Chinese Hot and Sour Soup

September 22, 2009

Shortly after DT and I were dating I was introduced to the world of Chinese Hot and Sour Soup. I had seen it before at Chinese restaurants but always thought it looks weird and wasn’t quite sure what was floating around in it. Well it was DT favorite soup and he got it every time [...]

Playing in the rain

September 18, 2009

Sometimes I think I must be the best mom in the world. See its been raining everyday for the past week, not that I am complaining we need it desperately. But the boys have been lacking in their outside time, so I figured they could play in the rain. I knew they would make a [...]

Meet the Newlyweds Derek and Sarah

September 17, 2009

I am pleased to introduce Derek and Sarah. Sarah has a fabulous and sexy blog called La Jeune Marié. In which she shares her passion for fashion, weddings, and lingerie. She has so much style it makes me yearn for a passion in fashion (which I admittedly lack). She also is a neighbor of mine [...]

My grandmother “Granny” recently gave me a recipe for a favorite pie of her’s. It was perfect because I needed two deserts for different occasions and this recipe make 2 pies. I might not have ever eaten it before, but seriously how could a pie with cream cheese, caramel and coconut be bad. This did [...]

Have you ever wanted to vent or tell all and not wanted to blog about it on your personal blog? Because it might hurt feelings, or worse embarrass yourself for years to come? “Oh y’all. The funniest thing happened this weekend. Honestly, I giggle to myself every time I think of it. I want so, [...]

8 years ago today

September 11, 2009

I can’t believe it has been 8 years ago today when our country had the single most tragic terrorism attack. 8 years ago just seems like yesterday, I was 19 and attending our local junior college, getting ready to go to class when I was watching the news that 1 plane flew into the World [...]

Howdy, y’all! Welcome to my blog world. I am Sweet Pea, a 20-something Texas native and a newlywed…well, almost. We wed May 2006. Shortly after we were blessed with identical twins boys born November 2007.

My husband, whom I lovingly call Double Trouble (DT), owns and operates a trucking company, and we use our CB handles as our names here.

I however recently converted from a working mom to a stay-at-home mom. I love the new challenges that it brings and enjoy sharing my triumphs, messes, and adventures with you. I hope you enjoy reading about our busy lives with babies, cooking, gardening, trucking, and bargain shopping.
