Beyond the Leftovers – Turkey Stock & Turkey Pot Pie

Thanksgiving is over.  It always seems surprising to me because of such build up to Thanksgiving and for all the work that goes into the one big meal.  It is definitely one of my favorite meals of the year, how can it not be with all those delicious dishes! My favorite part of the big meal though?  The leftovers. I’m sure that you all have been eating leftovers for … [Read more...] about Beyond the Leftovers – Turkey Stock & Turkey Pot Pie

Amazing and Easy Sweet and Sour Chicken Recipe

I am a stay at home mom and we homeschool, because of that, I think it should be incredibly easy to get a healthy, homemade, amazing meal on the table each night.  For some reason, it is not easy.  While I do tend to make most of my meals from scratch, I realized that having to start dinner at 3pm in order to eat by 6pm was not working. There are so many amazing and easy crock pot … [Read more...] about Amazing and Easy Sweet and Sour Chicken Recipe

A Garden Tour – Week Twelve

I think that this may be my last weekly garden tour of the season!  Of course I still plan to share my garden with you all, but we have come to the point when there really is only garden cleanup, tomatoes, and potatoes left.  Not that tomatoes and potatoes aren’t extremely important, they absolutely are, but obviously there are only so many pictures of tomatoes and potatoes that one may … [Read more...] about A Garden Tour – Week Twelve

A Garden Tour – Week Three

I’m always amazed at the new growth after a week.  And last week I did my garden tour a little later than I had originally planned, so it hasn’t been a full week, but the changes are noticeable. The first change that I noticed this weekend was the arrival of my day lilies.  These flowers were planted here when we bought the house (all the flowers were, thankfully!).  I love … [Read more...] about A Garden Tour – Week Three

An Easter Weekend Recap

I hope you all had an amazing Easter Weekend!  We certainly did.  Easter is one of my favorite holidays.  We are Christian and Easter is probably the most important holiday to us in the year.  Easter is a time of family and fun in our home. The Easter Bunny definitely visited our house this year!  Emma and Jack were up extremely early on Easter morning, ready to … [Read more...] about An Easter Weekend Recap

When you want cheese, but you gave it up for Lent

I really love cheese.  There I said it.  I know it isn’t the healthiest of foods, and I know that it gives me headaches, but for some reason I have a hard time giving it up. I decided that I would do just that for Lent this year. I have wanted to participate in Lent for a few years now, it isn’t something that we have ever really talked about in my home church, but it is … [Read more...] about When you want cheese, but you gave it up for Lent

Part of my January #tendinglist was to clean out m Part of my January #tendinglist was to clean out my office.  It took me a few days, but I *mostly* finished it and feel a lot better about how things are.

I actually picked the four hardest spaces in my house to declutter in January.  Seeing as how this is being posted today we can all acknowledge that I was way too ambitious 🤪

I made a lot of progress, and know that after I clean out our homeschool space things will be settled in my office as well.
