Berry Smoothie
:: Berry Smoothie ::
Fruits and vegetables are a struggle in my household. I have a picky eater on my hands, and a little girl who eats enough fruit for the two of them. Vegetables seem to be the bigger battle of the two, so why not throw in a couple into a smoothie?

:: Weekend Lovelies ::
I rarely plan weekend lovelies. Sometimes I bookmark things I come across during the week, but more often than not… I sit at the computer and just let my mind wander. It’s almost therapeutic… leaving the week behind me and letting my mind take over as my fingers dash across the keyboard searching the contents of my subconscious. After a trying week keeping up with my favorite four and Husby’s unrelenting work schedule, I was clearly in the mood for all things light, bright, and pretty — but mostly as they relate to cooking, kitchens, and entertaining. Enjoy, friends … and have a lovely weekend! {xo}

Earthling Month // Whole Foods
I am loving this Earthling Month movement by Whole Foods Market! What is an Earthling, you ask? “Earthlings are people that care about the world around them. Every day during Earth Month, we’re exploring the moments that make us more than human. See what other Earthlings are doing, learn something new, and add a moment of your own via Instagram, Facebook or Twitter.”
What do you do in your home to teach your children about caring for our beautiful planet? We are going to do a small vegetable garden in pots on our porch soon… and are hoping to spend lots of summer days spent rummaging through our local farmer’s markets. We are trying hard to not eat things with labels, and instead… making whole, fresh foods at home.
Living with Less. A Lot Less. // NY Times
The title of this NY Times article speaks for itself. I wish everyone would read this and really take it to heart… Our family is in the process of making some big changes in a quest to simplify our lives which I talked about {here}. What’s your reaction to this piece?
