Preface

My name is Deirdre. I have good intentions for keeping up my blog. It has a funny way of not staying as updated as I'd planned though...

Back to Blogging

Okay, so I've been wanting to get back into the blogging world for awhile.  However, this has proven difficult with a baby who pretty much eats up ALL of my time.  He pretty much freaks every time I try to get real typing done.  The last two nights he has actually *gasp* SLEPT for a couple of hours, without me, and allowed me to get actual adult things done! 

So.  Here's my new blog.  It's about me and my life.  I'm blessed beyond my wildest dreams.  Hence the new title.  I will be blogging about my Mommy Adventures and things that I'm passionate about.  I've also taken a renewed interest in cooking, so there will be a lot of writing about FOOD.

Here's why I'm passionate about food.  My babe will be six months in no time...like at the end of the month.  If you know me, you know I exclusively breastfeed him.  You will also know I'm extremely proud of this!  We've decided to pursue the Baby Led Weaning route.  In a nutshell:  Skip purees and go straight to feeding the baby regular table food.  I'll go more into that later though.

This week we've been eating vegetarian.  Here's the menu for the week:
  • Black Bean Burritos 
  • Falafel with Cilantro-Yogurt dressing 
  • Goat Cheese/Beet/Spinach Ciabatta
  • Black Bean Burgers
  • Vegetable Moo Shu
My goal is to cook as much as possible from scratch, thus eliminating as many extra "filler" and chemicals from our food.  This came about because a) I've always been overly conscience of the crappy stuff in processed foods and b) now that baby will be eating food, I only want to give him the absolute best. 

 So anyways.  Welcome to my blog.  I hope you are entertained and learn a little here and there!
