Random happy feelings
Oh, girls…don’t we always let our feelings guide us? This can be good and bad, I suppose. I just wanna share a couple of things that make me happy today. The perfect egg. I’ve always had trouble making this at home–until now. I found this little baby pan. It’s made to cook just 1 egg. [...]

Mom’s Day Cake
I wanted to make this cake for Mother’s Day dinner. I don’t get to bake very often and it’s something that me and my precious daughter love to do together. What better way to spend this special day!

Do You Do Hard Things? part 1
I’m reading a book called Do Hard Things by Alex and Brett Harris. It was written by teens for teens. But, it’s challenging me. and I’m not a teen. Do I do hard things? Or do I coast? When I think of someone who does hard things, I think of my cousin who is raising [...]
