Banana Zucchini Muffins with Apple + Blackberries

Based on the ingredients of these muffins, they’re basically power muffins…good for anytime of the day; breakfast, mid-day snack, a side with lunch, or even a healthy dessert. Totally guilt free and toddler-approved, which means whole family approved; what could be better?! I made these on Sunday to prep my little guys’ breakfast & snacks for …

Rainbow Salad Packed with Nutrients

I have SO many favorite salad combos, and the best part, is they’re just one big schmorgishboard. Totally reminds me of this quote…somehow I’m always the one with the biggest, most randomly paired plate of mismatched goodies. In a salad, almost anything goes. It’s like the one dish where it’s acceptable to just keep throwing …

THANK YOU!

I just got an email I officially published my 75th blog post, which is incredible and mind-blowing to me, as I just started this blog in October of 2014. Today I’m also celebrating my adorable new logo as shown above by JMK Creates and couldn’t be more in love with how it reflects me as …

The Life of a “Single” TIU Mama

So I say “single” because all of you know I’m married, but my better half is a traveling salesman, so it’s just Tanner & I most of the time. It’s one of those odd dynamics that thankfully works for us, because Kyle likes to constantly be on the go surrounded by chaos, people always around, …

Travel Friendly WOD

This weekend I’m home in my hometown visiting my family. We haven’t all been together since last Thanksgiving, so nearly a year! Seems unbelievable how fast time flies now that we’ve all flown the coop. And it’s just my sister, mom, and dad – our little party of 4. Crazy the four of us go …
