I don't know about you, but I grew up with my mom always having homemade cookies in the house.

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 ...
Blueberry Breakfast Cake
Last summer, since we were living in Seattle, the family and I went to the local picking farms and picked huge bags of strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries. It was amazing having fresh fruit on hand, and ton in the freezer! Since we moved to Texas, finding picking farms has been next to ...

Baked Ham and Cheese Sandwiches

After I few weeks, I realized I needed to use that up, so I pulled it out and made these sandwiches for dinner! Since it was the weekend, I ...
Homemade Fruit Snacks
I don't know about your house, but in mine, a box of fruit snacks is gone before I even know where I put it. My three kids LOVE fruit snacks, but since its hard to keep them stocked in my house, I rarely buy them. I decided to try making them and sure enough, it was a hit!!! My kids went crazy for ...
