Kid Fun
Hummingbird Nectar
This hummingbird nectar is simple to prepare, much healthier for the birds, and budget friendly! I know what you're thinking right now, "this is a cooking blog, why am I reading up on hummingbird nectar"? Am I right?! Well, sorry, I decided to take a night off from food recipes and share this ...
Quick Calzones
Last week, my son came home from school and said he was in the mood to make dinner for the family. I am never one to turn down a night off from cooking, but since he is in 4th grade, I had to look around to see what was "kid friendly" for him to make. I ended up having everything on hand for these ...
Copycat Spaghettio’s
Growing up, I remember my mom buying me spaghettio's every so often and I would get so excited. It was definitely one of my favorites back then. Fast forward to me being a mom now, and my oldest son is obsessed. He is one of those kids that don't like sandwiches for lunch and I have to get creative. ...

Nathan’s Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
One of the things that I really try to make a point of, is getting my kids in the kitchen. I think it is one skill that every kid not only should learn, but most of the time, they have a blast. It is a great way to bond with your kids, be hands on, all while teaching them fun, new things. This ...
Banana Chocolate Chip Ice-Cream Cups
Being in Texas, this summer heat is brutal. I saw next week's forecast and it shows the temperature getting up to 106*. Talk about hot, right? To beat the heat, the kids and I have been hanging out at our neighborhood pool a lot. Although it keeps us cool, nothing tastes better in the heat, than a ...
The Original Rice Krispies Treats
Most people grow up having these around in their house, or at least trying them once. I love how kid friendly they are and how fun it is that the kids can make these just about by themselves (minus the stove part of course). This recipe never fails, and is perfect for any occasion! Plus, it is a ...
