I will definitely use less breadcrumbs though.

M is for Motherhood

This morning on my way to work I read this post from a YMC blogger and it got the wheels turning in my little brain.  First of all, why are people so mean to each other?  And second, the vast number of times I have want to set the  feral little animals  kids who call me mom at the end of the driveway with free to good home signs round their necks. The truth is though, in the moment, when there are a bottle full of snails loose in your apartment and sliming their way over everything while your son sleeps. (no lid, he thought they would stay in on the honor system)  Yes, I wanted to put him and the snails out to sleep in the yard.  After much, much yelling.  But it's a little bit funny no?  I have to admit it, then it wasn't, but now my reaction when I picked up his school bag and discovered it was writhing with snails....freaking hilarious.  The fact that he honestly thought they would stay in the bottle, adorable.  The l...
