Baking Made Fun with Foodstirs
I didn’t do a lot of baking at my house when I was growing up. My mom rarely cooked meals and when she did it was something quick and easy. We never spent time in the kitchen baking cookies or a sweet treat to snack on. Now that I am a mother with three Little’s of my own, I really find comfort in creating fun memories with them. One of the traditions we started with Nolan and continues with our growing family is having the kids help in the kitchen. On the weekends, Nolan and Harper normally help Derrek make pancakes with lots of berries, bananas and nuts. They…

What Cooking with Green Chef has Taught me
As many of y’all know, I work from home. I spent most of my time home and we maybe eat out twice (if I am lucky) a week. This means that I am constantly in the kitchen making snacks and meals for everyone. This can get so tiring and also put me in a cooking rut and I feel like I am making the same things over and over and spending long periods of time in the kitchen. Enter Green Chef, the answer to my cooking prayers! Green Chef is the only USDA-certified organic meal kit delivery service available. I’ve found their menu options to be super healthy, diverse and…

Chicken Noodle Immune Soup
“Chicken noodle soup, chicken noodle soup, chicken noodle soup with a soda on da side….” am I the only one who hears this song when I make chicken noodle soup? The weather here is freezing cold and we had the promise of snow on Saturday. Sadly, it rained right before the flurries started falling so it didn’t stick. Our kids were devastated that they couldn’t use their new ski bibs (you MUST check out the huge sale that’s happening over on the Target website, I got the kids theirs for $9 each!) We passed the time by making different crafts, playing with legos and cooking some of our favorite comfort…

Colored Organics
Nolan’s sweatshirt | Harper’s shirt | cardigan | leggings One of the reasons why I love social media is finding amazing companies like Colored Organics. When we started communicating a few months ago about working together, I knew we would be a perfect fit! Colored Organics is a 100% sweatshop-free, organic cotton clothing company that makes the best basic clothing for yourself, little boys and girls! This company was also founded by a MOM (you know this excites me!) that was horrified that the children working in sweatshops that produce mainstream clothing are not much older than her own. She started her company, and it now makes clothing with naturally hypoallergenic fabrics that create non-toxic pieces that…
