It snowed in UT again yesterday, so I am heading off for some fun in the sun this weekend. I can’t wait to soak up some rays by the pool and hopefully get some sun on these pale, pale legs. I have never NOT had a tan line before…it’s wild to not have one anywhere! … Read more

I like nice restaurants as much as the next guy, but sometimes when you are traveling…especially with kids and a family, you just want some good cheap street food or a hearty meal that is delicious and doesn’t break the bank.

Many of my favorite recipes for delicious salads happen to be from Nordstrom Cafe. In Orange County, my local Nordstrom is about a 5 minute drive, so I make sure to plan frequent visits for lunch when I’m there. In Salt Lake, our closest Nordstrom isn’t to much much further, but what I find interesting … Read more

An ice cream party is a timeless classic perfect for any occasion. I remember back when I was in elementary school they used to have an ice cream sundae party every year at open house.

A small city with personality to spare, New Orleans is a lively city full of more food, history, music and culture than most cities many times it’s size.

Over Labor Day weekend we decided to make a last minute family trip to the town of Jackson, WY. I had been to Jackson Hole, Wyoming many, many years ago as a kid when my family passed through on their way to Yellowstone National Park, but I didn’t remember much, and the rest of my … Read more

As a little girl growing up in Southern California, the Matterhorn was always a symbol of Disneyland to me.

The kitchen truly is the heart of the home. When it came to designing the 1987 fixer upper kitchen remodel it really needed to be the center of everything in this formerly 1980’s style house. It had been a very nice, functional kitchen, but one that was also a bit cut-off from the family spaces … Read more

That usually led to eating out and no need to meal plan. One of my New Year’s resolutions this year is to make cooking … Read more
