Garlic Roasted Chicken And Brussel Sprouts! [FOOD]

I thought I might never like chicken again after my last pregnancy. I had the worst morning sickness and just the smell of it triggered the nausea. Same happened during my first pregnancy and my feelings toward the meat never fully recovered-- it's not my favorite.

Finally, though, after 3 months postpartum, I'm able to voluntarily suggest having it. It's pretty simple to make and, for a meat, it's the most cost-effective source of meat protein.

I was craving brussel sprouts, which pairs nicely and you can stick them in the oven along with the chicken. Best part of a meal like this during this cold weather season is the warmth of the oven warms up the house. xo

Homemade Kielbasa, Meatball, Spinach Pasta!

Browned kielbasa is one of those rare but precious treats. Love kielbasa with carbs— pasta, portuguese rolls with tons on butter, whatever.

Turns out, Nui Nui is #likemotherlikedaughter :> In the 4th, 5th, and 6th photos below, Nui Nui just arrived to the table and, seeing my plate, was uncontrollably drawn to my plate, pointing specifically at the kielbasa, saying, 'I want that!'

Wondering how the pasta really tasted? Check the kid's facial expressions and you decide :>
