Hi there.
Yikes. Neglected this place, I unintentionally have. And there are so many topics on my ever-growing To Tackle list, it’s hard to know which to check off next.
And check one off very soon, I shall. I’ve just been consumed with a few things as of late, such as acquiring not one, but two new jobs; researching and applying to grad schools; speaking with recruiters; beginning wellness care with chiropractors; touring and researching childcare options — double yikes!; my family; weddings; the gammet . Have I mentioned that I have a Wheaten Terrier? He’s probably more consuming than all of the above, it’s a good thing he has his looks.
Please stay tuned, I have much ranting to do. Yep, worth reading, I think. In the meantime, I challenge you to heat your food with anything but a microwave for one week. Just try it out. Become BFF with the cheap toaster oven that you smuggled into your dorm room, and dig out those tiny sauce pans from your cabinet. Put them to use, and do this for a nuke-free week. Pitch a tent in your backyard, if it helps you justify such prehistoric means. I’ll make this all come full circle. Trust me.
See you soon.






In this time when Big Food and Pharma are making mega profits, I'm acknowledging a broken system with options a parent can count on. While the information super highway puts infinite resources at our fingertips, navigating that maze leaves my head spinning. I created Spilled Ingredients as a sieve for all of us busy, real folks and parents.










That’s one attractive terrier.
So does microwaving one’s food reduce its nutrition?
I’m still waiting for that circle.
