As a mom who occasionally (ok, frequently) gets caught up in the busy mom stereotype of messy buns, t-shirts, sweatpants, and hurried lunches of half-eaten pb&j remnants, it's nice to get a little bit fancy with things some of the time. Fancy around here means clean clothes, fresh hairstyles on the kids, and maybe even a shower for me!
A healthier waffle that the whole family will get excited about. These Healthy Chocolate Chip Waffles are so good on their own, you don't even need maple syrup! (But I won't tell if you drizzle some on anyways.) Some mornings, it's harder to get out of bed than others.
Gingerbread bundt cake full of warming spices and topped with a maple glaze and crystallized ginger oat streusel. Disclosure: This post was sponsored by Hodgson Mill. All opinions are 100% my own. One of my most fondest memories about the holidays when I was growing up, was getting to visit one of my parents' dear friends.
Meyer lemon season is slowly coming to an end but not before we make this Meyer lemon tart. It's creamy, think custard, with a sweet and floral taste from the Meyer lemons, used both in the custard and as a topping. I've been dreaming of making this tart for so long.
Light and fluffy cake with a soft and tender crumb, this chocolate cake relies on the rich flavor of cocoa powder complemented with thin layer of coffee frosting. Tiffany started pre-k today. It's been a tough decision for us.
How is it already back to school time? The summer went way too fast. I know I don't' have to go back to school and Caleb is still too young, but still. I am not ready for fall just yet. I still want to enjoy the summer sun and pretend I am on summer break.
My post today has a decidedly red theme, beginning with a trip to historic downtown Branson, MO, where I bought a checkered red apron, a speckled red ladle, and fresh red raspberries. My parents visited us last week, they live out of the country and only get to visit every few years.

This easy no-bake recipe for Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Stuffed Nutter Butters is made with eggless cookie dough. What's not to love about cookie dough? I'm not talking about cookie dough that is used for baking! I mean the cookie dough that is for eating.
Growing up, I was always a little disappointed about having a summer birthday. It seemed like the kids who had birthdays during the rest of the year got lots of extra attention at school, and I thought I was missing out. Of course, now that I'm older, I can see all kinds of benefits to having a summer birthday.
