Marinating and tenderizing are two of the easiest and tastiest ways to liven up a dinner. Now there's a tool to help you with both.
I have been using stevia for years. I hate artificial sweeteners and they do TERRIBLE things to your body. Stevia is a plant, and it is 300 times sweeter than sugar. It is also better for you than regular table sugar.
Every once in a while, I find an old post that either I forgot to publish or just never got around to it. Today's is one of those posts! I can't believe I never got this one published because Cocoa Puff devoured these like there was no tomorrow! So, here's the post just like I wrote it wayyyyy back when...
Coffee. Cappuccino. Latte. Espresso. Americano. Whatever form it comes in, I'll take it. I LOVE my coffee. I have a cup (just one, because I have anxiety and panic attacks and mild insomnia and too much caffeine causes BAD things to happen). However, I drink as much pretend coffee as my kids make me.
There's a bit of a tradition we do in our family every year. We make a gingerbread house! I end up doing most of the work, but the kids try to help too!
I had a terrible time when Froot Loop was born trying to get him to get enough breastmilk. I eventually ended up having to pump practically constantly when I wasn’t actually nursing him and I was put on a ton of different supplements to help increase my supply. Eventually, we got our act together and he nursed for almost 3 years!
We have a lot of play food in this house. Froot Loop and Cocoa Puff love to play with the food and dishes in their play kitchen. While I usually go for felt or wooden food, I saw these sets were by Melissa and Doug, so even though they are molded plastic, I thought I’d give them a try.
We’ve had a propane grill for a while and, while it’s convenient to just turn a couple of knobs and get the fires going, it doesn’t really work well for smoking. With this smoker box, it’s a heck of a lot easier. I’ve bought (and gotten as presents) bags of wood chips for smoking. I’ve got a tote container with bags of cherry, pecan, mesquite, and more.
I think one of Froot Loop’s favorite foods is waffles. He often asks for frozen waffles when I take him grocery shopping with me. Melissa and Doug make a cute waffle maker set, and Froot Loop has it.
I have written about essential oils and carrier oils HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE. This is the next in the Essential Oil series: additives for homemade products containing these items.
