My husband’s favorite time of year is Autumn. I think he loves the changing of the colors, the reds, oranges, and yellows, the crisp morning air, and even pulling out some long sleeve clothes to wear. I love those things and would adore Fall if I wasn’t so scared about winter coming on its heals. […]

Have you ever tried real stevia extract? Homemade Stevia extract is actually quite easy to make if you have the ingredients. Now, the reason I ask if you’ve tasted it before is because stevia really does have a very unique after taste. Most people do not know that, because all they have tasted is the […]

It’s a challenge sometimes to provide snacks for my kids that are healthier than the average, overly processed, dye filled snacks. In an effort to keep it real, I make Homemade Chocolate Chip Granola Bars with Chia Seeds for extra protein. Well, actually one of my boys makes them usually. They are simple and you […]

This party mix is totally amazing! It is so delicious and can be made within minutes. Now, this is in NO way real food….not even close…not nourishing or anything of the like due to the amount of sugar.. BUT, you can make this organic/non GMO very easily!! I never claimed that we don’t eat […]

These are seriously the Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars that I’ve ever tried. They are soft, buttery, and chocolaty all at the same time…seriously dangerous! I’ll admit it. I love a fresh chocolate chip cookie straight out of the oven. I would take that over pretty much any dessert you could name. So when I […]

Summer Berries and Cream means mouthwatering berry de-light! I really love blueberries. We just recently planted a few blueberry bushes that are starting to produce. They take many years to really get to a nice size (about 5 ft tall) where they produce thousands of berries. Until then, we will continue to get excited over […]

A lot of the name brand marshmallows out there have a lot of ingredients that I don’t care, like gmo-corn in 500 different forms and food coloring. We were getting ready to go camping so of course we needed marshmallows to cook at the fire. I had the time and we went ahead and made […]

Monkey Bread is such a delicious treat for breakfast, tea, or any ‘ol time. Making Monkey Bread from Scratch is kind of a rarity today, though. If you look for recipes online you will find plenty that are made from pre-made raw dough which is full of food coloring (yes, a lot have that lovely […]

Each year, my kids and I choose one special dessert to make around Easter time. Easter goodies this year: Chocolate Easter Cupcake Sheep! This year my kids asked me how I could make a cupcake look like a sheep. It’s not exactly healthy, not at all…but we do not eat things like this too often. […]

I guess when I made this Crumb Cake Recipe I referred to it throughout the day as multiple things. Finally, my son asked me, “What is it? Crumb Cake, Coffee Cake, or Spice Cake?” It is what it is. Though I’m sure there is someone out there with a perfect definition of the differences, I grew up […]

I like to keep things simple. Why have 16 recipes for 16 breads, when you can have one or two that you tweak for different needs and uses? That’s what I love about this recipe for Blueberry or Banana bread. It is just that – Blueberry or Banana Bread…or strawberry bread, or banana chocolate chip […]

Hot chocolate is a delicious treat for cold children coming in from playing in the snow. I like having something on hand that has the type of ingredients that I can be happy about. Yes, there is sugar of course, but I want to be able to give my children something that does not have […]

I obviously like to keep things simple; simple and homemade as much as possible. So you know that when I tell you these Easter Egg Nest Cupcakes are easy, that I am being serious. They look like they are so difficult, yet were so fun and easy. My kids helped, which was fun, and then […]
