Recipes We’ve Been Loving Lately (+ a peek at what we’re trying this week!)

August 26, 2019 |

Maybe it's pregnancy, nesting, or it's just a new fun "hobby," but I've been really into finding new recipes recently! Some of them have been healthy and some have been...well, not healthy, but definitely still delicious! :) Bjorn was gone for a month this summer for army, and that's when I got a bit carried away with desserts! Hypothetically, it's a little dangerous for me as a pregnant mama to sit home alone with my daughter and a huge batch of raspberry dark chocolate cookies. … [Read more...]

Easy Shepherd’s Pie

August 1, 2019 |

What?! Another recipe so soon? :) Yep! This is a favorite meal in our family. I actually have to try hard not to make it once a week, because I really don't want us to get tired of it! :) If you're in the market for an easy supper recipe that's full of flavor (and nutritious veggies!), then you'll have to try this out. Shepherd's pie is another type of hot dish or casserole, and this meal is definitely one to have ready in your arsenal when your family is hungry and it's time for something … [Read more...]

May 16, 2019 |

If you've been around here for a while, then you know I have the tendency to be pretty ambitious with recipes and party planning! The rest of the time, I try not to go "all out" in my everyday life. :) But when I get bit by the party planning bug (and that usually includes the baking bug!), I get really excited. I love the whole process. Today I wanted to share with you what all I made for our Mother's Day tea party! A COUPLE OF OUR PAST PARTIES THAT I LOVED PLANNING:Our Gender Reveal … [Read more...]

What’s For Dinner Wednesday (4 More Meal Ideas)

February 13, 2019 |

How is it Wednesday already?! It's been a weird week around here, since we got back into town on Sunday night (Bjorn had had army training at Fort Knox for a week, and Sophie and I were in the Twin Cities that week, helping my mom after she broke her arm). And then Tuesday was a snow day (the 6th or 7th one this year?!) and we had a 2-hour late start this morning. Whew! Anyway, it's high time to get back into routines around here, and one of my favorite weekly things to do is to get our What's … [Read more...]
