One-Pot Pasta with Shrimp Recipe 1

Lately, I've been having a blast spending my mornings with Martha Stewart, so I thought it only fitting that I start making some of her dishes, you know, out of respect for our new relationship:-)  I decided to start with her one-pot pasta (though Martha refers to it as "one-pan") which sounded a little too good to be true when I saw it, so I had to try it for myself. The good news is that it really is as easy as it sounds. Yes, really.  Everything was ready in under 15 minutes.  The even better news is that it tastes great...

How to Find Time to Start Your Own Business 0

*This article was originally published in the August/September 2014 issue of the  Fulton County, GA Women's Journal available here: http://bit.ly/ZsXy8Y Disclaimer: when you have other things going on in your life (as every woman I know does), there will never be an ideal time to start a new business.  There will always be another commitment, obligation or unavoidable duty that can easily stand the way of reaching your goal…if you let it.   In my case, it was right in the middle of what I jokingly refer to as my “fake maternity leave” when I started my...

Bruschetta Pesto Pizza with Balsamic Chicken Recipe 0

It's National Pizza Month and we're kicking it off in the BambiniWare kitchen with this yummy creation inspired by toddler boss's love of anything that involves tomatoes. And despite my love for all things "toddler boss," I'm actually naming it the "Deb," after my mom, who hates tomatoes, but LOVES this pizza.  Thanks again for giving it a try, mom:-) The first time I made it, I used store-bought pesto, but since toddler boss and I started growing basil in the bambini garden, I decided to make it from scratch this time.  As you'll see, I kept...

Key Lime-Avocado Mousse Recipe 0

Toddler boss and I were hanging out at Whole Foods during sample time (our favorite time of day) and we came across a lady peddling this key lime-avocado mousse thing, claiming that it tasted just like key lime pie (my fave).  Ummm...ok, if you say so.   I reluctantly gave it a try subbing the honey for agave nectar and it turns out that she was right...so right.  Who knew?!  It was soooo good and the best thing about this yummy treat is that it's so good for you too. Packed with good fats, antioxidants and almost 20 different vitamins...

Toddler Sick Day Survival Guide & Essentials 0

Toddler boss was out of school last week with a pretty bad ear infection, and, unfortunately I wasn’t feeling my best either. Actually, that’s putting it mildly…I felt AWFUL. And for the record, let me just say that it sucks being sick while your child is sick.  It’s impossible to get rest when she’s awake and even if you can sneak in a nap at some point while she’s sleeping, you can’t get any sort of decent sleep because you really do need to be alert (even though the "non-drowsy" meds you took apparently missed the...
