Hot Chocolate Spoons
Over the holidays we had lots of family come to stay with us. These holiday visits are among our favorite times of the year, as we get to spend time with family that live far away. My sister-in-law did a cute project with the kids that was a big hit and super easy too! So…
Chocolate Dipped Pretzel Rods
The last few years I have made chocolate dipped pretzel rods to give as gifts. Recently, when my girls saw me making a batch, they wanted to help.

Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies
With summer on the way, we spend more time eating outdoors. We have our fair share of picnics either at local parks or in our backyard. Picnics are great with kids because the food in already on the ground so you don’t have to worry about messes or spilling. In our family, no picnic is complete…
