confessions from a cleaner mom
Ok girls, confession time (and yes, I still think of us as girls, you never age as quickly in your mind as your body): I am somewhat of a cleaner and an organizer, no real surprise there if you have read this blog very long. Recently I realized something sort of embarrassing: I almost never [...]

Saying good night, Ledeboer style
The following is the typical Ledeboer bedtime routine (for the kids anyway, this is a G rated blog after all): -Dinner time: Usually involving something too healthy for the kids to get excited about but not so disgusting that they won't eat it with the promise of dessert to follow. What they often forget is that I often [...]

Chocolate Beet Cake
My mother promised me "pink pee" if I ate enough beets as a child. Intrigued, I took her up on the challenge and have loved them ever since. The rest of my family is not so captivated and strangely, my attempts to lure them with promises of pink pee have proved to be less than [...]

Easy Whole Wheat Spiced Shortbread Cookies
No, really. Easy. I'm a lazy baker, so if I can make these without a second thought, so can you! They say necessity is the mother of invention. The necessity: out of white flour when I promised to make cookies. The invention: a whole wheat version of the shortbread I usually make. However, my family [...]
