Woodland Unicorn 3rd Birthday Party for Baby A

Woodland Unicorn 3rd Birthday Party for Baby A…Despite how busy life is these days, my kids keep getting older and having the most wonderful birthday parties!  Baby A turned 3 this year, and she had just two requests: (1) a unicorn birthday party with (2) a rainbow cake.  Huh.  You guys know me, I am not one to do the standard, cliché, seen it a million times, typical theme birthday parties…so having to do yet another unicorn birthday was not really jiving with me.  If you recall, Baby J also wanted a unicorn party last year, but to be creative and different we went with a Zombie Unicorn theme; so, doing this more traditional party was a challenge.  But I think we pulled off something a little different than the average Pinterest/Google Images unicorn party…

Key Lime Pie Donuts

Key Lime Pie Donuts…I hope quarantine and isolation are going well for everyone.  If it isn’t, here is something to brighten your day and delight your taste buds: Key Lime Pie Doughnuts.  Seriously, these are life changing.  I am very grateful that I have a backyard for the kids to play in, warm weather to enjoy, sunshine streaming in my windows for my houseplants, a healthy family…and these KEY LIME PIE DONUTS!  Things could certainly be better, but they could absolutely be worse.  So, I am feeling very blessed and thankful these days, and juicing a lot of key limes…

Dinos and Donuts 2nd Birthday Party for Baby J

Dinos and Donuts 2nd Birthday Party…My little girl recently turned two and we threw her a Dinosaurs and Donuts party!  She absolutely loves dinosaurs, and I absolutely love doughnuts, so it was a perfect combination. And it wasn’t even that hard to throw a dinosaur party with a feminine vibe…

Turquoise Baby Sprinkle for Baby #2 (x 2!)

Turquoise Baby Sprinkle for Baby #2…When you have a second baby, you don’t have a Baby Shower but rather a Baby Sprinkle. You already have so much from Baby #1, you only need to be sprinkled with gifts rather than showered with gifts. Cute, right?  I have friends who live in two different parts of the country, so I actually had two baby sprinkles for Baby #2!  One was thrown by my loving husband at our house and the other by my two lovely girlfriends at the local community centre!  So much fun…

ActiFry Pumpkin Spice Donuts

ActiFry Pumpkin Spice Donuts…Donuts are arguably the greatest food on Earth. With their crispy exterior, that gooey filling oozing out with each bite, the lickable sticky fingers. But if you’re trying to lose weight or eat healthier, donuts don’t really fit into diet plans or macro counts or nutrition programs. Baked donuts are an OK alternative, but it’s just not the same…
