Have you ever considered if your family needs a home beverage fridge? There have been many days when I wanted to chill a bottle of water or juice and there was simply NOT any room in my refrigerator. Do you ever have that problem? Some days I wish for another fridge all together! Our family loves drinks. We do not keep a lot of soda, but we for sure keep juice, sparkling water, and sparkling juice! All of this hydration is good, but View Post
This Apple Cider recipe post was brought to you by Juicy Juice, but all opinions are mine! My kids love Juicy Juice apple juice, but I wanted to introduce them to apple cider! I was looking at the Juicy Juice website because it has lots of fun crafts and recipe ideas, and I saw a recipe for Juicy Juice Apple Cider and I knew we had to try it! It was super simple to make and minus the cutting of the oranges, the kids would be able to View Post
We live in Texas, so there is not really a specific "grilling season" or "BBQ season." The only time you cannot grill in Texas is when it is stormy outside, and even then, some may argue with that. Some of our favorite meals are made on the grill, from chicken wings, to fajitas, to of course, hamburgers and hot dogs! I love grilling because it is all contained into one cooking area, instead of dirtying up different pots and pans, View Post

School is back in session or will be soon all across America. Whether your family is doing in person school, virtual learning, homeschooling, or another variety of schooling, I believe that every teacher deserves a little teacher gift basket at the beginning of school. Yes, even if the parent is the teacher! What should go into a teacher gift basket? When I taught kindergarten, I liked to stock up with essentials before the school View Post

How to make Strawberry Icing! My husband and sons have many things in common, but their love of strawberries is a strong bond that they all share! I love strawberries, too, but I prefer them paired with chocolate like in my Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cake recipe. We have poundcake or angel food cake with strawberries and whipped cream often, but my kids really love homemade strawberry cake with homemade strawberry icing. It's always a View Post
