I'M BAAAAACK!!!

As you may have noticed, I took a break just before Christmas. I used my time away to think about what I really wanted this blog to focus on. The rigid format of posting I'd been doing became more of a chore, less of the creative outlet I envisioned when I began. I will still post recipes and educational tools and tips, but in a much more relaxed manner. I hope you continue to find Super SAHM useful and fun!

• Sugar Cookies (for Santa of course!)
• Cinnamon Buns (Christmas morning breakfast)
• I'll be switching the icing in the recipe above for this cream cheese icing
• We try to limit our sugar intake as much as possible, so I swap out the sugar in baked goods for xylitol ( available at most health food stores), making them sugar free!

Funtastic Fridays: The Confession

I just finished reading John Grisham's The Confession. I simply could not put it down. It was a roller coaster ride that had my heart racing and my blood boiling throughout. Travis Boyette is a serial rapist and murderer. Donte Drumm is a young man days away from being executed for one of Boyette's crimes. The Confession takes you on a thrilling journey as Boyette races the clock to convince the Texas justice system that they are about to kill the wrong man. Five stars in my book!
