When parents are desperate for ideas for what to make for dinner (or lunch, or snack time), they want recipes from someone they trust, for food that tastes good, that doesn’t require a lot of fancy ingredients, and that the whole family can eat. Allergy-Friendly Food for Families is the ultimate resource.

My forties were most exciting, learning a new trade and re-entering the workforce in a high paying field, having opportunities to travel, attend conferences, lead groups of people and much more. At times I went to a gym during my lunch hour. At one point, there was an ice skating rink next to my office so I skated at lunch.

Fashion Without Guilt

MAY 27, 2010

So when I would usually have time to write post at lunch and throughout the day, that now is not possible. Still to come Independent Fashion Blogger's Social Influence Conference and I meet some of the biggest bloggers out there. So I have to wait till after work to write post, and as of late I have no time post I have been SO BUSY.

Plus, I am presenting at two conferences this month so I have to get ready for those. Sustainable Personal Finance tells us how they make healthy lunches from home and save. We also bring a homemade lunch every day and not only does it save us money but it also keeps our health in check. Going Frugal.

This week I also have a conference to attend and will be away for a few days. In the past most of the days activities were scheduled around where we were going for lunch and dinner. Now we are planning where to go after lunch at home or before dinner at home while bringing snacks with us.

I say pretty much because on Friday I had lunch at the conference. Total weight loss since start of program: 18.5 This was another week where I had some days away from home but this time I stayed on track, pretty much. It’s so much easier at home when I can control more how my food is cooked but eating out is a part of life!

The day started early with breakfast at the lovely Graylyn Conference Center. We had a delicious lunch and then got to make our own doughnuts and coffee beverages! Yesterday I told you all about Day 1 of my awesome trip to Krispy Kreme for their 2012 Blogger Summit at their headquarters in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Family Balance Sheet

SEPTEMBER 23, 2014

I can’t take credit for this phrase; I wrote it down at a blog conference a few weeks ago. It even rained for most of Saturday, but instead of sulking or complaining about the rain, we played games inside the camper, napped, walked in the rain, and ate ice cream cones for lunch. Stop chasing balance and start being present.
