Today was a beautiful, mellow day. Perfect for a long walk to, around and back from Lake Nokomis, which, according to Google Maps, is 4.0 miles on the dot. It took us about an hour to complete our walk, as we made an extended pit stop at the swings along the water. Matthew and I…
Road Rash and Breakfast Bakes
For those of you who follow me on Twitter or are friends with me on Facebook, you most likely saw me live tweeting Allan’s 7 hour long visit to the HCMC ER last night. Allan was on his way home from work on a road that was repaved and graveled earlier that day. He took…
Boys in Blue
Since I began clean eating, I searched high and low for a scone recipe that was whole grain, low sugar and low fat while still keeping the thick, crunchy, cakey texture of my beloved coffee house baked goods. About year ago, Dani Spies posted a recipe for blueberry scones and I immediately made the recipe….

Just a quick post to let you know that I updated the Recipes tab with all of the recipes that I have posted here on MMM along with all of my recipes from Simply Clean. The following are a few of my favorites that you should definitely try tomorrow. 🙂 Overnight Oats Purple Pride Smoothie…
Cuppa Joe
Allan is usually caffeine-free. This post is not. Lately we have had several late nights and early mornings in a row coupled with the intoxicating smell of freshly ground organic Caribou coffee, so, for good reason, Allan has been enjoying a single cup o’ joe with breakfast. When I did our monthly meal plan, I…
Let Freedom Ring
As promised, I finally got around to unloading, sorting and editing the photos that we took during our cabin retreat. The Fourth of July festivities included Matthew’s first parade, chicken gyros from a sidewalk vendor, swimming in Leech Lake, catching a Muskie and a potluck supper with friends who are like family. Here is a photo…
Two Spoons Are Better Than One
Lately Mister Matthew has been on a utensil kick. If he sees a fork or a spoon he must have it and use it to consume whatever masterpiece that I make for him. The other day he insisted upon feeding himself leek soup with a spork and a spoon. This was the resulting mess. Not…
Deadman Lake
Welcome to the Peters Pagoda on Deadman Lake. Where cats are strung from the rafters… It is considered an insult to wear make-up… Cooking is a bold adventure… Air conditioning and running water are lavish luxuries… And lounging on the lanai is considered a day’s work. The following is a photo tour around our family’s…
Back to the Grind
We arrived back in Minneapolis last night and I have been nonstop sorting, organizing, laundering, working and shopping since we arrived. It’s amazing the amount of things that need to be done when you are away for 6 days! I plan to make a more detailed post about our time at the cabin; however, I…
