Wholesome White Corn Tortillas

Posted by Hallee on Dec 3, 2009 in Breads, Hallee's Galley, Mexican, Recipes

One day, browsing through the kitchen store, Gregg convinced me that our kitchen was incomplete without a tortilla press. Considering what huge fans we are of any kind of Mexican cuisine, it wasn’t a hard sell. I had it in my gadgets drawer for several months before I remembered to buy the right kind of flour and follow the directions. I cannot tell you how much my family enjoys using these tortillas when we have tacos or enchiladas. They taste wonderful, and you can have the comfort in knowing that they weren’t made in a factory months ago, but that they were made fresh and hot in your kitchen with exactly 3 ingredients.

I met a woman, Shannon, on a message board about four years ago. She posted this recipe, titling the post, “The Best Banana Bread You’ll Ever Eat.” She wasn’t lying.

Family Game Night

Posted by Hallee on Sep 19, 2009 in Parenting, Raising boys, Raising girls

If you don’t have a set game night, I highly encourage it. Once a week, turn the world off and have FUN. Interact with your children in an intimate setting where they feel comfortable to share their life with you.
