If I could give a title to this week it would be "man down!" A nasty virus hit the house early this week, taking out both littles. From the way I feel at the moment, it looks like I'm going to be the next victim. I'm grateful that this happened after my big testing weeks at work and have been able to use time to snuggle my sicklings. Praying they're both back to their usual wild and crazy ways next week! Lets get to some favorites on this Friday...evening. ONE I'm definitely sleep deprived and have been running on Dunkin Donuts Coconut Creme Coffee. Have you had it? If you like coconut, ... read more

Strawberry Banana Mini Loaves
The strawberry recipes keep on coming and I'm not done yet! When I took the littles strawberry picking last month, we had SO many strawberries left over. So many. When thinking of things to bake with all the strawberries, I thought about what would be easiest to share with the neighbors. Therefore, muffins and breads were what I decided on. They're easy to give, can make enough to share with a bunch of different families and don't call for an abundance of ingredients, making them inexpensive to make. Especially since we picked the strawberries, getting a great deal on them. Before making ... read more

Easter favorites... Holidays make me happy. Decorating for them. Crafting for them. Shopping for them. Getting out and doing things around town with the kids to celebrate them.

Over the past 7 years of this little blog being around, I've shared a lot of Easter posts. From family recaps to recipes to crafts with kids to party ideas. Today, I've got a roundup ... read more

Strawberry Baked Donuts
Strawberry Baked Donuts.... Donuts are a weekly treat in our house. AG and I stop once a week for a donut on Friday mornings on the way to school and we have also been known to go once on the weekend. The kids favorite part are always the sprinkles, most of the time only eating the top portion of the donuts just to get all the good stuff. I'm a fan too, except for the calories that come with. When we lived in Texas, I used to make donuts every weekend instead of buying them. There wasn't a Dunkin Donuts anywhere in the area, so making them became something I looked forward to. I tried out ... read more
