The best side bonus of dyeing Easter eggs is, without a doubt, the deviled eggs that you get to make to use up all those leftover hardboiled eggs after Easter! And since we got an early start dyeing eggs this year, we’ve already made a couple batches. These chipotle deviled eggs are our favorites so […]
the most beautiful DIY easter eggs
Last year, on the night before Easter, the kids dyed all of our five dozen easter eggs in approximately seven minutes. This made a gigantic mess (so much splashing dye!), and also made my heart so sad (not kidding- even as a small child, I took FOREVER to make my easter eggs look “just right,” […]
celebration pancakes (“crazy cakes”)
Once upon a time, when we lived in Saipan and popped over to Seoul a couple times a year for long weekend in the city, Burke and Pi (ok, and also their mama) were super into Crazy Shakes. There was an O Shakes in Seoul near several of our go-to restaurants and we loved trying […]
mother’s day goodies
First, how is it May!?! Second, how is Mother’s Day almost here? We currently don’t live close to either my mama nor Adam’s, but we do have several women that are dear to us that we want to drop off Mother’s Day goodies for this next week. When I was putting together little packages for Teacher […]
strawberries with chocolate mousse (sugar free!)
Since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and since me and my littlest Valentine have been doing all sorts of baking and treat making lately, I thought I’d share a couple of fun Valentine’s treat ideas on the blog this week (though, pretty much you could make these anytime for year round deliciousness). Today’s […]
pink mimosa bar
So our new house was christened with it’s first baby shower a couple weekends ago (for the sweetest family at church that just got a new foster baby!). Piper helped me with the planning and it was heavy on the pink (plus swans and flowers for good measure). I’m so slow at editing party pictures, […]
DIY valentine’s chocolate box makeover
I think every year I declare my love for Valentine’s Day. I know lots of people hate it- just not me. 😉 Any reminder I can get to gush on my loves is good by me (plus, I’m reworking a couple of our old Valentine’s traditions and super excited about it). For starters, I grabbed […]
loaded oatmeal cookies (with Easter candy!)
We have a little dilemma at the end of each holiday called “What Should We Do with All of Leftover Candy?” Don’t tell my kids, but most times, a good chunk of it gets thrown away. However, after Halloween, I started experimenting with putting the chopped up leftover candy in oatmeal cookies and we all […]
20 fabulous DIY bunny projects
I cannot believe that tomorrow we will turn our calendars to March! In honor of Easter and bunny rabbits and all of the goodness of spring, I rounded up a few of my favorite bunny rabbit DIYs. Y’all. I need these. Wouldn’t each of them make such a sweet addition to an Easter basket this […]
free printable mother’s day cards
Either one of us could easily write a whole year of posts in honor of our mama (maybe we’ll put together a tribute post before Mother’s Day- she really is absolutely the best). Until then, we’re focusing the next couple of weeks on fabulous DIY gift ideas that would work well as Mother’s Day gifts. […]
