MomCoach: What's cooking? Wednesday - A Pinterest failure
http://momcoach.hopali.com/2013/01/whats-cooking-wednesday-pinterest.html
Because being a Mom isn't always easy! Wednesday, January 23, 2013. Wednesday - A Pinterest failure. Trying something unfamiliar is risky but without taking that risk, you don't discover new likes (and dislikes). So, even a failure can be considered a success, if only to eliminate something you don't like :) Does that make sense? Triple Chocolate Chunk Muffins. 1 3/4 c oats. 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa. 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce. 1 tsp vanilla extract. 1-1/2 tsp. baking powder. 1/4 tsp. salt. Place mi...

MomCoach: November 2014
http://momcoach.hopali.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Because being a Mom isn't always easy! Thursday, November 27, 2014. Wednesday - Better than Pumpkin Pie! This is a repost from 2012, back by popular demand :). I'm so excited for Fall! That means I can make this dessert more often! It's easy (no making pie crust), and makes you feel like you're eating something healthy because it's pumpkin. :) If I had to pick a non-chocolate dessert, this would be first on my list! Better than Pumpkin Pie. 1 pkg yellow or white cake mix, dry. 1/2 c butter, melted. 1 Whe...

MomCoach: Frozen...food not the movie :)
http://momcoach.hopali.com/2015/01/frozenfood-not-movie.html
Because being a Mom isn't always easy! Friday, January 23, 2015. Frozen.food not the movie :). Years ago, when I heard about the idea of making a month's worth of meals in a day, I was intrigued. Then I thought about the practicalities.with a family of 10, that would fill up a HUGE freezer! Also, the idea of spending an entire day planning and grocery shopping for those meals and another entire day in the kitchen preparing them sounded like torture! The less time I spend in the kitchen, the better! If un...

MomCoach: January 2015
http://momcoach.hopali.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Because being a Mom isn't always easy! Thursday, January 29, 2015. Warning - serious topic. A tragic news article prompted me to write today. A 29 year old mother couldn't stand hearing her young babies and toddler crying so she tried to kill them. Now the mother is in jail facing attempted murder charges and her three little children (aged 2 and twins 6 months old) are fighting for their lives. You think, "How could this happen? What could have been done to prevent it? Cover them. Baby sweating? 4 If yo...

http://momcoach.hopali.com/2012/05/strong-willed-child.html
Because being a Mom isn't always easy! Monday, May 21, 2012. I knew she was different the moment she was born. Her cry sounded.angry. Like, "How dare you disturb my peace and quiet! May 22, 2012 at 10:39 PM. This really got my attention. The parent of any strong willed child is really put to the test. So wonderful to know that not only did parent and child survive, but they thrived! May 23, 2012 at 10:08 AM. It was touch and go for a while.like most of her childhood :). May 23, 2012 at 12:46 PM.

MomCoach: Correction not criticism
http://momcoach.hopali.com/2015/02/correction-not-criticism.html
Because being a Mom isn't always easy! Wednesday, February 4, 2015. Because no one is perfect (not you nor your children), you can be assured that your children will misbehave. It's part of their growing up process.learning to control their impulses, learning what is appropriate, learning right and wrong. Can you respond to a whinny child calmly? Can you talk with your belligerent teenager quietly and without overreacting? That, my dear friend, is your challenge. You already know that you can't chang...

MomCoach: Gone in a flash!
http://momcoach.hopali.com/2015/02/gone-in-flash.html
Because being a Mom isn't always easy! Wednesday, February 11, 2015. Gone in a flash! Today was one of those roast-cooking days. I went to Costco and picked up a 5 pound slab of meat. After cooking it, I decided it was one of the best roasts I've ever made.tender and easily shredded but not dry. I used some of it to make broccoli stir-fry for dinner tonight and it was perfect! Glass, meat and juices scattered everywhere! November 15, 2015 at 7:16 PM. Thanks for share,. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
