I’m a little bit ashamed that I haven’t been sharing more pumpkin recipes with y’all. You can never have too much pumpkin! Unfortunately, my whole family was down with the flu last week and it seriously took a toll on us all…but while everyone else is feeling better, I feel like I’m lagging behind and …

I’m rounding up my free Thanksgiving printables with this free Thanksgiving printable wall art. The holidays are crazy. I know they are…and I know that sometimes slowing down, for just a few minutes, even, can be a challenge. My hope is that this will be a tiny little reminder that we have lots to be …

When I was a kid, I’d go to my Gramma Polly’s house the week before Halloween and help her stuff treat bags to hand out to all of the trick-or-treaters. In my mind, I did this every year and stuffed tons of bags. In reality, I probably helped her a few times and judging by …

Well, ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for my quarterly food craft! I’m not crafty very often, but when I am…I like to use candy as my medium of choice. I mean, I can’t feel guilty about eating 32,000 candy corns before the second week of September has even started if it’s for a CRAFT, right?! …

Fall food is the best, isn’t it? Rich, flavorful, and spiced just right…I love it. It’s also really, really easy to eat all the fall food (Halloween candy! pumpkin pie! turkey and cranberry sandwiches!). I plan on indulging in my favorite fall foods, as I always do…but this year, I’ve found some healthier options that …
