sweetness. Mar 3
I guess I’m a lot of things: a wife, a mom, a daughter, a sister, a crafter, a cook, a reader, a writer, a homemaker, a pianist, and probably a lot more too. But at the end of the day, I’m just a Christian trying to find and obey God’s will.

Yup, my name is Danica. Like the race car driver, whose name I know, but whose career I know nothing about. A Nascar fan I am not. Things like reading, playing piano, gardening, cooking, sewing, writing, and keeping my bathroom bleached are more up my alley. Read more »My maiden name is Sinclair (not Patrick), and I come from good stock. (So says my husband, anyway!) I'm the oldest of 9 kids--and my parents are neither insane, uninformed, or Catholic. They're actually the best parents you could ask for. Seriously. (And, consequently, I think pretty highly of my siblings, too, whose blogs you can access from the links below.) I've joined a new clan, though, and my husband and I have been "leaving-and-cleaving" for 2 years and counting. We have a son who you'll read much (too much?) about. Oh. And there are pictures of him, too--hundreds of them--should you care to click on over to my flickr account. I'm a stay at home mom who is redefining that title--I literally stay at home as much as I possibly can. I love to be home! Home, by the way, is in Northern California, although my roots are in a lil' ol' town in Northern New York. Lastly, I take all blame for any ridiculous, outlandish, illogical posts. Anything worth commenting on or linking to is due to my husband's encouragement. In the spirit of the Little engine That Could, "He thinks I can, He thinks I can, He thinks I can,...", and sometimes, that's all a wife needs.

I do have a few recipes that I’ve modified for Alyssa’s diet, which automatically makes them healthier. And the chewy granola bars are hands-down the easiest, cheapest, yummiest snack food ever. If you don’t have that recipe I can send it to you. I will go through my notebook and send you an email tomorrow.

Actually rather than me sending you a long confusing email, I’m just going to recommend my favorite recipe site. http://www.hillbillyhousewife.com She has a whole section that is healthier foods, a lot with beans and grains and a ton of ideas for saving grocery money. Some of it is a bit of a stretch for me (like the powdered milk. icky.) But its a cool website to check out and its where I get a lot of my cheap recipes. The tortilla recipe is fantastic and super easy. All her lentil recipes are great. The oven fried chicken is Josh’s absolute favorite now (and I use Smart Balance Light instead of butter so its low fat).
Yeah I could go on and on. I love this site. Hopefully you do too. :-)
PS - love those baby feet!!

I just noticed the etsy sign on the right too - I hope that means you’ll be opening you’re own store soon! You could certainly do it :-)
