Weekend time! I’m am pretty excited for this weekend because Matt and I are getting a little 24-hour staycation in the city. Without L. This is actually going to be my very first night without him since he was born over 16 months ago. Kind of crazy! I know I’ll miss him a lot but…
Fluffernutter Cookies
Posted on February 26, 2016
Soft and chewy peanut butter cookies sandwiched together with marshmallow buttercream. It’s been a long time since I've had a fluffernutter sandwich, but the memories of soft white Wonder Bread slathered with creamy Skippy (most definitely not all natural) and sweet marshmallow fluff are still vivid in my mind. Everything just melded together in one…

Brown Sugar Caramel Pear Crisp
Posted on February 19, 2016
Warm caramel pear crisp topped with a crisp oatmeal topping is perfect the cold late winter days. Every February I get that feeling that Spring isn’t too far away. And while in some parts of the states that is probably true, here in the Northeast we don’t get real spring weather until close to May.…

As we navigate through the challenge that is the transition from two naps to one, things are definitely improving. L’s at least willing to nap in his crib, it’s just not for nearly as much time as I’d like. So dramatic, isn’t it? Before being a mom I never understood why parents would obsess over…
