Finding a Balance Between
"Me-Hood" and "Motherhood"

In this blog I'll be covering as wide a variety of subjects as the duties of a real mom in today's culture.


From raising special needs children, family vacations, marriage, relationships, sex, cooking, local to-do, school (both for you and the children), working, hiring a daycare provider, arts and crafts, decorating, holidays, to well... EVERYTHING!

But MoooOOOoMMM!!!!

Ok, who here struggles to make a quick, healthy breakfast for their kids? I discovered something quick this week.

Costco has delicious flats of fresh blueberries for around $5. We all know that blueberries are SUPER healthy for you. Truly a wonder food. I froze most of ours. But if your kids are like mine, they won't want to eat frozen blueberries in the middle of winter.

You pour some of them (about 1 cup) into a pot and add just a touch of low-sugar syrup (I like Mrs. Butterworth). Just a good squeeze (around 1 tbsp) and bring to a boil. The blueberries will thicken and some will burst. Turn the heat off and cool. Add over an Eggo Nutra Grain waffle (or two) for a super quick, healthy breakfast. Total this took me about 5min and my son had a great start to the day.

If you have leftover blueberry topping, you can keep it in your fridge for up to a week. Longer if you can it properly.

Fast, healthy and tasty... Just the way I like it!
