What Type Of Mom Am I?
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.
Or rather, what type of mom would my boys say I am? I would like my kids to say I’m the fun loving mom who laughs when they get muddy, who gets on the floor and plays with them, who involves them in all that goes on. I am that mom… about 15% of the time. It’s likely they will say I’m the mom that rushes around busy working and pushing them aside so I can get done with that task […]

Paper… Piles and piles of paper. Pretty sure the trees are crying! Anyone else feel like their desk/office area just overflows with paper?

Easy White Chicken Chili Soup Supreme
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.
Growing up, cornbread and chili was a staple. A pound of hamburger could feed a family with 6 kids thanks to all the beans. We may have ran each other out of the house and singed nose hairs once the beans “came calling” but we all loved chili! Oddly enough, it hasn’t been until recent years that I even heard of white chicken chili. But now, we almost prefer this easy white chicken chili over regular chili. Ever been in […]

Sometimes we find gluten substitutes like gluten free pasta, and sometimes we just do without it! These chipotle cinnamon sliders are fantastic and don’t even need bread. Serve them up on a leaf of lettuce and enjoy! Last month I found a recipe for chipotle cinnamon sliders and thought the combination sounded amazing. I tweaked the recipe a bit, cut way back on the cinnamon (did they really mean 2 tbs. for only a pound of meat?), and added a […]

I should’ve taken a photo. This plant randomly popped up in our garden last spring and we let it grow… into a butternut squash that took over a good 1/3 of the garden and produced dozens of squash. So let’s just say my roasted butternut chicken recipe is a result of a bumper crop of squash! Even after giving tons of squash away, I still have a lot left in the garage and was trying to figure out how to […]

Diet Mistakes and Teaching Compassion
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.Hey everyone! I know it sounds cheesy and we all pretty much feel this way every month, but I’m still going to say it, “November? Already? WHAT happened to September? and October. Honestly, I enjoy being busy but that seems to make time fly faster than ever, and I don’t enjoy that! At any rate, it’s already November and that means less than 2 months until Christmas.

This post is sponsored by EzPacking, but all opinions are my own. Jason and I have always enjoyed travel, and prior to having kids, packing an organized suitcase was easy. He had his and I had mine. Mine stayed nice, his was a messy pile after just a day. Then we had kids. They haven’t (so far) infringed on our love of travel. In fact, my 2 year old wakes up most mornings asking “go bye-bye soon?”. Since we have […]
