So I've been seeing this Baked Feta & Cherry Tomato Pasta recipe EVERYWHERE on IG (probably like you all have too!). (And yes, I know this viral sensation started on TikTok but my computer software developer husband wouldn't let me join! LOL!) I had zero interest in making it because I don't like feta cheese. But I got these GORGEOUS cherry tomatoes from Frecker Farms. My 4 year old … [Read more...]
Heart Cookies (Vegan & Gluten Free)
Nothing says Valentine's Day like a heart shaped cookie! :) This recipe is gluten free, vegan, has good protein and fiber from almonds, fats from coconut oil and is naturally sweetened! The ingredients are all ones I feel good about enjoying with my children! This is a fun one to do with the kiddos too, since they can help do it all… measure, stir, roll, cut out the heart shapes, frost … [Read more...]
Heart Messages
Valentine's Day tends to focus on flowers and candy. I think there are other fun and truly heartfelt ways to show the people in your life how you really feel about them. Here is a fun one you can use for the kids in your life (your own, grandkids, etc!). Starting February 1st we (and by we, I mean, "I!") write a conversation heart and stick it on the girls' door while they are sleeping. When … [Read more...]
Self LOVE Gift LIST
It's been a tough year for most of us. Finding the fun and joys in life, no matter how small, make a big difference. We have been enjoying celebrating all the holidays and birthdays in extra fun and creative ways this year. Every Valentine's Day I always like to focus on the color theme: reds and pinks! It makes everything a bit more festive. It can be as simple as pink or red cloth napkins, … [Read more...]
Apple Cinnamon Crêpes (Vegan & Gluten Free)
My hubby LOVES crêpes but we haven't had them in ages. (It's not so easy to find vegan ones.) I never made them before, but it was his birthday and I wanted to surprise him. (Hard to do that lately, being together 24/7 with 3 small kids!)! It was my first time making crêpes, both because I was intimidated by attempting a vegan version of these delicate pancakes, and because I am not the … [Read more...]
Baby #3 Birth Story
I've been reminiscing a lot about my son's birth lately, since he just turned 1. After one year, I finally finished writing his birth story! I've shared my other 2 birth stories before (see my 2nd's story here), but I've never shared how or why I felt so called to have a home birth. In this post I share about all of that… and, of course, his living room birth. Photos included this time! As a … [Read more...]
Zucchini Potato Latkes (Vegan & Gluten Free)
I love my Baked Sweet Potato Latkes, and make them every year. My 4 year old was looking forward to them all month, and reminded me to make them for Hanukkah several times. But one thing I love about the holidays is trying NEW recipes, as well as revisiting tried-and-true classics. So this year, I was excited to try Baked Zucchini & Potato latkes! Thanks to Covid and our stay-at-home … [Read more...]
White Chocolate Dipped Pretzel Rods (Vegan & Gluten Free)
I don't know about you but we could use some extra holiday cheer around here. This is the first Hanukkah my 4 year old will spend without her grandparents. We haven't seen them now in almost a year due to Covid, although I'm grateful they at least got to meet my son who turns 1 on Saturday! It's been a hard pandemic without them. Especially for my 7 year old, who asks for … [Read more...]
