Sundried Tomato Baked Ziti

Sundried Tomato Baked Ziti

There are so many reasons to love pasta. It's easy to serve a crowd, easy to make, and everyone loves it! We have had a few favorite pasta recipes over the years, but I really wanted to commit to making the best ever baked ziti. A pasta recipe we love from a cookbook uses sundried tomatoes and balsamic vinegar in the sauce and those two things really take this recipe to the next level. With a hearty meat sauce, creamy ricotta filling, and a whole pound of noodles, this is a recipe to make for so ... continue reading...

Chocolate Peppermint Shortbread

It's the final day of cookie week for 2023! I love shortbread as a Christmas cookie because it's so classic and perfect with an afternoon cup of tea. Shortbread isn't overly sweet, but paired with the chocolate and peppermint it has the perfect texture and subtle sweetness. This chocolate peppermint shortbread can be baked in a square pan and cut into rectangle cookies as shown here, in a round pan and cut like a cake or pie, or refrigerated in long rolls and made as a slice-and-bake ... continue reading...

Chai Snickerdoodles

Chewy Chai Snickerdoodles - a delicious Christmas cookie!

Somehow it's already our second to last day of cookie week! Snickerdoodles are a holiday classic, but I have always found them to be a little bit boring. However, I have always loved chai tea and chai-spiced things. It seemed like a natural step to me to add some chai spices to snickerdoodles to bring you these chai snickerdoodles! Not everyone loves a super rich or chocolatey cookie, and these are a great addition to your cookie box. Snickerdoodles are a recipe that everyone will love during ... continue reading...

Chocolate Peanut Butter Truffles

It's cookie week day four! If you missed the first three recipes, I've already posted chocolate caramel snowballs, Christmas cookie bars with M&M candies, and gingerbread oatmeal cream pies. Last year, I made sure to have one no-bake recipe as part of the cookie box, and that recipe for chocolate peppermint truffles is still one of my absolute favorites. I love the chocolate and mint flavor combination, and another flavor combination that I love is chocolate and peanut butter. These ... continue reading...

Gingerbread Oatmeal Cream Pies

Happy cookie week day three! If you missed the first two recipes, you can find the chocolate caramel snowballs and Christmas cookie bars linked here and here. The first two recipes I shared are super easy to whip up since they require no chill time. While these gingerbread oatmeal cream pies are also easy to make, the dough does require an hour of chill time before baking and the cookies need to cool completely before you add the filling. None of the steps to make these cookies are difficult, ... continue reading...

Last week I spent a few days visiting my best frie Last week I spent a few days visiting my best friend in sunny Arizona seeing her new home and while I miss her every day it brought me so much joy to see how happy she is and how her whole family is thriving! @teeter_totter_mom and I had the best time chatting nonstop for three days as we hiked and ran and of course ate McDonalds. We laughed and explored and soaked up every minute together and it was time that was so good for my soul. “There’s a version of you that only exists when you’re with your best friend. The way you can laugh without holding back, and be yourself without explaining. The comfort of being fully yourself, unfiltered, unedited, unafraid.” 💛 I can’t wait for my next visit ☀️🌵

Happy 11th birthday Lleyton Edward!! Gosh, how has Happy 11th birthday Lleyton Edward!! Gosh, how has it been 11 years? You are growing into such a kind, thoughtful, intelligent young man. You love soccer, golf, and basketball. You love to read and build Legos. You’re a great student and super creative and can frequently be found drawing at the kitchen table. Lately you’re very into cars and can discuss all their makes and models. You started guitar lessons this past summer and I love hearing you practice. I love seeing your interests as you get older and watch you lean into the things that make you YOU. You’re an excellent big brother and are always looking out for your siblings and will happily stop what you’re doing to play cars with Killian, built an elaborate train track setup, or read him his bedtime story. 

There is just something about your oldest. We’ve been on this journey together for 11 years since you made us parents in the middle of the night. We’ve grown and learned together since day one and seeing the kind, smart, empathetic, independent, wonderful young man you are now is one of my greatest joys. Happy birthday bug. 💙

Song playing in the background is Lleyton’s favorite!
