Italian Chicken Bake

January 5, 2012 by growin49_wp

Italian Chicken Bake

This recipe is modified from the back of the Heart Smart Bisquick box. The look and taste are like a chicken pizza. It is a recipe for two, so you would need to adjust it for your family size. 1/3 cup Heart Smart Bisquick (though I would guess any such baking mix would suffice) 2 Tbsp. Sour cream (2 eggs if you don't have a child with an … [Read more...]

The Difference a Day Makes

Yesterday We were supposed to be napping. Instead, Dietrich wanted to play, after all, he is three. As he played with the pillows, blanket, and my hands, I found myself staring at my reflection in his eyes. I then began to wonder how this darling child sees me. Lately, I’ve been preoccupied with my own loss, feeling down (the Germany cloudy, foggy … [Read more...]

My Grief

November 1, 2011 by growin49_wp

My Grief

My grief is my own, no one else’s. It is not right or wrong, nor should anyone judge me for the way I am doing it. My loss, even if we have similar experiences, is not your loss. If you don’t have a similar experience you cannot definitively say what you would think, do, feel, etc. in my place. On October 26, after a few days of spotting, and one … [Read more...]

Pizza Meatloaf

January 7, 2011 by growin49_wp

Pizza Meatloaf

This is an older Weight Watchers recipe with some modifications for my family's needs. My toddler is allergic to eggs, so I've had to make several adjustments, just in case he decides to eat what Mommy is eating. I love this recipe because it's simple to prepare, freeze, then bake at a later time. With my ingredients and portions, this recipe … [Read more...]
