One of our favorite (and popular) summer recipes is Mexican Street Corn. We love grilling corn in the summer because the kids love it and it just feels like summer. The great thing about this elote in a cup recipe is that it takes traditional street corn and makes it much more portable and perfect…
My family loves peaches. Honestly, I’m not really a big fan. But because they love them, I try to come up with new and interesting ways to bake with them. Often, I make completely scratch recipes. Sometimes, I prefer to do semi-homemade recipes like this cinnamon roll peach cobbler. These are so easy to make…
I love strawberry season. Well, I love berry season in general. When they are the height of freshness, their flavor is just so amazing. I’ve made lots of different types of strawberry cakes and desserts over the years, but never a strawberry angel food cake. I decided it was time to give it a try….
Earlier this month, I shared my family’s recent experience at Knott’s Berry Farm. I also talked about why I decided to get an annual pass for my kids and me this year. One of the major perks of the gold and platinum passes is having unlimited access to both Knott’s Berry Farm and Knott’s Soak…
If you’re looking for Memorial Day desserts, this red white and blue trifle recipe is a great place to start. The thing I love about this recipe is the fact that it uses fresh fruit, is so easy to make, and looks so cute and festive for the American summer holidays. Even if you’re not…
It’s that spring cleaning time of year. Earlier this spring, I did a segment on KTLA where I talked about some of the products of the year for 2022. All of the products I discussed were awarded product of the year in their respective home cleaning category. One thing I noticed right away was that…
I bet your kids are talking about recycling in school today. I bet they made some earth-shaped crafts, or something similar. I’m sure their teachers talked to them about the importance of caring for our planet. All of that is great, and a worthy thing to teach kids. But have you ever thought about sustainability…

Disney Parks and Disney Cruise Line hosted us, including our excursion to Pearl Island. All opinions are my own. Disney Cruise to the Bahamas When Disney Parks invited us to visit Walt Disney World AND go on a Disney Cruise to the Bahamas, I honestly couldn’t believe it. For several days, I was in shock….
This post about summer camp is sponsored by Camp Galileo. All opinions are my own. Last summer, my kids attended Camp Galileo, a leader in innovative summer camps.This year, Galileo Learning reached out to us and offered us a free week of camp and I can honestly say that it was my kids’ favorite week…
About five months ago, I met the owner of PKLR sport. I had no idea what PKLR stood for. He explained PKLR stands for ‘pickler’. So what is a pickler you ask? Someone who plays pickleball. Prior to meeting him, I had never even heard the term pickleball, I knew nothing of the sport, and…
It’s almost that time of year to get ready for Easter. That’s why I made these cute nutter butter Easter bunnies. They are so easy to make and my kids loved them! They didn’t turn out as perfectly as I’d like, but they are very fun and festive for the Easter holiday. What is a…
Have you taken your kids in a pony ride yet? One of my fondest memories as a very little child was riding ponies at Bay Beach in Green Bay. I always loved riding the ponies and I realized recently that my kids have never ridden a horse or a pony. That’s why I decided to…
Most of the time, I share dressier looks. I love to dress up, but honestly, I hardly ever get to wear dressy clothes. I work from home most of the time, so I rarely need to wear my business professional or even business casual clothes. On the weekends, even if I’m going out with friends,…
