Rainbow Bread

Yesterday, I shared our most favorite sandwich bread recipe ever!  It truly is the best sandwich bread!  Today, I am going to share how we took this bread and made Rainbow Bread! During the Christmas break, we had lots of family in town, spent about 4 days in a hotel, and had a big wedding […]

Best of the Best Sandwich Bread

I’ve been on a bit of a health kick this past year.  After reading Wheat Belly (affiliate link) we tried cutting out all wheat from our diet.  What I found was that even though we were eating gluten free, we were eating a ton more processed foods.  I didn’t like the effects. Because we didn’t actually […]

2015 Calendar

Happy New Year!  I hope everyone had a safe and happy night.  Our family made fun rainbow bread (I’ll post about it soon), and then we played late with neighbors.  The kids thought it was so much fun to be outside at night.  After the kiddies got into bed, the hubby and I had a […]

Great Cookies, Great Christmas, Great Gatsby

It has been a crazy holiday!  Today is the first day that I’ve had to sit down during nap time to do anything for myself.  So you’re getting a quick recap in pictures of what we’ve been doing for the past month. Unfortunately for us, the flu hit right at holiday time.  The boys had […]

Christmas Meal Planning with a laminator

I promised I would do a better job blogging for Christmas after dropping the ball during Thanksgiving.  That promise was before the big ol’ nasty F-L-U hit our house.  Bad stuff!  Piggy One was at Children’s Urgent Care for 6 hours with a 105.6 temp. and I thought we would have to admit him if it […]

Paper Bag Advent Calendar

I know, I know – I promised a lot more Thanksgiving posts, but the truth is, I was too busy getting ready for Thanksgiving to post about it.  I’ll try to do a better job next time. I will also try to be a better blogger during Christmas.  Who am I kidding?!  I’ve got 16 […]

Cornucopia Treats

This week has been cray-to-the-Z!  Like most of the word, we’ve got company coming in for a week Thanksgiving, and my little Piggies both had their Thanksgiving Feast at pre-school.  Thankfully I was not in charge of either one this year! Piggy One’s homeroom mom is a Pinterest dream come to life!  His room was […]

Naughty or Nice

Warning!  This post is about Christmas, Santa, and that pesky Elf on the Shelf.  If you’ve still got Halloween decorations up, you may want to move along and hold on for a few more weeks until we can get Thanksgiving out of the way. So, along with the time-change this year, behavior problems seemed to […]

Thanksgiving Meal Planner

Hi friends!  Can you believe it’s the middle of November?  Did you get that?  N-O-V-E-M-B-E-R!  It seems like we were in swimsuits just a few weeks ago. As I was doing our grocery planning this week, I realized that the next time I grocery shop, it will be for Thanksgiving and all the activities that […]

Packing List

We just got back from a trip to the beach.  It was a much needed Fall break, and who doesn’t smile when watching the tide come in?  While getting ready to go, I had a million little packing notes everywhere around the house.  I realized I should make one main packing list, and then I […]
