Mini Egg Blondies Recipe
Easter is one of my favorite holidays. This is mostly because the best candy is brought out in the stores during this season. Yes, I prefer Easter candy over Halloween candy… hands down! For as long as I can remember, Cadbury Mini Eggs have been my first choice. I am always sure to stock up [...]
Pot Roast for Dinner
As a woman who grew up eating fast food pretty much all the time, I’m not too savvy about home cooked meals. And I’ll admit, I enjoy restaurant food. It’s convenient and delicious, but it can get pricey. So I do try to cook when I can and when I look for recipes, I look [...]
Quick Cleaning Tip #3 for Busy Mamas
I hate— let me repeat, I HATE— having toys all over the floor. But with two kids under 2 years of age, it’s pretty much inevitable. That being said, baskets have changed my life! We have baskets quite literally all over the house; it seems that we have as many baskets as we do toys. [...]
Evie’s Out to Sea Nursery and Giveaway
I am in awe of this mama. She is so crafty, great with DIY, and has some great people that help her build and make things when she asks. She had a small budget for this nursery, but you would never know it. I love the colors and all of the little details. Slightly better [...]
5-Ingredient Baby Back Ribs
Thanks to Pinterest, I stumbled upon a food blog that I have spent hours reading. I have pinned many, many recipes from this woman’s blog and I’m still not finished yet. She and I sharing a first name is merely a nice coincidence: Alexandra Cooks. One recipe stood out to me because of how simple [...]
Chicken Pot Pies
My husband and I both adore eating chicken pot pies. Actually, we enjoy pretty much any kind of meat-veggie-mix-topped-with-pie-crust concoction that’s out there. Even in the middle of summer, we’re happy to eat them. I have seen a lot of recipes for quick and simple pot pies and casseroles using refrigerator biscuits or Bisquik and [...]
Elise’s Tiffany Blue Nursery
When Angela found out she would be having a little girl, she wanted to put together a delicate and beautiful nursery. She chose to use the colors Tiffany blue and pink with white furniture, and I think it turned out beautifully! One of my favorite elements of Elise’s adorable nursery is the dresser her mama [...]
Carrot & Zucchini Pancakes
While Cari H., our boys and I were visiting a fellow mama and her two boys a couple of weeks ago, she made us carrot and zucchini pancakes for breakfast one morning. She said her oldest son devours them (he’s the same age as N and a few months younger than TJ). Admittedly we were skeptical, imagining our veggie-averting [...]
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
My husband requested that I make a batch of oatmeal chocolate chip cookies for his birthday last month. I’m not a big fan of oatmeal cookies, but I found a recipe that really takes the cake. These cookies are soft and chewy and didn’t get hard even after sitting out for a while. It’s a [...]
Making Your Own Baby Food
A hot topic that seems to have developed over the past few years is whether or not you should make your own baby food. As a new mama, I did a little research and found that making your own baby food is easy, cheap and overall a very healthy option for your little ones. How [...]
