An Easy Holiday Project
It’s almost unfair to call this a project. Almost. It’s so easy. But let’s not over complicate this. Does the level of mess created equate to level of kid crafting immersion? No, no it does not. So I give you the easiest of holiday-ish kid crafts. Please follow along with Sea Salt Simple
Feels Like Friday: Creamy Mexican Turkey Soup & An Easy Gift Pick
I’ll admit it–does it feel like Friday? I’m not sure. It might feel a bit more like holiday hangover, Black Friday angst, too much travel, and post-feast let down all simmered together. No, not let down, really, just…calm down. So much prep, so much lead-up, so much togetherness. So much of it good. But a…
Kid Lunches in Squares
Admittedly, I’ve got a great young eater. Sure, there are strikes, changes of mind (she will, every day, ask for an ‘eggy sandwich’ and then refuse to eat it.

Like Motherhood Around the World on Cup of Jo. So, so good. This isn’t Motherhood Around the World, but it’s what I’ve got right now—Feels Like Friday. Because Friday is a good…
An Easy Fall Project
It might have been the increasing number of leaf decoupages and sticker collages coming home in her backpack. It could have been C asking to paint a pumpkin for the 27th time this week. Either way, I realized this week I should probably dig deep and offer this kid some crafting action. She’s ready. Please…
A Meal Plan is a Life Plan
Meal planning=life. The dinner dilemma is a challenge as old as time. Millions of blog posts, thousands of cookbooks, a common discussion among friends. What to have for dinner, and, more critically, how to logistically get that dinner on the table is the heart of the question. And I have the answer. Make a plan….
