Cooking healthy and delicious meals for my family is very important to me. I’m also a foodie and its makes me so happy that I’m raising my son to be a foodie. He’s 8 and loves to taste test different kinds of vinegars, requests Marcona almonds (not just almonds) and can use a piping bag. […]
Countdown to Halloween
I love creating traditions for my son that make holidays extra special. A few years ago I crafted a Halloween countdown for him. I bought 31 small craft boxes from Michaels, painted them black, and then added paper, ribbons and stickers to make them fun. Each box has a number 1-31 for each day of […]
Have you heard? There’s a New Emergency Center in North Phoenix
Recently I noticed a the new John C. Lincoln Sonoran Health and Emergency Center just off the I-17 freeway in North Phoenix and was curious since it’s close to where I live. I was excited when the kind folks at John C. Lincoln invited a group of local bloggers to tour their new health center. […]
Sea World San Diego’s Water Park: Aquatica
San Diego, CA is one of our favorite destinations for a short road trip from Phoenix. This past Labor Day weekend we decided to fit in one more trip to San Diego while it was still beach weather (and to escape our 100+ degree weather at home). Besides lots of time at the beach we […]
Its Lime Tree Harvesting Season – 14 Cocktails with Lime Juice
One great thing about the weather here in Arizona is that citrus trees grow great in backyards. We have lemon, lime and orange trees. Our lemon tree produces 100s of huge lemons in January. Our lime tree is less of a producer but increasing every year – this year I would estimate around 50 limes […]
What I Wore Wednesday
I’m a huge fan of the idea behind The Pleated Poppy’s What I Wore blog linkup – documenting your daily outfits in an effort to get out of the sweats or yoga pants. Since losing weight and just feeling 1000x better I’ve been making an effort to dress better each day so I’m joining in for […]
Arizona Science Center’s Lost Egypt
Disclaimer: I was provided the opportunity to visit the Arizona Science Center and Lost Egypt exhibit through a campaign with Blended Extended. All opinions are my own. My son loves science (and since I used to be a scientist before I opened a cake business that makes me a very proud mom!) so one of […]
My Love-Hate Relationship With Pinterest
In the past two years I’ve found myself spending more and more time on Pinterest and I don’t think I’m the only one. I found it quite funny when I hosted our baseball team party earlier this year and one of the kids (7 year old boy) asked my if I got my party decorating […]
Staples – one of my frequent shopping trips {small business owner}
As a small business owner I find myself making monthly. or sometimes weekly, trips to an office supply store. While another large office supply chain is located closer to my shop, I most times make the trip just a bit farther for my favorite, Staples. Its one of my happy places to shop – what […]
My Favorite Things – Spring 2014 edition
I LOVE talking about products I love. I’m pretty picky so when I find something I love it makes me very happy. Sanuk Flip Flops – comfortable shoes are very important to me. I’ve also had problems with plantar fasciitis for years and it flares up if I don’t wear supportive shoes. Living in Arizona […]
