  • Simple and Delish: How To Make Pumpkin Spice Puree

    October 13, 2021 /

    Pumpkin Spice Latte season is upon us! I have never had luck finding a store bought creamer I liked, but when I fell upon the DIY recipe world I was determined to find a mix that fit my taste buds! I love this recipe because it’s adjustable to each person, it’s fun to play around with, it keeps well in the fridge, and it’s great on so many things, not just coffee! So let’s get started and let’s make some homemade PSL! Homemade Pumpkin Spice Puree First step is to gather your ingredients!

    With 2020 throwing all sorts of curve balls our way, the holiday season is officially turned on its head. We want to give our kids all the same holiday spirit and joy as years past.

    September 10, 2020 /

    Guess who’s back? Back again? Brownies back. Tell a frienddddd!!! Okayyyy. Yes. Brownies are BACK and they are BETTER than before. Simplified recipe. Still the same fudgy goodness. And SKILLET approved! Feel free to make these in your favorite 8×8 bakeware. you can double the brownie batch for a 9 x 13 dish. But my personal recommendation, turn this simplified fudgy brownie recipe into a brownie pizza by using your favorite cast iron skillet for an epically amazing brownie show down. I love this recipe because it’s a simplified version of our original brownie recipe. Easier ingredient measurements. Still the same awesome one bowl for mixing. Less dishes means more…

    This is normally where someone writes a long and intense narrative about their Saturday morning. How the winter white surrounded their woodland cabin. How the smell of their Foldgers engulfed the kitchen as it was warmed by their wood burning stove. How these pancakes changed their life. That isn’t going to happen here. I know what you want. You want the goods. And I wanted to try multiple ‘from scratch’ recipes to ensure I had in fact found the best one. Well, IT IS TIME.

    Yesterday was a half cake day. What’s a half cake day you ask? Well, let me tell you. It’s a day where everything is spinning out of control and you JUST. NEED. IT. ALL. TO. SLOW. DOWN. So. You make a cake. The process of scooping, mixing, baking, cooling, flipping, more cooling, whipping, frosting, and all of the waiting in between has a very therapeutic effect. I’m forced to slow down, let go of the lesser important things and focus on myself, and the eager little hands around me. The links in the post are a part of the Amazon Affiliates Program.

Tomato & Basil is our fave, but so many of their flavors would go well with this dish! I was surprised how simple it was to make cauliflower rice, which is a stellar alternative for those on Keto, Whole30 or Paleo diets. I loved this recipe and hope you do too!

Today’s mini declutter: pick a drawer! Any drawe Today’s mini declutter: pick a drawer! Any drawer! 
And for those of us feeling extra bold today… you can go for the least fave, most stressful drawer in the house. I know we all have one. 😉 
Today I picked what I call the “husband drawer” which is this lovely spot inside our laundry room right when we walk in from the garage. It’s Eric’s space to put all his pocketish items (that’s a word, right?) and any other random things that men acquire. Why do they acquire all these random things?! 
I took a quick 10 and reset it this morning. And I have to tell you, just KNOWING it is peaceful behind that closed drawer is making me feel so good! ☀️
So tell me, which drawer will you be refreshing today?!
Each week I pick one focus to tweak my life a bit, Each week I pick one focus to tweak my life a bit, simplify when needed, and try to make sure I’m doing my part to take care of myself. I call this my weekly • go simple task • and there’s a big ole blank space in my planner to fill in and dream up the life I want to cultivate for myself. 
Sometimes the task is big: last week was spring swap for the whole house and family! 😅
And some weeks it’s small: like this week, it’s a mini declutter spree, whatever space I feel needs my attention each day.
Join in with me this week as I commit to decluttering a small spot in my home each day. And add in a self care task for yourself too! Yoga is my jam, what is yours?!
Today’s mini declutter: kitchen counters! Will you be joining in? Let me know how they go for you in the comments! 🤎
When it’s almost dinner time, your husband is ou When it’s almost dinner time, your husband is out of town and your kid gets sick out of nowhere and you have to take four kids into town solo for emergency meds. 
BUT then on the way to town your low fuel light comes on, because in your marriage you are the low fuel light person. 🤦🏻‍♀️😬 
So what do you do?! You panic call husband because it’s a school night and nobody’s eaten and now you have to make multiple stops in town. And he saves the day by remote ordering curbside dinner from @kwiktrip via the Kwik Rewards app. 
So you get gas, then you just pull up to a parking spot AND THEY BRING YOU A FULL MADE TO ORDER DINNER RIGHT TO YOUR CAR WINDOW! 😭😩🤩 
I cannot tell you how thankful I was when they walked that dinner bag out to me. Small town service with modern day perks. Reason 184726384972 why we love @kwiktrip! 😍
It’s no secret on here I try to be mindful of ou It’s no secret on here I try to be mindful of our family’s screen time. It’s also no secret that this is a constant work in progress, with daily slip ups on our goals, especially my personal ones. 
I try to dedicate weekends to no social, but yesterday I felt a strong pull to take a weekday and step away. The insane productivity I have when eliminating social always blows my mind. And the sweet slowness of afternoons with toddlers at home while the bigs are at school are impossibly perfect and it kills me I lose so many of them to these digital spaces. 
Yesterday we took a walk, albeit not a very productive one. 😂 We found tons of ladybugs (or imposters?!). We looked at all the flower buds. We spruced up some outdoor decor spots. We sipped tea for an hour and played pretend (not my fave thing but it was so fun to watch my girls’ imagination at work). 
I love so much about this space. The creative inspiration. The connection, motivation and accountability. There are positives here. And I’m so thankful for them. 
There are also so many opportunities lost when I give my time to here too. Afternoons like yesterday are the perfect reminder to reinforce my personal tech boundaries. Because this is it. We only get this life once. And yesterday was such a good reminder to me in how I want to spend it.
