Making food fun for the family
I got all your toast needs covered. That is why I went crazy and made you these Animal Toast (4 ways!), using a different spread for each: cream cheese, Nutella, avocado, and peanut butter, now there is a toast for everyone! From: Mother’s Day Toasts, Woodland Animal Toast, even Groundhog Toast, I think it’s become…
For the longest time, making food art was my meditative practice. It was my medium for getting in the zone, expressing my creativity, and focus on my breathing. I mean, putting every chocolate sprinkle in place for the kiwi cacti in these Cupcake Terrariums takes time, precision, and care. You HAVE to focus and go…
These were super fun to make with my kiddo! We talked about all the cool things we’d be able to see up close as we taped up our Toilet Roll Binoculars and prepared for our walk (it has been WEEKS since we’ve been out!). We of course printed out our Nature Walk Bingo sheets, and…
In honor of Earth Day coming up, I wanted to find ways to celebrate Mother Earth with my son, especially since I’ve been “homeschooling” his during this pandemic. And I put homeschool in loose quotes since he is only three and technically not enrolled in school. But let’s be honest, having some lesson plans/activities geared…
Are you trying to find alternatives to dyeing Easter eggs? Your reasons might be varied. It might be because you are vegan, because you don’t like hard boiled eggs, you don’t want to waste food, or because there are no eggs at your local market due to this weird time we are living in. Regardless…
I made an effort this past weekend to stock up on food to get us through a couple of weeks so I wouldn’t have to go out anymore than I needed to (thank you, pandemic). So here we sit, a few days until Sunday and no eggs to hard boil and dye. But that is…
You guys, I think we are on our 87th round of Easter egg hunts in preparation for Sunday already. I made a mistake by taking my Easter bin out early last weekend and the little man (um, he’s THREE now–I know, I’ve been gone awhile!) spotted it and immediately wanted demanded an egg hunt. Cue…
I know, I know, I’m on a roll over here. I disappear for like, a year and then I return with a million ideas. I’m beginning to think this is my new normal and instead of resisting it, I think I am just going to embrace it (*shrugging*). I miss being creative like this but…
Yeah I’m back. Well, back-ish. A lot can happen when you are in quarantine. Not saying I am consistently posting here but at least I am having fun (or at least trying to) while I’ve been in my house for a month straight. I think I stopped playing around over here for the simple reason…
Forget cars, trains, and fire engines, I’ve found the latest craft idea that will keep my 2 year old entertained for, well, minutes but he’s 2! That is a solid “I’m-so-entertained-for-a-2 year-old” goal! Over the last few months, I have purchased some uncooked rice and pasta and put them into separate bins. I will even…
Not only is this non-candy idea great for your kids to pass out in their classroom and/or friends, but these Awesome Sauce Valentines (with a free printable!) actually make great snack stuffers in your kid’s lunchbox all yearlong. Now you don’t need Valentine’s Day to tell your little kiddo how amazing they are!* *But you…
