Apricot-Orange Slow Cooker Chicken is so simple to prepare and is perfectly delicious! Enjoy this lovely, light meal on busy weeknights! I know I’ve said this a bajillion times but I really, really LOVE my slow cooker. I know a lot of people think stay-at-home moms have all the time in the world to prepare [...]
Dark chocolate and cherry peanut butter oat bites make the perfect snack! These crunchy little morsels are perfectly sweetened with dark chocolate and dried cherries. Tomorrow Reece competes in his first swim meet. It’s actually just his team but it’s set up like a real swim meet and gives us new “swim parents” a chance [...]
Time to party again! You guys absolutely killed it last week with tons of mouth-watering recipe and fabulous craft ideas! It’s hard to believe we are halfway through May already! Of course here in Sacramento it’s been feeling like we’re in the middle of July… Fortunately we had a reprieve today and it feels fabulous. Also great [...]
A Red, White, and Blueberry breakfast for Memorial Day weekend or the 4th of July! Can you believe that Memorial Day is just around the corner? I for one am totally looking forward to the three day weekend and all the scrumptious food that I’ll be enjoying :) Reece only has school for a couple [...]

Perfectly delicious Chocolate Toffee No Bake Cookies made with Heath baking bits for those hot summer days! I thought summer had arrived early this year. I mean, we were in the 90s for days, and I was already complaining about the heat and then all of a sudden bam! We’ve had rain for the last few [...]
Make your own deliciously fragrant Coffee Sugar Scrub at home! Wonderful for exfoliation and can be made with ingredients you already have on hand! Every year for Mother’s Day I try really hard to focus on all the positives in my life. My own sweet mother passed away years ago and as much as I [...]
Allergies. Ugghh. They seem to get worse every year around here! This year we had winds like you wouldn’t believe that have extended the usual allergy season – not fun. In addition to the extra tissue that we stock up on during allergy season I like to remind the boys – daily, if necessary – [...]
Flashback: Chris and I are on our way to visit his parents in the Bay Area. We’re relatively new parents. Reece is just a few months old. About halfway through our trip (about 45 minutes in) we hear some gurgling from the back. And it’s not the gurgling that comes from that sweet baby mouth. [...]
