It’s apple season here in Michigan, and I couldn’t be happier. Move over everything pumpkin spice, this has been the year for all things apple! After a rough apple crop last year, I’m so happy to see apples a-plenty growing in abundance here and helping all of our wonderful orchards and cider mills stay in […]

My Favorite Christmas Treat: Linzer Thumbprint Cookies
We all have our favorite holiday treats, right? Mine, by far, are these linzer thumbprint cookies!

Turkey Sausage Gnocchi Soup #Recipe
Today I am highlighting a soup I love for fall that was shared by a friend a few years ago. If you’re like me {a.k.a. a bottomless pit when it comes to food}, you may stay away from soup as a meal. I assure you, this one has enough heavier ingredients to stick to your […]

I should just change this recipe to be called “OMG Cake with Zucchini” because LAWD. It’s sooooo good. My mom made this cake awhile back and let me take a tiny taste of it {because she was hoarding it all for herself to freeze}. I instantly fell in love. So when my mother-in-law gave us […]

Buffalo Chicken Pasta Salad Recipe
When I was pregnant with Karina, I couldn’t get enough spicy food. Any time we ate out and there was something that had spice, I was all over it.

Recipe: Cheeseburger Salad
Ya’ll? Healthy eating is HARD. Especially when you don’t want to keep your family from enjoying foods they love.

Recipe: Simple Chicken and Veggie Stir-Fry
I’m not big on resolutions, but I do like to make goals throughout the year. One of my current ones is to eat more veggies. Don’t get me wrong, I actually love veggies. It’s the act of slicing and dicing and eating them before they go bad that I hate. Enter this simple veggie stir-fry. […]
