Poll: what was your favorite Easter gift? Our Easter Bunny mostly left candy, so the year he brought me roller skate adapters for my tennis shoes was an exciting one! As parents, I think we’re always trying to re-create that magic, and today’s post is all about that.

I’ve always wanted to experiment with using natural dyes to dye our hard boiled Easter eggs, but I’ve also been a little intimidated by the idea.
Over the last few years we’ve made the switch to exclusively using Nellie’s Free Range Eggs. Since their eggs come only from Certified Humane Free Range hens that live healthy, happy lives, I feel better about serving them to my family. So, it only seemed fitting that we would go the more natural route for egg dye this year.
But the big question was…can you dye brown eggs? The answer is, yes! It creates even deeper natural tones, and I’m going to show you how! Continue reading
St. Patrick’s Day is an annual national holiday in Ireland, celebrating the patron saint Patrick. It generally involves parades, festivals, and wearing of green. Shamrocks are seen all over as well.
In fact, it’s said that St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated in more countries than any other national festival. With that in mind, we are getting ready to celebrate in our home!

We’re a pretty traditional family at Thanksgiving. We often relish preparing and sharing the same traditional dishes year after year. Food trends come and go—but don’t mess with my mashed potatoes! You could say I went a little bit off the rails this year by experimenting with a fun twist on our deviled eggs recipe that I think everyone can get behind!
All it takes is one sweet, piquant, and smoky secret ingredient to upscale a dish of classic deviled eggs. The prototypical Dijon mustard and creamy mayonnaise still play an important role in this recipe the roasted red peppers and a magnanimous dusting of paprika take this from basic – to amazing.
Serve this for Thanksgiving (like we did) or bring them to a potluck, wherever they go, these roasted red pepper deviled eggs are sure to shine brilliantly.

Do you live in an area where Halloween is either cold and rainy, or cold and snow? No one wants to go tromping around for Halloween candy in the snow! If you purchase Halloween costumes based on how they will look under or over a winter coat and gloves, you might live in the Midwest!
It’s always a great idea to have a backup plan for fun indoor Halloween activities so that the kids don’t get discouraged when the weather is less than favorable.
We love living where the seasons change, but we don’t love trick-or-treating in snow. That’s why I’m always looking for opportunities to enjoy holiday fun indoors, and why I was so excited to learn that Chuck E Cheese has all sorts of affordable Halloween indoor festivities happening through October for their Halloween Boo-tacular™.

Can you feel it in the air? Fall is coming…and far too soon, if you ask me! The start of the school year brings preparation for cooler temps, including our morning meal prep routine.

You might say I have a thing for lemons. Over the years I’ve shared recipes for lemon ice cream (a must-try), lemon poppy seed bread, and my daughter’s first birthday was even a pink lemonade party theme! Inspired by the pink lemonade cupcakes I made for sweet Eve’s birthday, I decided to make a slightly more sophisticated pink lemonade sheet cake to kick off summer.
You’re going to want to try this. It’s the perfect combination of sweet and tangy.

I am so grateful that my family is healthy and spending lots of quality time together. We’ve spent a lot of time baking lately, which inspired this sweet and sour recipe: The best lemon poppy seed bread.
Nothing goes together quite like mint and chocolate chips! As St. Patrick’s Day approaches, I thought it would be fun to whip up an ode to these flavors with Grasshopper Sandwich Cookies.
