Black Bean and Salsa Sloppy Joes

Tried a little something different last night in the Miller household. We took part in a Meatless Monday!!! I was skimming through a Parenting magazine one evening and saw this a recipe for Black Bean and Salsa Sloppy Joes. The photo looked so delicious and it seemed so easy to make so of course I tore out the recipe and put it in my "to make pile" of recipes.

Now normally this recipe would have gotten lost in the shuffle or would have never made the next test, which is Chris approving of the meal selection. Don't get him wrong, he will eat almost anything I make and he doesn't actually dictate the meals in our house, but it is nice to have him make the meal selections from time to time to keep the guessing work out of my realm.

So, this past weekend I gave him a stack of new recipes that I have been wanting to try and told him to pick one. He actually picked the Vegetarian option. I was shocked, but excited at the same time!!! It looked so good and I was excited to break out and make something we normally wouldn't make. Needless to say, since I am posting about it, he loved it and so did I.


Serves 4: In a skillet, heat 2 tsp olive oil over medium heat. Add 3 minced garlic gloves and saute for 1 minute. Stir in 2 1/2 cups rinsed and drained canned black beans, one 15 oz jar chunky salsa, 1 tbsp each brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1/2 tsp cumin and 1/4 tsp salt. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Spoon onto whole-wheat buns and top with shredded cheddar cheese.

Sloane's 1st Easter

You would think that every major holiday that comes our way for Sloane is like going to the Grammy's for her. I mean the thought and effort I put into every outfit is a bit ridiculous. Should I really care though? Well at the moments of trying to pick her dress out I was stressed to the max. I'm pretty sure there should be a pill for the amount of stress one can have over their daughter's 1st Easter dress.  Oh well, I however, love it and don't care that I stress about little stuff!! It doesn't make me a bad parent. It just means I care and it means a lot to me to see her cute and happy. I have been waiting for moments like this for quite sometime now. I always imagined dressing up my baby girl in the cutest dresses that not only reflect her personality, but a bit of myself as well.

Needless, to say the outfit was just as perfect as she is. Sample here.
I especially love the fact that she looks a bit like a bunny herself with the teeth she has. Ha!!!

I slaved over her Easter basket along with some goodies for my niece and nephews. I was a bit pinterest inspired and made carrots using a pasty bag, gold fish and some green string. I then made s'mores using peeps instead of traditional marshmallows. They turned out really cute, but I think I cared more about them than the kiddos. Here is what the Easter basket looked like.
You can see she is also ready for the beach with a swim suit, matching swim hat, cover up, jelly sandals and some fun sunglasses.

Here are some more fun photos from the day...
Grace playing peek a boo with cousin Sloane. Grace gets her to laugh the best!!! She has some serious skills when it comes to peek a boo!!!

 Bobby hunting for those eggs. He had to help out little brother Henry, (below) and cousin Sloane.

 Henry doesn't care for what is in the eggs he just wants to pick up rocks and put them in his mouth.

Pink For All Sizes

If you now me at all, you know I have a love for the color pink. Always have, and always will!!! You can imagine the excitement I had a year ago when I was two months away from giving birth to my first born, now my daughter of 10 months, Sloane. At that stage in my pregnancy, I thought to myself of all the cute little outfits I would buy for her and dress her in and she wasn't even born yet. You can now imagine her closet and the many of shopping sprees I still go on. Really!!! You can ask anyone, I buy her way too much clothes!!!

Here is my latest find that I just ordered for her and another find that I found for myself. Did you really think I wasn't going to reward myself after finding something so cute for Sloane. Come on now, that would have just been plain silly!!!

For Sloane

To Blog or Not To Blog...?

It's not that I do not enjoy blogging. It's more of a question, as if anyone is really interested or cares of what I blog about. Then I think to myself, do I really care that whole heartedly what someone may think of my blog? As I do like to hear comments and I would really LOVE for people to like my blog, it shouldn't affect my blogging either way. This is why I have decided to blog again.

Now, with this being said I do not think you should expect to see me on here everyday or every week for that matter. It may a quick shout out or simple photo, but I thought why not, let's give this blogging relationship another try.

Here's what I have been up to!!!

Enjoy and see you soon, or not.
