We all say we want to feed our families nutritious and healthy meals but you get so caught up in life that you default to fast and easy. And often fast and easy equals unhealthy. It’s actually fairly simple to provide healthy meals for your family, it just takes a little planning. It’s a lot easier when someone else does all the planning for you. Like, SOS! The Six O’Clock Scramble to the Rescue.
SOS! is much more than just a cookbook, it provides meal plans, tips, and information to help you make the best food choices for your family. There is even a great online resource you can join called, The Scramble. I particularly like how the weekly meal plans are categorized by season so you can use the best in season fruits and vegetables. Not only providing you with prime produce but typically when vegetables are in season they are cheaper.
There are so many delicious and easy recipes in the SOS! cookbook even the most picky eater are sure to find something they will love. My family is not picky, in fact they crave variety so I particularly like that I have an arsenal of dishes at hand.

I’m willing to try most things that drastically reduce the cook time for dinner. Many years ago my parents had a George Foreman Grill and I really liked everything about it, except for the clean up. Somehow wiping it down with a wet cloth never seemed to get it clean enough for me. Now, several…
Ice Cream is kind of a big deal in our house. Next to coffee I think, it’s Joe’s biggest addiction. (Let’s not even get started on coffee ice cream.) Actually, I’m pretty sure ice cream was one of the 1st foods for both of our boys. (See above) One of the first times we let…
Having a two year boy means I’m constantly cleaning up his mess. He loves to eat but still hasn’t master the art of the fork so I have to mop up his spills almost everyday. It has become a hassle to lug out the big mop and bucket. So I was thrilled to be given…
It’s been almost 3 years since Joe and I got married. Some times it feel like just yesterday and other times it feels like we’ve been together for years. Just this weekend I was looking through our wedding and honeymoon photos. I wish I could relive those days every day. For our honeymoon we spent…
Joe looks great in glasses. That’s on of the reasons I started dating him. I have a thing for guys in glasses. Prescription eye wear can be expensive and shopping for new glasses can be very time consuming. We really like shopping online for most everything else so why not glasses. With Eye Buy Direct…
