I love this time of year! The air is starting to turn a bit cooler, the leaves are showing their autumn glory, and the harvest season is upon us. One thing that I love about this time of year is apples fresh from our apple trees or the local apple orchard. I’ve never made homemade apple crisp before tonight. I… Read More
Every day, Gluten Free (GF) kids head off to school each day without the ability to buy lunch in the cafeteria, or given very limited choices. Even if you are planning to work with your school district’s nutrition services to determine possible GF options for your child, that will take time and there will probably be quite a few lunches… Read More
Summertime can be a whirlwind, so who has time to be cleaning up frequent messes? From the melting ice cream to the dirty dog paws, summer brings more messes than than I like to deal with. Plus, if you don’t get to those messes fast, they get super sticky and the ants will inevitably call all their friends and have… Read More
Summer is the perfect time to get outside and enjoy the fresh air. We always tell our kids “go play outside,” so they go ride their bikes or play baseball at the park, but that is not all that the outdoors have to offer! This summer, make it a priority to spend at least one day outside with the kids doing… Read More
Most children (and adults) think of summer as a time to take a break from learning, and I fall into that category as well. I don’t want to think about schoolwork, or helping my kids with their homework, so we think we can just turn our brains off. That doesn’t quite work though. Our brains require stimulation, so we try… Read More
If you stay home with your kids in the summer, or if they have a nanny / babysitter watching them, movies and performances are a great option to get out of the house. I found a few events in the Twin Cities, Minnesota that offer free movies and performances during the summer. In efforts to provide a safe, family friendly,… Read More
You know the look- sad eyes, paws on your lap, eyes intent on your every forkful. It’s so hard to resist a begging dog! As we’ve been getting ready to bring home our new puppy, I’ve been preparing my sons for this new responsibility, which includes knowing which foods dogs should not eat. In general, dogs’ food and how much… Read More

For quite a long time, I have dutifully carried a large container of cloth bags into the grocery store. I may use 5 bags, or I may use 10. But I have at least 20 ready to go – I like to be prepared. Until last summer, I had never considered that maybe my efforts to be more eco-friendly at the… Read More
Sadly, it’s time to check out of our cabins for the year! After a relaxing weekend at the cabin, the last thing I want to do is clean up before we head home. Thankfully, Norwex makes cabin clean up a much easier, less burdensome task. I only take a couple items back and forth, but you can decide what works for… Read More
It’s my favorite time of year. There’s a crispness to the air and my world is a landscape of vivid color. The boys are back in school and I am busy balancing their schedules with my own. Every year we try to fit in as many fun, family activities as possible before the snow flies! I thought I might share… Read More
Are you a “green” camper? I don’t mean inexperienced (or sick!), but environmentally friendly! Being out in the elements is easier than ever, but your trip can quickly become a very wasteful event if environmental-friendliness is not one of your priorities. With the rise of single-packaged food and toiletries, traveling outdoors is much more convenient, but your weekend might take… Read More
