My son is obsessed with Nutella! If you follow our Instagram stories, you know he eats a peanut butter and Nutella sandwich almost every day! Which is why I knew he’d love these Easy Nuttela Croissants. They’re the perfect afterschool snack or after-dinner treat.
These Easy Nutella Croissants are so easy and delicious that you’ll be thanking me all day. I paired them with a side of fresh fruit and served them as an afterschool snack and my 7-year-old just loved them- we both did! [Read more…]
Gotta Catch ‘Em All, Pokémon! Anyone with a little one into Pokémon knows that catch-phrase like the back of their hand. My seven-year-old son is officially obsessed with Pokémon so making these DIY Pokémon Ornaments for him just seemed so fitting. Check out my easy instruction below
I don’t usually make ornaments but my son spotted these online for a hefty price and my immediate thought was, “I can make that”! I wasn’t sure he’d actually say yes, OK Mom go ahead and make me those, but of course, [Read more…]
This Halloween Science Activity is one of our favorite baking soda and vinegar experiments. I love putting together fun activities that are themed around holidays and one of my 7-years-olds favorite holidays is Halloween so, of course, I had to put together a baking soda and vinegar activity.
It’s 85° and officially Fall in Florida! I know what you’re thinking…85°?! But yes, as soon as the temperature drops below 90° we break out our favorite Fall recipes, and that includes this yummy Hamburger Soup.
Soup is always a favorite meal in the Fall and Winter for most people. Even for Floridians like me! There’s something about the feeling of good hearty food that warms your bones when it’s cold outside. That feeling of warmth spreads all over and immediate satisfaction through food is achieved.

It’s pumpkin season and I’m here for it! For the past few years, I’v been obsessed with this Pillsbury Quick Pumpkin Bread mix. It makes pumpkin bread and muffins so much easier to make in a hurry without compromising taste. Check out these delicious Pumpkin Streusel Muffins and thank me later!
I use this same quick bread mix to make Pumpkin Cheesecake Bites so you can check out that post here. Since the Pillsbury mix is so easy to work with, I wanted to try a different pumpkin recipe and let me tell you that these Pumpkin Streusel Muffins do not disappoint! They have the perfect amount of pumpkin flavor and sweetness to satisfy any pumpkin craving.
This Easy Orange Chicken Bowl is a great weeknight dinner recipe you can put together in less than 30 minutes. My family has been loving this meal so much that I’ve added it to the dinner rotation.
Orange chicken is one of my family’s favorite meals whenever we eat out at Asian restaurants, so I decided to put together a semi-healthier version at home. To make it quick and easy enough to put together after work, I use Tyson Fully Cooked Honey Battered Chicken Breast Tenders and toss them in the air frier. [Read more…]
You know it’s officially summertime when school is out and you’ve got little growing kids at home eating everything in sight! I love the summer, especially because I get to experiment with new foods and fun snacks. These Chocolate Apple Pops were a total hit and so refreshingly delicious. They’re fun to make with or without your kids and even more fun to eat!
These Chocolate Apple Pops are so easy and fun to make. All you need is melted chocolate and apples! A few fun toppings add some flare but aren’t really needed. Below, I listed a few that I tried and some that I hope to try the next time I make these.
It’s TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK! Today we’re sharing this super cute and fun DIY Crayon Wreath that you and your child can make together to give to your favorite teacher.
If you have kids in school or you’ve ever homeschooled your kids, helped with homework, reading, and projects, then you’ve almost always thanked God (under your breathe, of course) that they’d be going back to school the next day. Or when you’re struggling to teach your kid something you don’t even understand yourself, you’ve almost always thrown your hands up and said (to yourself, of course) “your teacher can show you how to do this!” [Read more…]
