Skinny Jeans {A List}

-
Things I would give up skinny jeans for...

Pizza
Tacos, Taco Salad, Burritos, You get the idea
Peanut Butter
Heavy cream in my coffee

Today I'm sharing two soup recipes that call for heavy whipping cream. This is an ideal soup because you will likely have cream left over and being the wise, financially aware, WASTE NOT WANT NOT! person that you are, you will want to use the remaining cream so the best place for it is your coffee cup.

Bonus points:: They're slow cooker recipes!

Sausage, Kale & Tortellini Soup
Maggie is a mama to 3 (almost 4!) who is all about fun painted nails, being debt free Dave's way and creativity. She lives in Michigan but I like to think that we'd be friends in real life if miles weren't a thing.

White Chicken Chili 
Via DesignMom via Julie G. I made this last night to rave reviews (although it does have some kick to it. One daughter gobbled it up while one kept saying it was spicy) I omitted the onion because WHO LET ME MARRY SOMEONE THAT DOESN'T LIKE ONIONS??

Enjoy!

We opt for leggings these days, but I know someday we'll all be crammed into a dressing room and one of us will be crying. Probably about skinny jeans.

I've always resisted the urge to walk up to her and say, "You never taught me how to diagram sentences! You're the reason I'm not a writer!" But if I happen to see her after I move, I'll take it as a sign and invite her out to lunch...where she might just teach me how to diagram sentences. 2. It's a ritzy, upscale place . We're moving to a place where people are well off. Yes, there will be drawbacks to this and I probably wouldn't pick it if I had a choice (but that's a blog post for another day). While there will be drawbacks, the...

The ultimate Time Out death stare 1. Potty Training Is going well. Less accidents, more jelly bean rewards. It just involves a lot of bending over (ooph!) and huddling in public bathroom stalls together. 2. "Treat others the way you would want to be treated" Would you like for her to take the toy out of your hands? How would you feel if she chased you until you were scared? Would you like for her to start singing while you're singing a song? The Bible says to treat others the way you would want to be treated...yatayata  x a millionHOW MANY MORE YEARS OF THIS 3. "No one likes being ignored"  I overheard my older, wiser, more organic (Jokes. But not really. She uses raw sugar and roasts her own peanuts) friend tell her child this when he was ignoring his sister. I like it much better than "answer your sister" as it makes them think of the other person instead of just following a command. Thoughts? 4. "Stay three feet away from me...
