Finding love around the table.
Kids can bake, too! 10-year-old Eden shares her experience baking and decorating these indulgently delightful Devil’s Food Cupcakes from scratch!
Hi! I’m Eden, and I am so excited to share a post with you! I am ten years old, and second oldest of my three siblings. Ever since I started reading Cupcake Diaries (my new favorite book series) by Coco Simon, I feel like I’ve been bitten by the baking bug. Mostly I’ve wanted to bake cupcakes.

Hello, hello! I hope you all had a great Fourth of July weekend! I tell ya, we were exhausted Thursday evening! Celebrating our country is serious business!
I’m not sure what happened last week, but I didn’t do any cooking, except for Tuesday night when I made breakfast for dinner…well, technically, Grace made breakfast for dinner. It’s nice to have a teen who enjoys cooking, let me tell you that!
We finally got the landscaping barked over the weekend and it was so nice because the kids helped while Ruby napped and then Josh and I went out on our date night and enjoyed Happy Hour at Manzana (for you local peeps) and let me just tell you that the Citrus Honey BBQ Chicken Wings are so good, as is the Santa Fe Cornbread. Let me put it this way…I didn’t want to share with Josh!
Chicken wings are one thing we want to experiment with making more of, yum!…
These tangy, tasty buffalo chicken burgers are a serious taste explosion – just make sure you’ve got enough mayo to go around! This post originally appeared on Catz in October of 2014. To be honest, we made it in the fall, which meant that by the time the spring came around, we’d kind of forgotten about…
Busy family? This One Pan Spanish Rice Bake is for you. Other than the produce, it’s a pantry meal, and it also comes together in a single pot! Isn’t it funny how you think when school is finally over for the year, you’re going to have so much more time on your hands? Not true….
Make it with fresh berries or frozen – either way, this blueberry coffee cake is an easy, slightly indulgent way to start any morning! Josh’s job has recently had a shift which is requiring him to travel at least once a week and for how long he’s gone for varies depending on the needs of…
For us, these easy Chicken Enchiladas are classic, one of few recipes we still make from our first year of marriage…you’ll be hooked, too! These delish easy chicken enchiladas originally appeared on Catz in Feb 2014. Well, maybe even earlier than that, but we’ll never know! At any rate, we’ve been making them, in various guises,…
Summer is here, & cobbler goes hand in hand with summer memories! Try this berries & thyme cobbler recipe for a slightly earthier take on the classic! You know how food can be tied to memories? Cobbler is one of those foods for me. In the late July and August summer, my mom and I…
Got drumsticks in the freezer? Rather with dealing with hot oil and the mess it makes, try this easy, healthier oven baked “fried” chicken! Grace, our oldest (you may remember her from the Friday Morning Pancake post), just got her permit and she is so excited! This stage of her life…I guess I thought I…
Happy first week of July and week of celebration of American independence! I’m so excited for this week. While I’m not the biggest fireworks person (I know, there is something wrong with me – but they are always so loud!), I do love the excuse to eat good backyard bbq’d food, enjoy a day off, and now after reading Washington (Affiliate), I appreciate the meaning of this holiday so so much more now that I better understand the history behind it.
We finally had a Sunday at home without plans in the afternoon or evening and it was amazing what we were able to get done in a few hours while Ruby napped. The lawns got mowed, all the weeds in the front and backyard got pulled (now we really need to bark), we cleaned and pressure washed the front porch, and I got five loads of laundry done – not to mention the kids were bathed and we had bruschetta for dinner. While not entirely relaxing, it felt good to just be home and tackle some of the things that were getting a bit out of control around the house. …
