So, I want to apologize for not posting recipes every day this month. I made a few recipes that I wouldn’t wish upon anybody to try (we ate out or ate leftovers on those days), but I’m going to post the Mexican recipes as I use them for the rest of the month. I’m even […]...

I had the opportunity to watch an interesting video about canned food – how it goes from field to home. This video was brought to us by Mealtime.org and the Canned Food Channel’s Alliance.

We are continuing with our month of Mexican food on The Mommy-Files. We have had a Mexican dish of some sort almost every day so far this month.

This is one of my favorite dishes! Last week, things got a little chaotic and we actually ate from the Taco Truck a couple of times. It is so good, if you order the right things – lol! I ordered a Torta (recipe to come), the boys ate Quesadillas, and George ordered Tacos. So, here […]...
