Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
This Mother’s Day mom requested brunch with pancakes. So of course, we did! But not just any pancakes — pancakes with lots of toppings! We had strawberries, blueberries, maple syrup, sugar-free syrup, blueberry syrup, and last but not least….. Cinnamon Spread. This cinnamon spread is similar to what IHOP puts on their Cinnastack pancakes in …
Hello! It is almost Mother’s Day, so I thought I would post this new recipe I have made several times since Easter. This was actually our Easter breakfast! But I always make sure the recipe will work and tweak it to make it better. Books I’ve Read Recently: Store Convenience Woman – A novella (it’s …
Cinnamon Rolls are just an amazing treat. Soft, pillowy dough with sweet brown sugar and icing. These are actually easier when made the night before because then you just pull them out of the fridge and bake them without getting up at 3 am. Current book I’m reading: I’ve finished The Blackbird Girls by Anne …
These were the fluffiest cinnamon rolls that we ever had! The flavors and texture were so light and airy, you would think it was diet food. (Ha Ha – I wish!) I love the layers and layers of cinnamon. The 14″x20″ rectangle of dough really lends to the thin layers of dough between more layers …

Happy Summer Everyone! I have been busy painting the house from top to bottom and hope to have photos very soon!! My children and I were at Costco and tried a sample of Kozy Shack rice pudding. We all LOVED it! And since rice pudding is one of those staples, I had to try and …
Firstly, I wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. No, I am not blogging on Christmas morning 🙂 These blog posts are usually written and then scheduled for the morning. Some of us are busy. Some of us may finally have the time to sit and read a blog post instead of …
Book: No books! Just running lights and baking cookies this week. 🙂 The kids and I are reading the Harry Potter series, so I won’t bore you with those reviews. Photography: I have started to update my photography business cards and websites. The youngest is going to school in August, so I thought I …
Update: Next year’s MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) theme is “A Fierce Flourishing”. After two years of research and one graduate Positive Psychology class, I did a presentation back in March on “Thriving” and thought this would be the perfect time to post that in my blog. I have included the PowerPoint Presentation as well …
