It's been a while since I've done a post like this, and I figured it was time! I love hearing what other moms recommend when it comes to feeding their family, so I wanted to share with you what we've been enjoying! I usually keep a list of meal ideas and recipes on my free Evernote account (my FAVORITE note-taking service, because it syncs between your phone and computer). Some of our recent favorite meals also come from a quick screenshot I took when someone else shared a meal idea on … [Read more...]
BBQ Ranch Pork Nachos
It's been quite some time since I've last shared a recipe! But that doesn't mean I haven't been enjoying cooking! I always enjoy finding new recipes and cooking fun meals for my family. I used to share recipes here more frequently but time sure flies when you have two little ones, and I haven't been actively creating new recipes of my own for a while...until recently! The recipe I'm sharing with you today started out as a Plan B for supper one night this winter, and is now one of our … [Read more...]
Soren’s Little Blue Truck First Birthday Party
I love party planning, especially themed parties! I don't go completely over the top, but I sure enjoy creating a special celebration for our kids and centering it around a theme. I'm excited to share today's post with you! It's hard to believe our son Soren is a one-year-old already! Time sure has flown by. He's such a happy, inquisitive, busy boy, and has been such a blessing to us all! Since we love the "Little Blue Truck" books in our family, I decided to go with a Little Blue … [Read more...]
Our Family’s Favorite Crockpot Meals (11 Recipes!)
It's been cold for quite a while here in Minnesota! Our good old crockpot comes out every winter (and often stays around for longer than that)! I used to bring it out almost begrudgingly, because while I knew it brought us added convenience, I always felt like slow cooker meals were a bit of a downgrade. I just didn't like how they all felt like one texture! (Can anyone else relate?) A meal really loses its appeal when it's all one texture. But it turns out, I just needed to experiment a lot, … [Read more...]
Sophie’s Zoo-Themed 3rd Birthday Party
Sophie turned 3 on October 16! It's hard to believe she's been a 3-year-old for a month already. Where has the time gone? Like we do every year, we had an early birthday party for Sophie (her birthday falls right in the middle of our busy harvest season around here!). But it's still just as special - plus, I'm of the opinion that having your birthday party on a different day than your birthday just spreads the celebration out more! How fun! :) Celebrating a couple weeks later on her actual … [Read more...]
Crockpot Apple Pear Spice Cake
Happy fall, friends! It certainly feels like autumn in Minnesota today! It feels like 51 degrees here - windy, blustery, and lovely with leaves starting to change! The kids and I went on a walk this morning and we definitely needed to bundle up in this wind! I'm trying something new today and sharing a recipe via video! If you haven't heard yet, I have a YouTube channel as well, where I share snippets of our daily life, food, homeschooling, and more. I'd be honored if you'd head over there to … [Read more...]
Coffeeless Whipped Coffee Recipe
Finally, here's an easy recipe for whipped coffee…without the coffee! This coffeeless "Dalgona coffee" recipe lets you enjoy the new whipped coffee trend without the caffeine! In this post, I'm sharing how you can use a particular coffee substitute to make delicious whipped coffee! It's a great Dalgona coffee alternative. Let me back up a little. If you've followed me on Instagram or here on the blog for a while, then you know I'm a huge fan of coffee shops! In my mind, there's nothing better … [Read more...]
Peanut Butter Oat Chocolate Chip Energy Balls
I'm excited to share today's post with you because it involves one of our very favorite snacks! We make these all. the. time. In our family we call these "yummy balls" and it's basically an emergency when our stash runs out! :) I've shared these already over on my Instagram, but I wanted to make sure the recipe was accessible here, too. I know there are many energy balls or energy bites recipes out there. But my favorite has to be this one, because this recipe - while still kind of sugary - … [Read more...]
