Mama Moe

My first WW, better ones to come!

When Mama Cooks Dinner:

1. Cook the full meal
2. Set the table
3. Get everyone their drinks

Today is my birthday, or I should say was my birthday since I am writing this after midnight as my family sleeps. It was a good one!

As many of you may have heard, I witnessed a strange thing on Easter Sunday.

I will be having a monthly free book draw with Usborne Books at Home.
For every book that you order through me (askmamamoe@yahoo.com for info), I will add one raffle ticket to the monthly draw. This month I will be giving away this fun story sticker book.

Can you get a hangover from a blog party?

It’s three days since the Ultimate Blog Party 2011 finished and I am still recovering…in a good way!

Ok, this is VERY new to me but I’m going to give it a go and then write a great review about it when it’s all done. 5MinutesforMom.com is hosting The Ultimate Blog Party that lasts days, not hours, and it’s going on right now!

Raising three children with healthy appetites can sometimes be challenging. Along with my husband and I, our dinners have to be,not just delicious, but available in a large quantity. So how do I manage? Well, I try to make 2-3 dinners a night when I’m cooking. One for that night, and two for freezing. And the things I freeze are not just one-night meals, they usually are big enough for two meals at least.

In my family, meat is BIG. That, and pasta. But sometimes, I’m all meat and pasta-ed out and I need something soothing and yummy. A couple of years ago I found a perfect recipe for butternut squash soup by Kathy Maister.

So this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship…with who? Only time will tell. For now I will make a few assumptions, generate some buzz, post some cool stuff and wait and see.
