The giving season!

You may be really good at finding just the right gift or need help with ideas as I often do. 

This year I'm thinking about it a bit differently - more and more that I just don't need more stuff or want to gift stuff just because I need to check the gif...

Two of my three food eating littles love these donuts. My third little one took a bite and said, "yuummmm mommy, these are good but I like daddy's donuts better."

Yep, the ones he likes better are from a gas station like Quality Dairy packed with jelly and sugar. I like...

I’ve been wanting to make homemade yogurt for a long time but held back for several reasons. 

I didn’t think I had enough time.  I didn’t think I had the right equipment.  I didn’t think it would turn out right because it would be too runny.  I didn’t know what incubati...
