Summer in Breck!

Good morning lovely people! Hope you’re all doing well this fine Wednesday!   My family and I recently visited Breckenridge CO for a little escape from reality. I brought along my niece and nephew, what was I thinking?! 😛 All five kids had an amazing time. We took them horse-back riding along the slopes, swam…

Coffee

My coffee tastes especially yummy today! Don’t you love when that happens? Seems like its so rare, almost all of the planets have to align for it to happen. The strength of the coffee us just perfect, not too bitter. Sugar-free creamer and heavy cream mixed perfectly and I am left with this beautiful cup…

Winter blues

I am in a mood today. Ever feel like that? Where something just isn’t jiving? I’m not hungry. I’m not really bored. Not excited about anything. Just kind of, there. I barely got through my workout this morning and if it weren’t for my beautiful babies pushing me through, I may not have even begun. …

Beef Bourguignon

It’s a frigid 3 degrees today, with plenty of snow and ice to boot. The kids are running about the house and making as many little messes as possible, naturally. The winter break this year seems a bit longer than others in the past and I can’t put my finger on why. Perhaps it’s that…

Mayhem Eggs

Good morning and happy, gloomy Tuesday! I woke up this morning to a foggy landscape that really allowed my soul relax, which is a big change from the past 6 weeks or so. Why you ask? Well, my family owns a roofing company in Colorado along the front range. So what? Well it hailed in July…

Too hot to cook! No-bake to the rescue!

It is 99 degrees here today. That’s just ugly hot. I’m not even sure I want to cook today! Ha! Who are we kidding, lets just avoid the oven! How about some no-bake cookies? You know what I mean…those wonderful little chocolate, peanut butter and oatmeal cookies you used to get from holiday party trays….

It’s still blueberry time!

So maybe I’m getting carried away with all these blueberry recipes. There are just so many things to try and create. It’s difficult to narrow the vastness of the blueberry into just a few blogs. And I know there are so many other recipes out there to try. Here’s my last blog about these little…

She is the perfect example of “The early bird gets the worm” personality type. haha Because of the children, not having anything to do with…
