It’s that time of year again where we are ready for a good Cleaning House Spring Cleaning – deep clean the house, reorganize the drawers, rotate the closets……everything must be cleaned and organized or donated – this will be our mind-set for the next couple weeks!! The typical Spring Cleaning House used to be a pretty painless Saturday chore. However, now with 3 Little Chefs running around wanting to help out or making messes faster than I can keep things {Read More}

No more flimsy aluminum pans will be used at my house!! These are amazing – they are disposable baking dishes that lets you take your food from oven to table to freezer to microwave, all in a non-stick pan. So, I don’t need to worry about taking a meal or treat to a potluck or neighbor and worrying about loosing my favorite permanent pan (which seems to have happened quite a few times!). And these pans look great, and pretty sturdy {Read More}

We even planted some of our vegetable garden last weekend – broccoli, onions, spinach, kale, and cauliflower. Most of those vegetables like the cooler weather….but not FREEZING weather! The Little Chefs have been so worried {Read More}

The Little Chefs LOVE these type of crafts – {Read More}

In addition to the Space Ship Craft – I thought it would be fun to teach my Little Chefs the different Phases of the Moon. Each night, especially in the Summer time, they love to find the Moon – to see what “shape” it is. I have said before, that my Little Chefs and I LOVE Oreos! And while eating them one day, Little Chef E realized that the creme looked like a Moon. So I thought – what a {Read More}

Along with the colored eggs and baskets filled with candy, Easter also means a Honey Baked Ham for dinner. As we thought about what to go {Read More}
