Spring Cookie Balls: Easter Chicks
My name is Mari and I’m obsessed with Easter chicks. Ahhh, I feel much better. Seriously, I love little Easter chickies. They are absolutely adorable. One year I had an Easter Chicks theme party for our second born whose birthday happen to fall on Easter. So, cake balls are yummy but these cookie balls were amazing and easier to […]

I pretty much follow the recipe for scotcharoos but don’t use butterscotch morsels and use chocolate rice krispies for a “nest look”. Robin’s Egg Nest Treats 1 cup light corn syrup 1 cup sugar 1 cup peanut butter 6 cups Cocoa Rice Krispies Robin Eggs or Jelly Beans Chocolate for melting Place corn syrup and […]
Egg Science Experiments and Floating Egg Trick
One of my boys is really into magic right now. He came home with a fun floating egg science experiment that he’d learned at school. And since I’m a sucker for science experiments and my husband was a science teacher we were quite excited that he was into his science lesson or magic trick (from […]
Easy Vanilla Chai Latte
It’s still cold here. Winter has felt like an eternity even though spring is officially here. Today I was so cold, I was tempted to walk around with a scarf on in my house. We don’t have central heat and air so to warm up I either: exercise, bake or build a fire. I didn’t […]

Honestly, I had not thought about giving the hubby an Easter basket until now but seriously why not give dad (or grandpa) an Easter basket?

Easy Carrot Cake Waffles Recipe
Carrot cake takes me back to my childhood. There was a time when I was a little girl, I couldn’t wait for Sunday because it meant my father would bring home from work a wonderfully amazing carrot cake. It seemed like he did that for months on end around spring but it was probably like a couple […]
Lego Party: Ninjago Theme
I should be embarrassed that I’m just getting this Lego Party posted, it’s from my son’s 8th birthday party. That was two years ago. I think down deep inside I didn’t want to post it because the pictures were not so great and it wasn’t my most camera friendly party for lots of reasons. It […]
I Bet You Didn’t Know Duct Tape Could Fix… Oh You’re Going to Laugh
I debated on what to title this post. Should I go with “You know you’re a missionary when….” or You Know You’re an Expat when… or You know you’re ghetto when… So I went with a more general title and I’ll let you be the judge on which “You know when…” would best fit. Seriously, […]

DIY Baskets From a Cereal Box
Originally I made these baskets for our guest bathroom which is right next to our front door and it gets used a lot by little boys who are still learning to aim in the toilet. On top of that the guest bathroom is a dreadful country blue, help! Needless to say, our guest bathroom needed a little […]
Easy Spring Craft for Kids
Have I told you how much I love contact paper? I do! It’s such a great item to have in your craft bin or I could say “craft room” but then I would be insinuating that I have one and I don’t. I wish I did, and even though I love all things crafts, I […]

I had so much fun putting together our Wacky Family Dinner today. As you may know, today is April Fools Day. I have always been a little prankster, I could sit down for hours with you and share all of my fun prankster stories from college. But once I became mom that side of me […]
Easy Slow Cooker Applesauce Recipe {NO Peeling Required}
Applesauce can be pricey at least in our neck of the woods so as the saying goes “necessity is the mother of invention” I got to making my own. In my world though this would probably fit better “necessity is the mother of homemade connoctions.” Applesauce is super easy to make whether you’re making it over the stovetop […]
