Baskets of Love.
This basket came filled with goodies at Mike's viewing. A loving lady in our life made sure to leave us the goodies. She filled it up with thoughtful things that she knew we loved because she's awesome like that. It was a source of comfort in a time of sadness. Well the basket has found a home at our house...and when Pap passed away, I dusted it off and decided to sprinkle the same love she shared with us...to everyone in our family. Filled with chips...it sat in the family waiting room and provided some comfort in a time that was very tough for our family. The morning of Pap's service I texted this picture to Steff and said...the tradition continues. It's a love basket for sure...and I intend to keep it going for whatever events in life call for a little love.
Breakfast to go.
After my triumphant run with breakfast sandwiches...and countless pins on Pinterest for a breakfast cup that was portable...I used up some ingredients we had around the house...and created my own version. These 12 cups successfully finished up a few slices of ham, an onion, the last two potatoes in a 10 pound bag, the last remains of a bag of shredded cheddar cheese...and 6 eggs set to expire. Besides eating healthier...one of my hopes this year is to stop throwing away food we don't eat. This was a wonderful start!!
Owen and I attempted to make some fun heart shaped cakes like a pin I pinned on Pinterest. Here was the pinned idea. Well I'm here to report that Cakester oreos don't seem to be sold anymore...and after attempting to find a Suzy Q type product...we called boo on this fun little holiday project. I think next year if I made some whoopie pies from scratch, we could get a much better result! It was a delicious mess though!!
After watching an episode of Pioneer Woman on Food Network...I was inspired to try these SIMPLE quesidillas. Amazing and fast. 16 minutes is no lie! And super yummy. Here's a recipe if you're at all interested.
No shirt, oreos in his hair and on his face, lightning mcqueen car in one hand...getting into trouble witt the vaporizer for 1 millionth time. This is how I always want to remember these toddler days with the boys!
My morning motivation...I haven't started doing this as much as I'd like...but so far...what time I've carved out has been absolutley worth it!!
Our house temp reading 59 degrees on day 3 of no furnace. Luckily, $700 and 3 days later, we had the part installed and the house was back to normal! Shew! Wanna appreciate what your furance does?? Live without it for a few days.
Ahh. February...it was an adventure. But I will say I'm glad to see you go and usher in a warmer month. March brings a certain someones FOURTH birthday...and hopefully some spring temps...and maybe...just maybe some house news.
Welcome March :)
