I made these bars for breakfast on my son’s birthday a couple of weeks ago – stuck a pink, glittery number 5 candle (leftover from a cousin’s b’day, I think) in it, and e’rythang. It was a Maj hit. I doubled the recipe, and just used a large, casserole/baking dish instead of square. I forgot

A Swing in My Step
Whew, is it the weekend, yet?! Mama tired. So much good going on, though – I’m staying the course (armed with lots of coffeeee)!! So, I pretty much lived in this sweet little swing dress from Anthro, while we were in Costa Rica. It took me to the pool, beach, walks through the little village,
Pink Perk-Me-Up
Well, this is a very perky, pink, pick-me-up post (say that 10 times fast) on this very snowy day! I love, love love this suit by Kate Spade. So cute, so flattering, so funn, and will be easy to wear, splashing around with the kiddos, this summer. Delish, little pink macaroon of a swimsuit. And
Coconut Chia Seed Granola
Loved this recipe so much!! I doubled the recipe, and got a lotttt of breakfast mileage out of it. My kids loved this with yogurt and fresh berries (I used raspberries and blueberries), and topped with sliced banana.

6-Ingredient Mexican-Style Quinoa Salad
My fam loved this one, and I did, too – especially because it was super fast to whip up! Fresh, delish, and healthy. If you have kiddos, be sure to select a mild salsa! I accidentally added a medium, but the avocado balanced it out well, so I didn’t hear any complaints (much to my

Healthy, tasty, filling, and FAST is what I’m all about most days, and this recipe fits the bill for both a lunch and dinner in our home. It’s packed with protein and essential nutrients for growing kiddos, so this mama is happy. I paired this with paleo zucchini fritters, which I did nottt care for
HEALTHY TOMATO AVOCADO AND EGG BREAKFAST TOAST
Some Backstory for my first ever Food post: So, I’ve never, ever wanted to cook. Like, ever. I was taught how, but I absolutely hated it. Even just the thought of planning meals, and cooking always made me feel trapped and claustrophobic – like I could no longer be myself? Hard to explain, but it was
VW Love
Site’s back up and running! Tried posting yesterday morning, but it was a no-go. Anyhoo, we just back from a week of bliss in Costa Rica (and by “we,” I mean just my husband and I – hence, the bliss;). It was A-mazing. Full of jungle-dreams-come-true with monkeys trotting into our bathroom, and one smashing my
