Holiday Baking Kit

Throughout the year, I'm always looking for ways to incorporate "acts of kindness," activities for my kiddos & I to do together. Last Spring, we made Gooey Butter Cookies, wrapped them up in adorable little boxes with a quick little gift tag, and we went about the neighborhood, delivering happiness. My boys were able to experience "giving," and got some fresh air while we were at it. ;) Holiday Baking KitWe all know that the holiday season is all about giving, and being kind to others. It's FULL of opportunity and excuses to perform acts of kindness with your littles! To get...

Elegant and Sophisticated Free Printable Gift Tags

There are honestly so many things you can waste your money on during the holidays. One of those things are gift tags! Really, it is only a temporary name tag so you know which gift goes to which person. They are not something I really want to spend a lot of money on. But, I have to admit, I love to make things pretty. I love giving gifts that are beautiful even before you unwrap them. Maybe that's just me, but I think a lot of women like to give "pretty" gifts.So that is why I created these elegant and...

Sweet & Salty: Pumpkin Seed Recipe

I had never had any interest in roasting pumpkin seeds, until my youngest came along and literally eats anything & everything "crunchy." Combine it with a fun activity to do with the kiddos? Golden.Pumpkin Seed Recipe I adore this recipe, because you can make it salty or sweet; depending on the mood you're in! If it were just for me?? I'd probably put a little chili powder on them, to give them a little "kick." But if kiddos are partaking in the snacking, boiling them in sugar instead of salt, and topping with cinnamon and/or brown sugar, may be more up their...

Happy “Pops” Day! Father’s Day Gift Idea
