I used to eat brownies for breakfast. I know, we all eat unhealthy things for breakfast every now and and then, but I used to have Brownies appeared as a regular feature on my breakfast menu.

We are a family of nine, and not surprisingly everyone likes to eat. Whereas I used to be a drive thru queen, these days we rarely eat out. That leaves two options – either everyone is one their own, which isn’t practical, or someone has to cook. Fortunately, over the years I have moved from [...] If you had asked me how often I was hungry when I was an obese, 300 pound, size 28 woman I would have said, “ALL THE TIME!” Because I thought I felt hunger all day long.

Ever.” Or even worse still, [...] You know it’s coming so let’s get prepared for the 4th of July holiday this weekend.

Other times it was just a funny little something she picked [...] In a lot of families Sunday morning is a time of sleeping in, reading the paper, and relaxing. For us, early Sunday morning is not always the most relaxing time of the week. With seven children, a dog, and a cat, John and I spend a lot of time bouncing around like ping pong balls [...] |
