Rock n’ Roll!

Posted on July 30, 2010December 15, 2011 by Jacky Hackett

The three-year old came home last week and inform me that he told all his friends at school that it was time to Rock n’ Roll.  Asked him what they said.  They said “no it’s not”.  Buzzkill! Well it is time for me to rock n’ roll and get my Frogger on again.  I am…

Blueberries and More Blueberries

Posted on July 28, 2010September 7, 2012 by Jacky Hackett

We went blueberry picking this past weekend.  What fun!  I am not a huge fan of blueberries, they are generally too tart for me, but the rest of the family loves them.  Picking them fresh and enjoying them is a whole different thing.  They were so sweet and delicious.  Helps that they are so much…

Beach weekend with no water is most excellent!

Posted on July 27, 2010 by Jacky Hackett

We were lucky enough to get invited to a friend’s beach house for a long weekend. The weather for the weekend was looking iffy, so we headed directly to the beach once we arrived.  No small feat to get 3 adults and 11 kids onto a beach with lunch, chairs, towels, toys and more.  Once…

Posted on July 23, 2010 by Jacky Hackett

Now that I am all caught up on the available past seasons of Dexter I am flying through my summer reading list, even with the new additions.  I haven’t gone through this many books in a long while.  I love when I stumble upon great reading, planning out my list certainly helped. The Yellow House…

What’s Cooking

Posted on July 13, 2010February 23, 2014 by Jacky Hackett

A busy weekend in and out of the kitchen… We went to a block party and I made a broccoli salad and some fruit for the kids.  My daughter has a cookbook she loves and has been dying to make a fruit dip recipe from it; smashed mango, plain yogurt, and honey. I pickled more…
