If you are looking for a super simple, basic soup that tastes like it has been slow cooking on grandma’s stovetop for hours, then look no further. I am talking about Matzo Ball Soup. This simple bowl of broth and balls is the perfect soup to warm your soul as days become shorter and nights become crisper. Matzo ball soup is easy… Keep Reading…
How We Got Here
Hello friend! It has been a while and I want you to know that although we have been quiet on the blog these past several months, I promise we weren’t sitting around twiddling our thumbs. The Sister Project has evolved and Lauren and I wanted to be sure our blog was just right before we got back to blogging…. Keep Reading…
Our Journey
When Lauren and I began the rebuilding of The Sister Project we knew one thing for sure and that was that we were going to include our journey and our mom’s journey with FTD in its own space. What we learned from sharing our journey on the blog was that we were not alone. We were often contacted over the… Keep Reading…
How To Re-Inspire Yourself
Raise your hand if you know what writer’s block feels like? How about being stuck in a creative rut when the last thing you really need in life is to be stuck…anywhere. Oh, I know – what about when you’re not only feeling uninspired, but you’re feeling negative levels of inspiration? Yep, I just raised both of my hands and… Keep Reading…
The Year of Michelle
How many of you spend the end of the year fantasizing about the changes you are going to make in the new year? I absolutely do. I usually start my reflection around Thanksgiving. I put a little extra time and thought into my goals for 2018 because my birthday also happens to fall just five days after the new… Keep Reading…
How to Hygge in Chicago
Confession: As a born and raised Midwesterner, I still have trouble with Old Man Winter. Every year, particularly when the time changes and the sun starts to wane at 2pm, I start my regimen: buy Vitamin D, read reviews on those special lights that help with Seasonal Affective Disorder (but never commit to buying one), scope out flight prices on… Keep Reading…
In It To Knit It
Has everyone else noticed that you don’t see people’s faces as much anymore because they’re always face planting into their phones? I’ve run into people, people have run into me, I’ve seen someone almost get hit by a car, have been stuck behind someone on the highway going 35 miles an hour because, yup, you guessed it, they’re looking at… Keep Reading…
40 And Grateful
I wanted to title this blog “Halfway to Eighty”, but it didn’t have quite the same feeling that my “Halfway to Eighteen” blog did so I went with something else. I have to admit, I am not a big birthday person. I never was. I don’t love all of the attention unless of course, I am standing next to… Keep Reading…
Minimalism – Let’s Get Rid of Sh*t
Let go. That seems to be my theme for the past couple of days. And I don’t mean “letting go” of baggage and emotional stuff, I mean letting go of sh*t in my house that I don’t need or ever use. Oh my dear Lord, do I have a bunch of crap. Ever since New Year’s Day when Anthony and… Keep Reading…
Retro Christmas
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone!!! I freaking love this time of year, it’s my favorite. I know I said that about Halloween, but I don’t care, whatever. Because you know what, I f*cking love Christmas! Back in the day, I used to start listening to Christmas carols in July and I would listen to them allllll night long. I… Keep Reading…
The Gizmo Watch
Okay, readers! We are going to get down and dirty with this year’s hottest gadget for kids. If you have read my posts over the years, you are well aware of my contempt for technical devices, especially the iPad (and that one device-free summer), but the fact is we live in a technical world and, quite simply, fancy phones and… Keep Reading…
Halfway To 18
Halfway to 18. That is the age my twins are as today is their ninth birthday. And, until I had a little chat with a friend of mine where she referenced their ninth birthday as being the halfway milestone to their eighteenth, I was just prepping to celebrate another year older. But, as it turns out, nine is a bigger deal than I… Keep Reading…
