On the Menu: Pasta & Tuna

September 9, 2016

A few months ago, I wrote about my Menu planning process. (you can read about it here) While I haven’t exactly planned out anything this month (hello summer!) I still follow my rules I set up for myself. To make meal planning easier, I designate certain days for certain types of meats/dishes. For example, if … More On the Menu: Pasta & Tuna

Menu planning made simple

May 22, 2016

At the beginning of the year, I had decided that I was going to set a new “goal” (but let’s not call it that) to be more organised, and simplify things. Part of my new routine would include continuing to improve my meal planning. I’ve been planning out my dinners for 2-3 years now and … More Menu planning made simple

How to totally freak out your parents

February 10, 2016

Growing up we always ate a variety of foods… or at least I thought we did. We ate mostly Mexican but we also had our fair share of American comfort foods. Meatloaf, Roast.. things like that. We’d eat fish but usually was fried.. you know.. because TEXAS! As we got older we’d eat less at … More How to totally freak out your parents

How to impress the Italians.

May 31, 2015

If you can’t tell, I love to cook and bake. It’s my thing or at least it was. I considered myself a good cook, everyone told me I was so I believed them. Sweets were my specialty. Cheesecakes, cupcakes & cookies. I used to make them to celebrate my co-workers birthdays. Once we arrived here, … More How to impress the Italians.

Behind the Gram: Fried pizza & veggies

May 24, 2015

I’m trying really hard to get Miss E and Baby C to eat their veggies. Just like most babies, they ate really well until they realized they could say NO. All of my girls were really good eaters until about  14-18 months. That’s whey they all started to refuse most of the veggies. I make … More Behind the Gram: Fried pizza & veggies

If there’s one day where soccer (football) fans unite, it’s today. May 4, 1949 a plane carrying the entire Torino team, coaching staff and a few journalists crashed into the retaining wall behind the Basilica di Superga. This church sits on a hill over looking the valley. (I wrote a quick post on the blog.) Every year fans head up to the church to pay their respects and the city lights up the Mole Antonelliana in the teams colors.
When you grow up in a multicultural home you get to be a little extra, especially around the holidays. Since we didn’t have time before Easter, we made our cascarones today and will probably take them to the playground tomorrow.
March 19th is San Giuseppe, or St. Joseph. Joseph being Jesus’ earthly father is recognized as the father of us all and thus is why Italians celebrate Father’s Day today. Here’s to all you Dads celebrating.. and to our main guy. We love him soo much. #fathersday #lifeinitaly #lifewithkids
A few weeks ago, we took a walk to the park and the girls stopped for a few seconds to go on the slide. It immediately brought back memories from when they were little and the playground was our life.
Today is a special day and it almost went unnoticed. It’s my Italyversary! 13 years ago on January 3rd, 2009, I walked out of Turin Caselle Airport not knowing what my future was going to be like. I just knew I was supposed to be here with my “still new” husband.
#top9 for #2021. Seems like reels got the most love this year. So I guess I should make more. 🤷🏽‍♀️ #turinpro #therealturin
