Our lives are usually so scheduled that it’s hard to imagine what we will do if we are quarantined to our homes or even just stuck inside for a period of time. People in the North are used to being stuck inside for a few days during a winter snowstorm or short sickness. Actually, we…
In this post, I include directions for both the regular and Gluten-Free Resurrection rolls that I make with my kids each Easter. Making Resurrection Rolls is a tradition I have done with my kids since they were very small. I love hands-on learning and especially helping my kids understand Bible stories or why we celebrate…
Let me start by saying that even if you aren’t gluten-free, you can use this pizza topping on a regular pizza crust too, so check out the recipe below. Living with food allergies can be tough! I feel like that especially holds true for me in that I didn’t develop these food allergies and sensitivities…
I don’t know about you, but I love Pineapple Dole Whips and Pineapple Dole Whips swirled with vanilla! My Mother in Law, Kelly is also quite a fan of Dole Whips, and she was with us on this trip to Disney World. My husband likes them too, but his favorite is the Orange-Swirl Dole Whip….

Have you ever made Holiday Wreath Cookies? My Grandma used to make us a tray full of Christmas cookies each year, and she always included these Holiday Wreath Cookies! I loved them as they taste very similar to Rice Krispie treats. They are an easy recipe with few ingredients, and they look so festive! Since…
Does your family do an Advent Calendar? When I was growing up, we usually got a chocolate Advent Calendar when we went to get our Christmas Tree. We would go home, decorate our tree, and probably the next day, we would get to start our Advent Calendar. I love the tradition of Advent Calendars, and…
I love to do little crafts and make treats around any holiday. Thanksgiving is one of those holidays that tends to get overlooked, so I like to be sure to celebrate it with my kids and help them understand why we celebrate Thanksgiving. Tonight we’ll be watching Peanuts, “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving”, and we’ll probably…
Yesterday my kids had a Fall party for a class they are taking, so I whipped up some Gluten-free and Egg-free Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes for them when they got home. I freeze half of the batch to have them ready for another time. If I don’t put frosting on them, then we consider them muffins,…
