6 1/2 hours is too long to be outside when it’s 95 degrees, hot and humid, with no breeze. But when you’re outside because your son’s den needs a chaperone at cub scout day camp, it’s totally worth it. At least that’s what I’m telling myself. Despite the excessive heat, we had a great…

Browned Butter Glazed Strawberry Donuts #TruMoo
This post brought to you by TruMoo. All opinions are 100% mine. We go through a lot of milk in our house. Seven people, many gallons, lots of cups in the dishwasher. Last week, I bought two cartons of TruMoo (one carton of strawberry milk and one of chocolate milk) and they didn’t last…

Goat Cheese and Beet Spring Salad

Reese’s 5th Grade Graduation #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
What a day! Today started early like most school days do…but today was no ordinary school day.

I left for an end-of-year trip with my 2nd daughter, Necco, and her high school quartet directly…

Or mid morning…or evening. You get the picture). I love cooking with cheese (ooey, creamy, melty goodness!). And so when I was challenged…
