October is Here!

October is here!!! Every October my friend at Pugnacious Vegetarian does the October Project- a different photo every day of the month. It's an amazing time capsule of a fun time of the year. If you are looking for some Halloween inspiration or maybe just some inspiration in general- I highly recommend it! http://thepugnaciousvegetarian.com/

Donughts on a Grill

My little family went camping for Labor Day and I made some yummy donughts on the grill! 

What you need:

Can of buttermilk biscuits

Cinnamon and Sugar

Vegetable Oil

Grill

Pan

Tongs 

Get about a 1/2 inch of oil to a bubble over the grill. 

Place a biscuit in the pot with the center cut out ( a water bottle works great for making the hole). 

Flip with tongs. 

When both sides are golden brown remove.

 Sprinkle hot donught or shake in a bag with cinnamon and sugar. 

Devour! 

Snack Attack

Easy and yummy - 2 things I love! 

Microwave popcorn 

Top with smoked paprika and garlic powder

Slice cheddar cheese

Snack Away! 

What do you like on your popcorn? 

Easy DIY Oatmeal Bath

Who knew making homemade oatmeal bath is this simple?!
Using rolled oats (old fashion) & working in small batches, grind. I used the milling blade on my baby food processor. Oatmeal bath for less than pennies! I make a big batch for my son's baths and store in an airtight container. Works great for eczema, diaper rashes and itchy skin.

Welcome to my Kitchen EZ Tofu Press

I was recently gifted an EZ Tofu Press http://amzn.com/B007LLGMG2 - wow!

I am not a vegetarian and only cooked tofu once - it was too time consuming getting that water out. Not with this lil guy! Water came pouring out and in 15 minutes it was ready for the pan.

I kept it simple- firm tofu, olive oil sprayed in the pan, and adobe. Crisp it up, add 1/3 cup water, 1/2 packet of taco seasoning and a dash of taco sauce. Reduce sauce and serve with your favorite taco fixings.

Yum! Easy! <3 br="" it="">

Sunday Small Things- wk 11

One of my guilty pleasures ( one of many) - peanut butter on chocolate donughts. After a week with a sick 1 year old I needed to indulge! So, this week I'm thankful for a little treat and finally a happy little man again! What were you thankful for this week?

Sunday Small Things- Wk 9

Last week I found myself thankful for SOOO many things. My little man turned 1!

To have a happy, healthy, thriving boy is the greatest gift I've ever received. I found myself being thankful for each giggle, tear, silly kiss, dadada, and mamamam this weekend. This last year went by so quickly I can only imagine how quickly he'll be asking for the car keys!
