{No Sugar Added} Crockpot Applesauce

If you remember, I had a rough time picking apples this year. We ended up with a whole lotta’ nothing 🙁 But I sure won’t let that stop me! I still had to make some applesauce, even if it meant using apples we didn’t pick ourselves. I was able to snag some from a local farmer’s…

Gourmet Caramel Apples

Want to hear a sad story? I LOVE apple picking. It’s one of my favorite traditions my little family has started, so I was so excited to go this year.  Being in a new (and tiny) town, I had to find a new orchard to go to. As it turns out, the closest pick-your-own orchard…

Baked Apple Chips

This pregnancy has been full of cravings – many that I can’t satisfy, due to living in a wee little town. The other day, I decided I needed Krispy Kreme donuts, which isn’t the first time the donut craving has hit. My sweet Jonny responded by telling me to pack my bags, because he’s taking me…

Caramel Apple Cider

Fall is almost upon us, y’all! It’s my favorite time of the year, and I can’t wait for the weather to cool down a bit. Or a lot. Preferably a lot. I’m the weirdo who drinks hot chocolate and apple cider all summer long, even if it means I have to crank up the A/C…

50+ Healthy School Lunch Ideas

Remember how I said that I’m a creature of habit? Well, it turns out I passed that on to my little monkeys. Every day when I ask Sophie what she wants for lunch, it’s the same response: “peanut butter sandwich!” She doesn’t even need jelly on it, which I think is pretty boring. Needless to say, we…
