The Hughs House: Update
http://thehughshouse.blogspot.com/2012/02/update.html
Wednesday, February 29, 2012. Chocolate covered cinnamon bears are incredible. That says a lot because i hate cinnamon flavored anything. Been taking it easy on counting calories. Doctor is making it sound like our eventual solution to me losing weight is to eat more(counterintuitive I know). But when I count calories, my first instinct is to restrict. Haven't been going overboard and still working out but trying to back off on it a little. So far nothing bad has happened. So Tuesday afternoon, I took he...

The Hughs House: New Year New Goals
http://thehughshouse.blogspot.com/2012/01/new-year-new-goals.html
Tuesday, January 3, 2012. New Year New Goals. So, as we ushered in 2012, I went back to my list of goals(not resolutions) that I had made at the beginning of 2011. And of the 10 major goals I had in mind for myself and my family, I completed 8 of them. Not too shabby, considering they were mainly big life changes. And while I will never quit setting goals for myself because I think making and reaching goals help me to be my better self, I feel happy(? That's not to say I haven't been happy but I feel lik...

The Hughs House: March 2011
http://thehughshouse.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Just Call Me Martha! By now, unless you live under rock, you know I am into all things domestic. I love to cook, bake, sew, and yes even clean. (Okay so I don't love to clean but I love a clean house). And apart from crazy organized linen closets, I have a lot in common with Martha Stewart. And while I find Martha to be quite brilliant in her domesticity, she drives me absolutely crazy! Really good, but not perfect. My quest will go on. Recipe Courtesty Of Martha Stewart.com.

The Hughs House: April 2011
http://thehughshouse.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 27, 2011. I haz the patience. So, good job Miss Avalon, you get a sticker," as I usually address her. You did a good job too Mommy.". Yeah, you be happy and smile and you have your patience sewing last night.". I really enjoy sewing but teaching myself has been less than easy mainly becuase of all of the terminology. I have to look up every little thing. And then sometimes the pictures that accompany the discriptions make no sense at all. Obviously, I am not a visual learner. So (sew) fa...

The Hughs House: June 2011
http://thehughshouse.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 18, 2011. Made real strawberry popsicles the other day. Not enough sugar or food processing. Kinda sour, not that great. Remade them today with more sugar, a bit of strawberry yogurt and lots of blending and they were SO good. Next time I eat one, I'll take a pic and blog. Not much of a recipe though. I mixed them up unti they tasted good. Bought software in order to make a will and all that other important things that should be done. Here's to being an adult! And I don't mind saying.

The Hughs House: September 2011
http://thehughshouse.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 21, 2011. Let's Check On How I'm doing. So at the beginning of the year, I had written a list of goals I wanted to accomplish by the end of the year. And since getting into our new house, I've crossed one more off the list. 1 Start a new blog and try to update at least twice a week. Yes I'm a stay at home mom but I am busier than I ever was at a job. So I didn't get to this one. I probably should've been a little more proactive this spring and early summer but I wasn't and then I...

The Hughs House: December 2011
http://thehughshouse.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 8, 2011. 10 Years and Counting. Also, a month and counting. Nearly a whole month since I last posted. Sometimes I find myself not posting because I'm not sure who all my readers are and don't want to ruffle feathers. I hate to self censor but sometimes, I feel like I've had enough conflict in my life, I don't need any more. More often than not though, I am busy. And now that Christmas is upon us, it is even busier. But I'm not complaining, I love Christmas! Another date a few days late...

The Hughs House: November 2011
http://thehughshouse.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 9, 2011. If you get a chance, watch the episode of Dr. Phil today about the judge who was seen on You Tube beating his daughter. The girls mother actually joins in. And sadly, I completely understand her mother. She seemed to me that she wanted to give her daughter her punishment and be done but the father was raging. Second, something the mother said just infuriated me. She told her daughter to "turn over and take it like a grown woman." Dammit, a 16 year old girl is not a gr...And w...
