Summer is in full swing, and we are enjoying every minute. I love making easy desserts that don't have a lot of sugar. The quick healthy and easy Gluten-Free Vegan Lime pie is Guaranteed to please everyone!

At the end of every school year, we take the big kids out to celebrate. If they can't agree on a restaurant, we will go out twice. This year we decided to skip the crowed Friday night patio and have a special dinner at home.

Now that Bennett is here and I spend most of my day rocking or swaying him, I thought it was the perfect time to give the porch a little makeover and add some summer decor.

Like most of 2020, Father's Day is going to look a lot different this year. I usually wake up early to start preparing a big brunch honouring my Daddy & Anthony. I set a beautiful table, bake muffins, crack eggs, and smile while thinking about the photos I'll capture.

I'm terrible at making myself breakfast. I don't particularly like eating first thing, and by the time I remember I haven't eaten breakfast, it's time for lunch. Yesterday, I decided to test out a few breakfast cookie recipes I found online. I combined ingredients from 3 and came out with the perfect breakfast cookie for me. Good fats, Gluten-free, lots of protein, and high in fibre, oh, and they are vegan!

I love the colour white. It's so fresh looking and matches every style. Unfortunately, that perfectly bright look only lasts for so long. Here's a quick and easy way of getting your favourite white shoes back to their original glory.

A few weeks ago, we were almost doubling our grocery bills, anyone else?

I thought it would be helpful to share some of the ways we are going to keep busy over the next two or so weeks. One of the best ways to keep kids entertained and in one place for longer than five minutes is to build a fort. It doesn't have to be fancy or cost any money.

It's been two years since our family started a lower waste lifestyle. When we first made the decision, the options and the cost seemed overwhelming. When I do something, I like to go all in! At the time, In my mind, if I wasn't eliminating everything, there was no point in doing it at all. But I quickly saw how going down that rabbit hole would leave me poor and frustrated, so I started to research the best places to start.

My favourite Gluten Free cookie is oatmeal chocolate chip! These cookies are nut-free, vegan, healthy, and take only a few minutes to make.

I decided to blog about Bennett's arrival, mostly for me to have while it's all fresh in my mind. But also as a way to thank the nurses who lovingly watched over him while he was in their care.

This lemon delight is perfect for Mother's Day or any occasion this summer. It's simple and beautiful. I did make a glaze with icing sugar and lemon juice, but the organic icing sugar makes it off-white and almost invisible, so I sifted a small amount of icing sugar on time to add some colour.

Cake for breakfast? YES! and with 3 cups of carrots, and 1 cup of walnuts, why not?! This Gluten-Free carrot cake is delightful and easy to make.

During the holidays we have a lot of visitors! Often they bring us some yummy treats to enjoy during their visit. Anthony has been on a Gluten-Free diet for the last 3 years.

I missed the boat getting this up in time for our Thanksgiving in Canada, but next weekend it's Thanksgiving in the US and the official start of the holiday season.

Apple Crisp is one of the easiest Fall desserts to prepare; it's also one of our favourites. I make mine with extra oats, so it's basically breakfast. 

For the past 2 years, I've been sending my kiddos to school with a zero-waste lunch. The first year I had a few slip-ups, but last year I didn't miss a day.

Our very first garden was a massive success on so many levels — Pride, convenience, and yummy vegetables free of chemicals. The kids love checking to see what's ready to be picked.

Today I'm going to share some of my favourite, keep in your closet, wear until they have holes are falling apart, maybe even longer pieces. So you can get your wishlist ready for when the sale becomes public on Thursday. Trust me; stuff sells out quickly, you'll want to be prepared.

We try to have family photos taken once a year or every 18 months. I think it's important to be in the pictures with my family, and document how we've all changed. Some of our best memories are made at these family photoshoots. Naturally, Deegan is usually the star.
