This is a re-post of some cookies I’ve been drooling to make all season. I just figured I’d share again because they’re probably my favorite cookie. Ever. Yes, even better than “Rita’s Chocolate Chip” ones. And that means they must be pretty dang good. I need to make these again ASAP, and you may want…
Since we don’t have a whole slew of sugar or processed foods at our house I like to have something I can whip up on a whim…especially when we have a houseful of kids. This recipe is the best one to make while all the neighborhood kids are gathered around the kitchen island because of…
The minute the weather starts to cool down under 99 degrees around here my brain automatically goes into pumpkin baking mode. There’s something about Fall that makes me just crave pumpkin chocolate chip stuff like nobody’s business. My friend’s chocolate chip muffins are back HERE.

Last year we made “Easter Story Cookies” to help our kids further connect Easter with the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It was a rushed event because we ran out of time after all the other hoopla we tried to squeeze in, but we did it. There’s a story to go along with…
I have some gift ideas for the mothers in your life. Because mothers deserve to be celebrated. And with that celebration there should probably be a little pampering, right? I mean, I was just with Abby and Murphy and was reminded the of the motherhood wrestle that happens with babies and small kids. And all…
Since it’s April I better get my booty in gear and get our “2024 Snapshot” published! I like to do this at the beginning of each year so I can freeze that “moment” in time. I want to remember how it felt right here and now when I’m looking back some day. Let’s start with…
