Homemade sweet potato chips in coconut oil

December 9, 2014

My friend Ashby came up with a genius, simple way to get her son to eat sweet potatoes. She sliced them and sautéed them in coconut oil! They’re nutritious and have a flavorful balance of salty and sweet. I’m in love with the mild coconut scent and flavor the oil adds to the orange power food. They’re… Read More Homemade sweet potato chips in coconut oil

How to sneak spinach into your food

April 22, 2014
How to sneak spinach into your food.

Fun, creative, and easy kid food ideas

August 14, 2013

I’m sort of in a kid food rut at the moment. We need a little creative twist in our lunches! I say creative, but I mean easy-creative.

I finished the TV frame! I can’t believe it actu I finished the TV frame! I can’t believe it actually worked! I tend to rush through projects because I only have spurts of time with three kids. But for this frame I took my time, thought it through and just took one day at a time. If you watched in my stories, I only own a drill and a small miter box. I’ve never even built a box before! So this is a big project for me. Thanks for joining me on this crazy ride. Full tutorial coming soon!

What’s one thing that you made that you kind of can’t believe that you did it?!
