Sun-Mon Day

Foodblog-7094

On Sunday we came home to a dreary rainy fall day. But we were glad to be cozy again in our home sweet home! Brunch kept us full until dinnertime when we made a simple pasta dish with two eggplants from our garden, a jar of homemade tomato sauce, noodles and parmesan cheese.

 Foodblog-7100

Simple and easy! Pasta is always ready in the pantry.

Transitions

A boring Sunday gave me the opportunity to put two blogs posts in one. I’ve really enjoyed being 2 days behind because it takes ALL the pressure off of getting a post up each day, but a lot of you have said you wish I was only one day behind (or not behind at all). Unfortunately, I think my days of blogging 3 times a day in real time are over. I certainly could do that, but since stepping back and doing one post a day, I’ve realized how much more I like it. Many of you have said the same, so after 5 years of 3x daily, I think KERF will be a one poster blog from here on out. At least until there’s a reason to change again.

Blogging the day after means my posts will be completely unpredictable, and I might even have to skip and day every now and then. So just be aware of that and don’t worry if I go missing : )

* * *

So here’s Monday!!

Foodblog-7107

This was one INcredible bowl of overnight oats!

Foodblog-7108

I don’t really measure the proportions, so I don’t really know what they were, but I think I used more milk than usual and the pumpkin made this bowl taste and feel like pumpkin pie. In side was 1/3 cup oats, plus maybe 2/3 cup milk and 1/3 cup greek yogurt (also contributing to the creaminess), chia seeds, a pinch of salt and a splash of vanilla. On top was the last of my Autumn Spice Granola and a new flavor from Wild Squirrel – Vanilla Espresso! If you like coffee and you like almond butter, you will love this flavor.

Foodblog-7106

LOVE my latest mug – a wedding gift from Meredith’s welcome bags made by her Aunt Ella!! Ella and I got to know each other over the weekend, and she is going to figure out a way to have some kind of online presence because these mugs need to be shared with the world! Such a pretty shape – and a perfect leaf for the fall!

Foodblog-7110

After breakfast (which happened at, like, 10am) we played together and then got dressed for the day.

Baby jammies – so cute!!

Foodblog-7116

We also practiced our smiles!!! Caught a few!

Foodblog-2-3

Lunch was a killer salad all piled up on a plate

Foodblog-7129

A No Bull Burger on top of baby spinach with Woodstock dressing, apple slices, chopped olives and High Five toast cubes.

Foodblog-7124

Foodblog-7132

Foodblog-7122

Every day I have a few personal goals in addition to all of our baby fun time:

  1. Shower
  2. Eat 3 meals
  3. Blog
  4. Straighten up house

And two optional ones:

  1. Walk/exercise
  2. Leave house for some reason

The first four items can easily be completed during naps, but adding in the last two makes my day pretty full! I can’t wait for the day when Maze will nap in his crib and/or like his stroller : )

So on Monday we squeezed in both a trip to Whole Foods AND a walk into one nap period. It was glorious.

One of the greatest joys of life: eating the melted rim of the ice cream carton when it’s been out after coming home from the grocery store!

Foodblog-7134

Afternoon fuel: AnneP bar from the freezer!!

Foodblog-7142

Matt worked 6-6 yesterday, so I did my best to have the baby ready for bed (if only he would actually go to bed!) and dinner in the oven when Matt came home. A few happy periods in the swing let me put together a chicken and roasted veggies dinner!

Foodblog-7150

I cut up 3 sweet potatoes and a bag of brussels sprouts and rubbed them all in olive oil, salt, rosemary and pepper. I put them on the bottom of a pan and place some Organic Butcher herbed chicken on top and roasted it all at 400* for about an hour. Delicious and hands free!

Foodblog-7155

Served with Popeye rolls Matt brought home from the bakery.

Foodblog-7154

And then we went to bed!

Later Gators!

    You can tell Mazen is really getting some personality – LOVE the baby pajamas. Baby clothes in general are just too cute for words. I don’t have kids but still like to look at them in stores.

    omg his footsie pajamas are too cute! And I’ve almost always been a one post a day blog and it really works best for me, especially since I’m a full time law student. Haha my day is too boring for 3 posts and I just don’t have time or enough to say! Personally I don’t mind your day-after posts rather than real time, I think they tend to be more reflective rather than rushed and just “here’s my breakfast!” We all evolve throughout our lives and I think this will be a good move for you now that you have little Maze!

      Things change with time, your Little Tiger is now priority No1, the blog and its readers may take the back seat for the time being 😉 I absolutely agree with Katie, day-after posts allow you “chewing and digesting time”, which makes them more thought throu.

    Although I enjoyed the 3 X daily I would love a one time a day in the morning. Mazen is way more important and way more cuter to look at than a computer screen. He just looks so adorable and cuddly. I do not know how you put him down.

    Before I became a mom, I had little sympathy for parents – I didn’t understand why your entire life had to change and why you had to work everything around the baby’s schedule. I remember it sinking in the day we left the hospital. We tried multiple times to leave, but the little guy just wanted to nurse repeatedly. The nurse kept politely checking, thinking we were never going to go! When our guy was 3 months old, he started sleeping a glorious 12 hours a night. But he went down at 5 pm. So no evenings out or late afternoon appointments or it messed up our whole night!

