Quick Breads #1 Zucchini Bread

*UPDATE – See this post about our new eating habits.(7/10/11)

Today begins my week of writing about quick breads. I love quick breads! They’re so…….quick. Not to mention easy, delicious, and quick. Did I mention quick? There are about a million different varieties of quick “breads.” This week I’m going to focus on sweet breads (today), muffins, pancakes, biscuits, and cornbread.

Quick Breads #1 Zucchini Bread — Zucchini Bread

We’re going to make Zucchini Bread today! I just love zucchini. You can do so much with it. It’s very nutritious. So that makes this sweet bread nutritious, right? Yes, right. When our family is overrun with zucchini during the summer, I make everything I can think of with zucchini in it. This just happens to be my favorite way to use it. It’s a Betty Crocker recipe. Betty is such a good cook. She really knows what she’s doing…..and she does it quick. [Read more…]

How to Boil Rice

Are you like me? Were your years marred by the fact that when you cooked rice, it always turned into a big ole blob in the pan when the water was finally gone? I hated cooking rice. The instant rice always stayed nice and pretty, but didn’t taste nearly as good as cooking regular long grain rice. Just how did Jackie Chan do it?

While scouring the internet for recipes one day, I came upon a different method for cooking rice. It sounded odd, but I was willing to try. It worked great! This will be my method for cooking rice from now until the Lord returns or I kick the bucket. I’m here to walk you through it so your life can be enlightened like mine! It’s so easy you’ll say “Well duh. Why didn’t I think of that?” [Read more…]

Meet Stacy – Home Management Expert

Managing a home is hard. It just is.

Wash the laundry! Cook the food! Oh wait, it has to be healthy food! And natural laundry detergent! And we should get to church on time! And I should be making sure my children are well rounded citizens and volunteering weekly at the soup kitchen!

Sometimes the enormity of it overwhelms you – and you FEEL like a failure.
But here’s the thing…feelings don’t mean jack squat.

You CAN’T manage your home based on your feelings – otherwise dinner will always consist of chocolate and coffee and no one will ever have clean socks.
You manage your home based on what you KNOW, not what you FEEL.

You CAN manage your home without it managing you – you just need simple solutions and tips for how to do it, because we all know, if it’s not easy, you won’t do it.

That’s where I come in.

Meet Stacy:

You will find things that serve you – not vice versa. Easy ideas for you to implement – because if things aren’t easy, we won’t do them.

In the midst of all of this, I also have a passion for helping work at home moms to get their home under control AND THEN take their business by the horns so they can rock that too. It’s not I can be a mom OR a lady boss. It’s AND. You can be a mom AND be a lady boss.

I’m here to show you how.

I’m bringing the FUN back to FUN-damentals!
