  • RECIPE :: Half Cake Day

    March 5, 2020 /

    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. This means I get a small percentage back…

    October 4, 2019 /

    If you’re a mom and you were born after 1980, chances are you’ve made protein balls a time or two. We’ve tried a ton of recipes on Pinterest, but this has by far been our favorite hybrid of them all. So today we wanted to share our fave protein ball recipe with you. We think a few additional simple pantry ingredients really add some flavor you’ll like too! Ingredients 1 cup oats 3/4 cup nut butter of choice 1/2 cup crushed pretzels 1/2 cup chia seeds 1/3 cup honey 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips 1 TBSP coconut oil (melted) 1 tsp vanilla extract Substitutes To make your protein balls nut…

    July 23, 2019 /

    So easy. So quick. So Fresh. So simple. This recipe is a new go to in our household. And even better yet if you use these awesome chicken sausages from Aldi! 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!

    June 26, 2019 /

    Throwing up the link to this recipe because it is free of refined sugars, gluten, dairy, and (if you want) egg! Also because my oatmeal despising four year old just asked for thirds! We did decide to throw a few chocolate chips on the top before baking, which, yum. But also, not necessary if you’re limiting your sugars. This healthy baked oatmeal recipe from Joy Food Sunshine knocked it out of the park for our first attempt at the dish, and we can’t wait to try some more versions!

    April 11, 2019 /

    I went from a Zuppa Toscana virgin to a “holy crap lets make this twice a month” addict overnight people. And it’s all because of this sweet sweet copycat recipe! And don’t take this lightly when I say the whole family is obsessed. Hubs right through the four and two year olds all have seconds (and some thirds) when we make this soup. Also, if you prefer actual onion to onion powder (too much work for me, and my tear ducts!), then feel free to sub a medium chopped onion for the powder. You’ll add it in with the bacon after bacon is cooked crispy and drained. Sautee a few…

    I’ve been loving the rhythm we’ve added to our dinners lately. Giving each weekday a theme makes it so much easier to meal plan and prep. It also adds great predictably for our children. Slow Cooker Saturday has surprisingly become one of their faves. To learn more about how we plan a months worth of dinners in 10 minutes, and get the free printable I use to do it, click here! I never thought my toddlers would eat soup, let alone beg for seconds. But getting their little hands involved, which is super easy with dump and set crock pot dinners, has them so intrigued and excited to sample the…

    I’m going to give it to you straight, these were the best, and easiest brownies I’ve made to date! So good. So fudgy. And only one bowl required. One bowl recipes are my kind of recipes. It’s a really great recipe because it uses things I always keep stocked in my pantry, so I can pull up this recipe and whip up a pan of brownies in no time. Perfect for days like today, when we are in a Wisconsin blizzard warning! The links in the post are a part of the Target Affiliates Program.

It’s the ONLY cookbook we have in our home. And every recipe I make out of here is legit GOLD (no pun intended). The links in the post are a part of the Amazon Affiliates Program.

I haven’t had a Kindle in years. A few things I am loving about the kindle now: 
Libby app has a ‘Skip The Line’ section. I check it regularly to grab new titles I’m waitlisted forever on. It’s like the library’s Lucky Shelf, but for e-books!
You can change your screensaver to the book cover of your current read. Makes it feel more bookish. 😂
That it is so slim it fits in my cute little ‘mom of big kids’ purse so I don’t have to lug a full sized book everywhere with me. 
Dark mode, a night vision option, so I don’t feel like I’m staring at a screen at night in bed. 😂
Have a kindle tip to share? I’m all ears!
In other news… Saturday’s are meant for coffee and books in bed and I won’t have it any other way. Well… until the kids get older and we probably have to start sacrificing these slow mornings for activities. 😅 Until then… you can find me here. 🥰

We used to rug. But they’re heavy, they don’t dry, they fall apart when you wash them regularly. Just so many reasons not to. 
So now, we hang a small towel nearby and lay it down when we shower. 
We hang it up to dry when we are done. 
And it gets washed regularly. 
Simple. 
What do you think? Team bathroom rug? Or no rug?
