Happy Cinco De Mayo! I’ve heard that America celebrates this much more than Mexico, but regardless this is just another great excuse for my husband’s favorite food! He loves all Mexican food and tonight is having some guys over to watch the Oklahoma City Thunder game. So I decided to make him some homemade guacamole to share (or not share) with his friends.

I have been planning this fun bunny breakfast for a while! I cannot do it Easter morning since we attend a sunrise breakfast at our church. So I made it this weekend instead 🙂
So, I had a lady’s ministry get together last night. When asked to bring a snack to share I usually feel obligated to bake something. As a stay-at-home mom of three littles, who I homeschool (don’t get me started on how much time I spend doing just that!), and I have 5 part time jobs I do to help our family financially while I stay home… I just didn’t feel like baking! So I ran to the store.
So we just traveled home today after a nice week’s vacation at my parents house. It was obvious all the way home that my children had just left their Irish Grandmother’s house very close to St. Patrick’s Day! All the way home we heard them chattering about gold, leprechauns and shamrocks 🙂 I adore watching them listen to my mother’s stories. Seeing their eyes light up hearing about Irish folklore and traditions makes my heart warm. So when we got home I decided it would be a fun treat to make Irish soda bread together.
Rainbow fun in our house this week with my kids as we approach St. Patrick’s Day! Who doesn’t love pancakes?! Well my kids had a blast making these bright and yummy pancakes 🙂 Continue reading “A Short Stack of Happiness!”
I don’t know about you but it seems like a lot of people I know are sick! I personally have battled a sore throat and sinus congestion all week. One of my favorite immune boosters is elderberry tea. My kids won’t take elderberry syrup, trust me I’ve tried. Although when it comes to my tea… they beg for it! This winter has seen much less sickness in our house and I know my tea is one of the reasons.
My kids love to cook. This morning they asked to make something we could share at lunchtime. So I came up with hot chocolate pudding cups. Simple, yummy and cute… Continue reading “Hot Chocolate Pudding”
It’s Christmas season! Our house is in full crazy schedule mode and I have barely had a chance to slow down. Sound familiar? Between Christmas parties, homeschool, church events and family stuff we are doing with the kids I have barely been home. Sadly enough blogging has taken a backseat this month. I usually post DIY Christmas gifts I’m making as I go. So better late than never, here is a simple recipe for a yummy gift I’m giving to some friends this year!
