Cheddar Bay Biscuits Recipe
We don’t make a habit of eating out too often, because it’s way cheaper (not to mention healthier in most cases) to make our own food! However, when we do eat out, one of our favorite places is Red Lobster! Cheddar Bay Biscuits are a huge part of this decision! I try to limit myself to one or two as…

Learning to Live or Living to Learn | Labels & Boxes
About one year ago, everything I thought I knew started to change. Many of my beliefs and ideas about life, living, children & more started to instead become questions… I started researching everything from natural living to different parenting styles, & everything in between. After many hours of reading, watching videos, asking questions in forums, & observing those who lived…

Learning to Live or Living to Learn | Education
When I had my first child, who is turning 10 years old next month (oh Mylanta, where does the time go?), I was in a very different place than I am now. Understandably so… Nevertheless, I honestly, like most young parents, didn’t know what I was doing! At 17 years old, I knew very little about the world, relationships, child-rearing,…

Let Thy Food be Thy Medicine
Confession: I used to silently giggle at coworkers who lovingly called their diets a lifestyle, and I now admire such dedication and strive to better myself and improve my family’s overall health and environmental footprint. There are still some things that I’m not completely sold on when it comes to revamping our diets and way of life, but I am…

“Super Bowlness” Wings
Not quite as saucy as the final product should look…. I think this was near the end of the batch! First of all, I hope you’re wearing socks while reading this, because they are about to get knocked off. And, if you’re not wearing socks, well, I don’t know what will happen… so please go get some socks… I’ll wait……

Back to Basics | Homesteading in Today’s World
When most people hear things like cloth diapering, homemade soaps, and home remedies replacing conventional medicine, they think back to stories maybe their parents or grandparents told… A simpler time, when you couldn’t just hop in your gas-guzzling sports car and drive 30 feet to the nearest shop for pretty much anything, when men brought home the bacon and women…

Modern Day Holocaust – The Tragedy of the ProChoice Movement
Imagine with me here, it’s 1895, middle of the summer, you’re walking down the street, and you hear a small child crying out. You look around, and quickly spot a house ablaze, with a young boy, who couldn’t be more than 5 or 6, tears running down his cheeks, in the upstairs bedroom window. “Please help me, I don’t want…

Coupons | To Have and to Hold
I’ve never been one to stick with hobbies/activities for very long. I don’t know if it’s lost interest, lost motivation, or sheer lazyness… but in my 26 years, I’ve tested quite a few waters, and none of them were suitable to hold my interest! I’ve been through karate, flute playing, piano playing, cub scout leader, college, several fast food jobs…
