I recently began experimenting with gluten free baking. The brownie is sweet, moist and has a nice consistency. The sprinkles add color and fun to the brownie. My kids and my husband ate these up! Here is the recipe: [tabs] [tab title=”Ingredients”] 1 cup of unsalted butter 1 cup of sweetened cocoa 1.5 cups of sugar […]
Easy Sprinkle Cookie
This cookie reminds me of when I was little and my dad would bring me home a sprinkled cookie from the bakery. I always love these cookies because they were so buttery, crunchy and sweet. I was craving this type cookie this past week so decided to make them one afternoon with my daughter. I […]
Art Maker by ABC’s Play School
I highly recommend this fun and educational app. I found it when searching in the app store for apps that incorporate symbolic play. When you first open “Art Maker” you get to choose a background. The backgrounds wiggle to remind you to choose. The backgrounds vary from an ocean to a farm and even underwater. […]
Yummy Madeleine Cookies
I have been trying to achieve an excellent Madeleine cookie since trying them a couple of years ago in a bakery. Madeleine cookies are sweet and delicious. They taste a bit like sponge cake. Nothing like butter, sugar, vanilla and flour! What a perfect union. My daughter is in a stage now that she LOVES […]

The bread is moist, sweet and delicious. It’s great by itself or warmed with some peanut butter, almond butter or biscoff spread. I got […]
Bear’s Birthday

This book happens to be especially special because this past week was my daughter’s birthday. We read this book many times over and over again. The […]
Food App: Matzah Ball Builder
This app I came across when searching for Passover apps for my children. I was curious and decided to download it (it was 99 cents so it wasn’t much of an investment). The app is like a Mr. Potato Head for the Matzah Ball. You can choose various backgrounds and body parts. I would love […]

I love peach tea but hate all of the sugar or artificial sweeteners. Here is a simple peach iced tea recipe that is slightly sweet but not overpowering. You can modify it however you want with frozen fruit and adjust the nectar and sugar to your liking. This tea feels like a treat when you […]
