This Grilled Steak Salad is from the April/May 2006 issue of Every Day with Rachael Ray. It is delicious and healthy. I will definitely be making it again. And for those of you who are doubtful that a salad can be a satisfying meal, let me assure you that this one is!

Celebrating Memorial Day in Hawaii

May 27th, 2008

Over the weekend we watched them set up for the big Memorial Day celebration at Ala Moana Beach park, which happens to be down the street from our condo. We have a great view of the beach from our balcony so we got to witness the progression of the elaborate set up for the […]

And we thought WE were Busy Mamas?

In fact, I use him as my personal mosquito repellant since they won’t even touch me if he’s around (Someone […]
