Do you have stale bagels hanging around in your kitchen that you forgot about? I never seem to be able to eat them fast enough and I don’t like them once they’ve been frozen. So, what do you do? Well, I’ll tell you – don’t throw them out! You can make crunchy, flavorful bagel chips […]
Here’s a cute little healthy and patriotic breakfast, lunch or snack for you and the kids! It’s all red, white and blue, all healthy and no added sugar. All you do is layer each thing on top of each other until it’s filled up to the top. I topped it with a flag, too, to […]
Last weekend was Trevor’s birthday and he insisted on not having a cake. He wanted a weekend of all his favorite foods instead. From fancy doughnuts (see below for DG Doughnuts!) to deli sandwiches, we ate it all. The problem was the girls desperately wanted to have a birthday candle in something. So, we decided […]
I stay home with both girls, so I eagerly await Friday every week. By the time it comes around, I’m so tired. So, I tend to make something easy for dinner. Tonight’s dinner is bite-sized chicken served with ketchup and veggies. It’s perfect to make on a hot night because I can use the air […]
I never really liked eggs until I was pregnant with Amelia, about 6 years ago. Ever since then, I’ve eaten them everyday! I love a good fried egg over a creamy piece of avocado toast. The combination is *chef’s kiss*! But sometimes, I want something a bit different. So today, I decided to mash them […]

Every now and again, I go in waves with red meat. I either really enjoy it or really despise it. I’m currently in the later camp, so I’m focusing more on fish, chicken and vegetarian dishes. You’d think that would really limit my food options, but it just makes me get more creative with what […]
In England, there is a snack/dessert called Flapjacks. These are very similar to granola bars but sweeter. You can mix any kind of add-ins you want, like chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, etc… or just eat them as is. Golden Syrup is where a lot of the sweetness comes from – it’s a cross between […]
At the end of every summer, I’m always left with a bounty of basil. I’m never sure what to do with it so I feel like every year, I’m googling ways to use it. I’ve frozen some in ice cube trays, I’ve mixed it in with dinners and appetizers for an entire week and I […]
When the summer heat starts to fade and the cooler weather sets in, I always think cake. Specifically, this chocolate pear upside-down cake! It’s beyond easy to make and is so warming. It also makes the house smell AMAZZZZZING while it’s baking! The pears are so sweet this time of year so it’s really the […]
