In Utah, we celebrate a State Holiday on July 24th commemorating the entry of Brigham Young and the first group of Mormon pioneers into the Salt Lake Valley on July 24, 1847.
Last May, we were able to go to Switzerland and visit the home/farm/family/village were my ancestors migrated from. It left a huge impression on us all, but especially my daughter.
A rustic simple bake. This Blackberry Cobbler will knock your sock off! The recipe comes together really quickly, the longest time requirement is the time spent baking (1 hour). My kind of recipe!!
We love making homemade butter to enjoy with our Pioneer Day Feast.
For those of you wanting to try your hand at homemade butter, it’s a super simple + fun activity for kids!
Pioneer Day is this next week {for those of us in Utah}!
If you need a fun & simple pioneer craft, give these covered wagons a try! My daughter loves making them + they make a great Family Night craft and are a darling addition to our Pioneer Dinner table.
I love holidays. But mostly I enjoy the food that goes with it! After being diagnosed with Celiacs (nearly 7 years ago) I felt downright ripped off. I mean our life so closely revolves around food. Holidays, birthdays, celebrations, BBQ’s… every single social gathering (or so its seems)!
I can say after nearly 7 years, I feel like I finally have it figured out (mostly)! Food allergies stink, and I’m sorry if it’s something you deal with…but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Today I’m sharing our fun Easter Feast from last year. Simple, festive, and delicious.
Need a way to use up the bags and bags of Cadbury Eggs that seem to have snuck into you car and into your house without you even realizing?
I’ve got you covered!
It seems now a days you are bound to know someone with a food allergy(ies). Wether it’s you, a family member or friend it can be a hard adjustment. There are so many awesome companies that cater to food allergies, and the list seems to be growing!
Finding little spring treasures for my daughters Easter Basket along with her new Easter dress (plus a new spring outfit & or jammies) just might be my favorite!
She’s starting to get a bit older, and I feel like its gotten a little trickier to find those small easter treasures… But do you think I could just add things like bubbles, sidewalk chalk and coloring books forever?
Caramel popcorn and summer just seem to go together around our house. Wether its late nights, game night, swim parties, outdoor movies, the lake, fireworks, or camping; you can almost always find a big bowl of fresh homemade Ooey Gooey Caramel Popcorn at hand.
