4 Easy Spring Treats to do With your Kids!
I mentioned yesterday that in our town, whenever our high school teams make it to state or championships we likely get school called off (if the sporting event is in the day, or a ways away.) That happened today and tomorrow, as our boys basketball team is in Rapid City! Go Quarriers!! But that means, […]
Peeps Rice Krispie Treats
Today was our Spring Treat Day. About 2-3 times a day I get a wild hair and I bake, a lot. Today, we did just that. We made chocolate covered pretzels, Peeps Rice Krispy Treats, chocolate peeps, Pink Tie Dye Cake, etc. One of the nice things about our town is that we have a […]
Made From Scratch Fettucini Alfredo
I am a pasta person. If there was a group for it, which there probably is, I would be leading it. I love any kind of pasta. More so, those with white sauces! My favorite of course is Alfredo, and I love finding new recipes and trying them out! Today was not one of those […]
Irish Beef Stew
It is that time again for Irish Beef Stew! I love this recipe. A lot of people make it with Peas and Carrots, but a good heart stew isn’t a good hearty stew without some celery in it!! I usually remember this recipe about this time of year, and make it every night for two […]

DIY Lavender & Rosemary Candles
I always wanted to create my own candles; I don’t know why but they always seemed intriguing. Coming up with unique scents, saving money, the therapy side of it. It always just sounded like a lot of fun. I will admit though, it was QUITE a bit of work. One must have a lot of […]
Different Version, Treat Bags!
Again with the Easter, I know! Last time we did the Reeses with these adorable treat bags, but this time we used the Easter M&M’s. I know, I know. They kinda look like easter pooped on a carrot, but aren’t they super sweet! I love them! Again, for less than $12 I made 24 of […]