    So you need to do what’s best for you, your baby and your sanity! A baby does change everything – for the better in my opinion. I do look forward to your blog every day, but the daily or multi-day recap is what a lot of blogging moms do and I think there’s a reason for that!

    I don’t mind if you post in real time or not, or just once a day. I’m glad you found a routine that makes you happy. I’m just glad you are still blogging because man, I’d miss seeing your delicious eats and knowing what you’re up to! Love your dinner…did the chicken not dry out roasting it for an hour though?

    I completely support you staying at 1 post per day and being a couple of days behind–I don’t really have any need to know what you are up to on a real-time basis; from my perspective, you could even just put the current date on a post about events that actually happened two days ago and I would have no way of knowing the difference! I also think the three-in-one gives the posts a little more heft and leaves out some of the, “I exercised, ate this for lunch and worked” posts. Those were fun but it’s totally reasonable to dispense with them now that you have a little one.

    Mazen is so sweet!!

    Enjoy your time being home with Maze, and don’t stress about the blog. This is time you can’t replace, and us readers should understand. And I, too, love eating the melted ice cream from the top of the rim when I get home from the grocery store. I thought it was my own strange habit!

    I feel the same as the others, you need to do what is best for your family. Although, I know the blog is a job for you, one post a day works too! I remember when you went on vacation and posted one big post a day and I really liked it and am liking what you are doing now too. I also don’t care of real time, I just really like to see some your food because I use it as suggestions for myself. Plus, now that we’ve gotten to know you, I would miss what you blog about each day! 🙂

    I love that you’re going to one post per day. I don’t feel like I’ve missed anything if I don’t catch all the posts and feel like it’s just nice to sit down and read about what you have going on, all at once, once daily. And with your new life, role, unpredictability of it all, I have no idea how you’d realistically do more than 1 a day with any consistency…then again, your ability to post no matter what has always!! been amazing and mind-boggling how you’ve always pulled it off 🙂

    I think you’re making the right choice with one post a day vs. Three. You definitely don’t need the extra stress right now and Mazen needs you more than the Internet does. 🙂 besides, there are hugely successful blogs that post far less often than even once a day! It’s all about quality, not quantity. And I really like large posts!

    It is nice to hear from a new mom on ways that you are adjusting your day. It is nice to know that you are still living life and seeing friends and wanting to get out!

    One post a day recapping the previous days makes so much sense. Everyone will adjust, and it won’t be a big deal if you skip a day here and there. Most one-post-a-day bloggers do miss a day here and there, and so far, the world hasn’t ended. 🙂

    Also, someday (sooner than you think!) Maze will nap in his crib, his car seat and his stroller.

HA!) . Oh well, playing with our newly smiling son is taking up all sorts of time! He’s interacting SO much now! Isn’t it fun!
    …..Girl, you are on your A game getting one post up each day! I just posted Jackson’s birth story TODAY and ummmm- he’s 46 days old!!! See? You’re doing AWESOME!!!!

    Those baby jammies are adorable!! And I really respect the fact that you’re adjusting your blogging schedule to your LIFE instead of living your life around your blog. Do what works for you and I think the readers that really enjoy reading will hang around (whether you’re blogging day of, 1 day past, 2 days past or a week past). 🙂

    LOL! It doesn’t matter what time a day it is that I go grocery shopping, I always break into the melty ice cream when I get home. 🙂 Yum!
    And…people who think you can still be blogging three times a day must not realize what it is like to have a newborn! I’m impressed with all you have been doing being a new mom. Good for you!

    Kath, I usually when while feeding a babe and can’t always comment but I had to chime in on this one. I LOVE eating the melted rim before putting a new carton of ice-cream away!
    PS Also love the quilt from your cousin and baby smiles. 🙂

    I am glad to hear you are loving posting once a day…at the end of the day, you need to do what’s best for your new lifestyle! Your readers will get over not reading 3 different posts from you per day!

    I am a one post per day gal myself…and if I happen to miss a day then so be it! Sometimes I get too busy living to blog about it 🙂

    Ps I love that mug!

    Just because you stated your intention to blog once a day, don’t feel like you can’t throw one up there when you find an odd extra time! ha ha.

    hey, you’ve gotta eat the melty part (even BEYOND the rim if necessary!).

    I’ll miss the 3-a-day but a whole-day post is equally great. Hope when things get less hectic you’ll be able to do the occasional organizing/cleaning/decorating post, too.

    (Oh, and you looked beautiful in your red dress at the wedding. Red is a really good color for you!)

I want to take this opportunity to say how much I enjoy visiting here each day. Thank you for all that you do to make this an enjoyable experience.

    Kath your dinner looks AMAZING! I love the rustic touch of rosemary on your chicken, I have got to try that sometime! You also had my two very favorite veggies, YUM! I just wanted to say that you have given me so much inspiration over the year or so I’ve been following KERF. Once you gave me advice on the Dietetics career and I’m studying to be an RD! I find out if I can get into the program in February (NERVOUS! 27 applying, 19 spots). I have an assignment due at the end of my semester about food blogging and wanted to toss some ideas your way, may I send you a personal email?

    Good for you for realizing that sometimes, you just can’t fit it all in! I think family/home life should come first, and if that means pairing back on the blog, so be it! I’m just impressed you still cook/make all those wonderful meals with your hands full! No matter if you 1 day behind or 5, I’ll still read!
