The nice weather is slow leaving North Carolina so we aren’t spending as much time outside these days. Yesterday was cold and rainy so we had a lot of warm comfort food. Breakfast: Fried Egg, Bacon and Pineapple Lunch: Baked Sweet Potato with leftover bacon and pineapple In the afternoon while both littles were sleeping…

Half Way There! Yesterday was a busy and fun day. In the morning I took both littles with me to the gym for the first time. They both did wonderfully so I’m planning on going twice a week. In the afternoon we had a play date with some friends. Breakfast: Scrambled Egg with Ham and…

Breakfast: 2 Hard Boiled Eggs & Strawberries I hard boiled a few extra eggs to keep in the fridge for a snack or to add to a meal. Lunch: Leftover Pork Loin, zucchini and cauliflower and roasted kabocha squash I’ve read that roasted kabocha squash was good so I decided to give it a try…

Yesterday was absolutely gorgeous here in Raleigh. We spent the morning at the Farmer’s Market buying fresh fruits and veggies for this week’s meal plan. In the afternoon Jude and I played outside while the little boys napped. Then we all went to the YMCA and to the night service at church, it was pretty…

After the morning fog rolled away and we ate lunch we headed outside to visit a local park, get coffee and go grocery shopping for Week 3 (which starts tomorrow) of our Whole30 Challenge. Breakfast: Fried Egg, Bacon and Sweet Potato Hash I’m still working on a Sweet Potato…

I need to go grocery shopping, yesterday’s meals were a bit of a hodgepodge of random things I could find in the house. I think we did pretty well with what we had. I woke up super early to get the stitches removed from my hand where I stabbed myself  with a knife on day…

Another fairly normal day for the Lieb family. Jude went to preschool, Joe went to work and I stayed home with the littles all day. I have always enjoyed cooking but have recently found it a challenge with 3 little kids but I’m learning that like everything else I do with 3 littles it just…

We’re still doing pretty well with the Whole30 challenge. I’m having a harder time dealing with the sugar cravings, especially in the evening. I used to use chocolate as a stress reliever but now I need to find a new stress release. Thankfully I haven’t been as stressed lately as usual, maybe the Paleo diet…

Joe is having a hard time with our Whole30 Challenge. He really misses his snack foods so when he planned on having a few guys over last night we started researching Paleo-friendly snacks and he decided on wings. He did a lot of recipe research and pretty much perfected Paleo wings (recipe to come). Breakfast:…
