December 17, 2015 by jlpenner Leave a Comment

Are you roasting your veggies yet? If not, you should be.  There are so much better than steaming or boiling could ever be. I’ll be honest.  I am NOT a huge veggie lover. I never have been.  I was that kid who could barely choke down the two green beans my mom put on my plate. Since then, I’ve improved, but a lot of it is due to simply figuring out how to make vegetables taste better (without slathering them {Read More}

December 10, 2015 by jlpenner Leave a Comment

  There have been years for us where the Christmas budget has been very small of non existent. And to be honest, I look back on those years fondly.  They were a great lesson that the holidays are not about how much money you spend, but the people you spend them with. 1. Gіvе уоur tіmе.
