Sweet Baby.. is turning into a Sweet Toddler.  Walking around, even running.  One thing she likes to do is dress up and even loves to shop for clothes.  Mamas and Papas has been one of our favorite brands for baby gear we adore our baby snug, but did you know they also make clothing?  Sweet baby was sent a 3 piece skirt set to review for the holidays.  The set she received is a part of their autumn/winter collection and I’m pretty sad to see it already sold out!  Fear not, there’s actually quite the selection still available!  Boys, girls, babies, the clothes.. the cuteness!

Before you know it the holiday season is here, and before you know it, it’s all over too!  You’ll ache from eating to much, then want something sweet again too!  Sweet Baby and I have the perfect fix for both of those problems with this cute craft we’re sharing!  I’ve been racking my brain on […]

Any time with family is a party to me!  I love to bake and I love baking with chocolate!  Whether it’s baking cookies, cakes, candies, or cupcakes.. it’s really all fun to me.  Parties to some may mean lots of lots of decorations and even having catering.  To me it’s about the people, the food, the quality, and the time together.   I can easily spend $300 on just FOOD for a party.  I’m crazy.. I know, but come on who doesn’t love fresh fried calamari with homemade tomato sauce? >>>>  Yeah I thought so  Plus the baked goods!!  Only quality butter and flours in this house.  Milk Chocolate M&M’s made our party a little more special.  I may have or may have not spent $50 on M&Ms .. no judgement!  It’s for a good cause and stuff.  

Kia used to be the underdog to me, but after testing out the Sorento and most recently the Soul I’m blown away.  The technology, feature and even the appearance has me hooked.  In about 9 months we’ll be purchasing or most likely leasing a vehicle that will be more user friendly for our family.

Pasta.. It’s a regular thing in our home!   We used to enjoy our pasta loaded with a meat sauce, but I now prefer mixing healthy with satisfying.  Not everything healthy has to taste horrible – in fact some of my favorite recipes are healthy versions!  I’ll never forget when my parents were still here we would go over my grandparent’s house and have a huge pasta dinner every Sunday.  Sauce, Pasta, Meatballs, Stuffed Shells, literally carb overload.
