Peach Crisp

I've been craving peaches!!! Finally bought a whole box. Made this deliciousness! Did not disappoint. Oats and butter were meant to be together. 

Whole wheat bagel with veggie cream cheese, beef jerky, grapes, and carrots.

MENU Aug 23 - Aug 29

Glorified garden nachos

This was my lunch the other day. Yes, I ate it all. By myself. No shame. Tortilla chips, melted cheese, garden tomatoes, avacado, salt and pepper. No further explanation needed. I about died. 

Just because

Aren't daisies the friendliest flowers?! ;)

First day pic

And we're back...

Three lunches this year. That means three kids gone. All day. What!?!?

Onion bagel with veggie cream cheese, mixed nuts, pirate bootie, green apple, cherry tomato. And a smoooshy, lovey note :)

Wrapping Paper Station

I've been planing this project for the longest time! A definite Pinterest success! We had this old cabinet from Ikea that we weren't using anymore, so we repurposed it. I love how it turned out! The rods holding the wrapping paper are removable. The bottom rod has a whole stack of tissue paper.  And I love having gift bags organized by size and hanging neatly. Inside the cabinet doors, on the bottom, I have kids birthday party gifts. I stock up once a year so I'm not running to the store when my kid informs me last minute he's been invited to a party. I also have empty boxes and thank you cards/envelopes. Here's to future gifts and parties!

Peanut Butter Rice Krispie treats

These actually don't LOOK that awesome, but they taste awesome. They look better if you completely cover he top with melted chocolate chips. But I was trying to reduce the sugar a bit. Anyway, make your regular Rice Krispie treat recipe, but substitute half the butter for peanut butter. Everything else is the same. Then top with melted chocolate. Easy peasy. 

Fancy hair

Greta loves getting fancy hair. Then 10 minutes later she makes a fort, climbs in, and it's all messed up again. Good thing I got a picture :)

More chocolate cake

I'm not sure I'll ever find a food I like more than chocolate cake. And this one was dense, and rich, and DIVINE!!!
