My son, Morgan’s, favorite place to eat in our home town is a place called “Musashi Japanese Restaurant”. It’s one of those places where the chef cooks all the food in front of you and usually does some sort of show along with it–making a volcano out of a stack of onions, flipping eggs so…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1.Cooking Class–Morgan asked me to teach him how to make his favorite rice this week. When I finally picked my jaw up off the floor (he never wants me to teach him anything), I gladly showed him how to make Fried Rice. His secret…
My two children–like many of yours–are having to endure days and days of state testing at their school right now. Our PTO decided to bless our kids with an extra breakfast to give their brains an added fuel boost. My younger son Grayson is a fanatic for anything free food or snacks (who isn’t?!) and…

We have tacos at least once a week at our house–but not always on Tuesdays. To be honest, I think Super Rockstar could just rotate Taco’s, Spaghetti and Fried Chicken and be just fine. I know what you’re thinking–“I know how to make taco’s–it’s really not that hard.” That’s true. It is easy. But no–you…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1. Spring Break. Our school’s spring break always occurs exactly in between my boys birthdays. So, in the middle of all the chaos of birthday traditions and parties we managed to squeeze in a few fun activities. This year the weather was just beautiful–it…
A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1. Fieldtrip. I got to go on a fieldtrip with my younger son, Grayson, to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science.

A weekly list of things accomplished, enjoyed, learned, tried and remembered. 1. Bomb Cyclone. No matter where you live in the USA, you probably have heard about the “Bomb Cyclone” that hammered down on several states this past week.
