bring on the honey…and lots of it
It is no secret that I love to bake…I mean I really love cooking in general but baking is just so fun! Recently I have been looking for some ways to have all my yummy baked goodies but maybe with a little less sugar. Honey is the answer and it is so YUMMY! It is all about the sweet… My favorite way to replace traditional granulated sugar is with honey. It is sweet and way better for you in the long run. Now that sounds like a win win. Local is my favorite My favorite honey is local. I love finding different vendors at the local farmers markets.…

a little added summer fun
Are the kids bored yet? Out of ideas to make this summer something to remember? Too much data being used from iPads and iPhones? It is time to take this summer to next level.

It all starts with making it memorable and ends with fun for all and that sounds like a summer I could excited about. Each day…something new Monday starts the week off by making something that will last. Maybe a music video, or a TV show. Create a storybook with illustrations or family photos. Create a…

Have fun inside or out There are no spend options for inside for super hot days like having a movie day, rearranging the furniture or you could explore a library. For the not so hot days,…

Summer is definately in full swing and I know for me it started without me. Even though it is almost July it is not too late to take full advantage of all it has to offer. OK, maybe not everything but at least a lot of it. My Summer Bucket List I am defiantly a list person so making a bucket list was a must do for me. After I started I have to say I got super excited for the next 2 months. I am definately going to make a conscience effort to enjoy it as much as I can and not the busy over-take. Make the most…

A little summer road trip fun
Growing up every summer there was at least 1 road trip in our family. Sometimes we would travel to Missouri (about 12 hours) or maybe to Florida (too far). Other times we would keep it close and just go a few hours to Austin or San Antonio. No matter how close or how far, I wish we would have had these questions to help us pass the time. SO fun…. Friends or Family…. Whether you are road tripping with your family or with some friends for a fun girls trip (or guys trip) you need to take these questions along. Even better if you are doing these with your…
