Banana Bread
I’m not sure what deal is with all the baking, but I was at it again Saturday. We had some fairly riped bananas and I really hated to throw them out, so I dug out my favorite banana bread recipe and whipped these up in no time.
And just in case you wanted to try out [...]

Can Kristen bake bread from scratch?
I chose Elizabeth’s recipe to start out with. Her instructions seemed very clear and basic. Just what a beginner needs.
I decided that since I was going to make a mess of my kitchen, I might as well make a double batch. I wanted to mix the dough “old school” [...]

Rainbow-y Goodness

Our house smells like paint
And I kind of like it. Don’t worry, the house is well ventilated. We’re lucky this week is our paint week because our temps have been in the low 80s with wind, so we’re able to open all the windows in the house and turn the fans on to keep the air circulating. Please don’t [...]

He really likes to play defense/keeper.
And he has his very own cheerleader.
We got that cheerleading outfit along with 3 garbage bags full of hand-me-downs from a family who is dear to our hearts. I love receiving hand-me-downs! They’re already worn in and soft. Ever [...]

I think I may be in over my head
School started this week. Dominic is officially in first grade. They have desks that they can put their school supplies in. He’s a big boy now, or so I have been told. I also started school this week. I’m taking 4 classes this semester: Accounting, Government Politics, Business Professional Speaking (aka Speech…bleh!), and a math [...]

Bake Night
The hubs has to work tonight so I think I might do some baking. I have some overly ripe bananas in the freezer that are screaming to be made into banana bread. I picked up some chocolate chips from the grocery store today, so I’m thinking of tossing those in the dough and seeing how it [...]
