We have done a few muffin tin meals in the time I have been on a blogging break. I thought I would post them up here. This one must have been around Valentines Day. The girls love the GoGo squeeZ applesauce. This is our "Foods From Around the World" MTM.... Continue reading

Well, I took a bit of a hiatus from blogging. You know, sometimes life gets in the way of blogging, ;) We had some changes in our family schedule, due to my hubby getting a new job with the company he works for. He has always worked a straight midnight... Continue reading

I came so close to not making a muffin tin for the girls tonight. It has been a very fun but also very tiring weekend, spent with lots of family time on both my hubby's and my sides. I barely remember saying that we would have a muffin tin today,... Continue reading

Easy Everything Muffins
Image
I made up a new recipe. I just realized within the 6 months or so how easy it is to bake from scratch. I used to always just use baking mixes and premixed cookie dough. And muffins are especially easy. I had some bananas in the freezer I needed to... Continue reading

Cooking With My Girlies
Image
I try to always let the girls help me in the kitchen whenever they are interested in helping. Which is most of the time. I have noticed I get a lot more buy in on eating or trying new things if they have helped prepare the meal. They love tasting... Continue reading

The girls and I had a little pumpkin carving party. We put the movie Corpse Bride on, and pulled up Pinterest on the computer to look for carving inspiration. Once we had our ideas set, it was time to start getting the pumpkin "guts" out. Last year, Big Sis was... Continue reading

I heard a quote on the radio today by some celeb mom that says she doesn't get caught up in what she looks like or wears, because the things that define her are much bigger than that. That statement hit home with me. Although I didn't realize it until I... Continue reading

MTM-Spooky

The favorite word at our house lately is "SPOOOOky". The girls are in the Halloween spirit, and we did a little decorating around the house with spiderwebs, skeletons, and spiders. We topped the whole thing off with a bloody handprint gel cling on the window. So I made a nice... Continue reading

I always feel like I am trying to cram everything that needs to be done in my life into this tiny little time frame. I am sure every working mom (or every non working mom, for that matter) feels the same way. I had wanted to do a Circus theme... Continue reading

Right when I was getting home from work tonight, I heard the little musical tinkling of the local Ice Cream Truck. We have been waiting all summer for a chance to get ice cream treats from the truck, so even though it was right before supper, we flagged him down... Continue reading

So last year, Andy and I planted our first garden. It did ok, and we learned a bunch of things. We ended up giving away quite a bit of produce last year. Last year I wanted to try to do some canning, but never really was able to do it,... Continue reading
