Have you ever had to make yourself just

sit back and be in the moment with your kids because they are growing up at a rapid rate?

It used to really bother me when I was a young mom and older moms used to tell me to soak it all in while my kids were little.

I would outwardly smile, and say, “Of course!”, while inwardly, I was drowning as a mom of three little boys.

Now that my boys are preteen/teenagers, I get it.

I get it.

Christmas this year looks a little different than it has in the past. And do you know what?

I might like it even better! Even though my boys were so fun when they were little they are even more fun now that they are teenagers.

But you’ll never catch me telling a young mom to soak it all in because she needs a good break and a nap!

What’s your advice to young, overwhelmed parents of young kids during the holidays?

P.s. If you want to know how to make these Christmas Smores, comment with PEPPERMINT and I’ll send the recipe your way!

“Alexa, add peppermint candy canes,

Vanilla ice cream
Peppermint Syrup
Vanilla Ice Cream
Chocolate Magic Shell
Canned Whipped Cream
and Maraschino Cherries

to my grocery list.”

But only if you have Alexa. That would be weird to say out loud if you didn’t!

This, by far, is one of the best recipes for a Peppermint Chip Shake. For the cost of what you could get one at a restaurant, you could make 4 at home.

These are on repeat in my house all December long.

Comment with SHAKE and I’ll send you the recipe directly.

I’m about to ask you something that has

nothing to do with this video.

Why?

Two reasons.

1. Because I’m a genuinely curious when it comes to peoples food preferences.
2. To see if you’re paying attention.

So, are you team salty or sweet?

I tend to ride right down the middle and cannot refrain from anything salty sweet! It’s just so satisfying.

And if you’re now curious and want this Edible Chocolate Pine Cone recipe, just let me know!

…or had enough followers, or was popular enough, skinny enough, blonde enough, brunette enough, skilled enough or anything and everything in between, I finally made a choice to believe in myself.

I’ve been creating and posting recipes for over a decade and I’m finally coming out with a few cook books!

This revolutionary binder system from @peachie.recipes has made it all possible! My recipes are printed on synthetic paper that is not only tear proof, but water and stain proof as well.

They’ve officially launched so DM me if you want the link!

You might think this Stuffed Pumpkin is absolutely

gross, and my old self would agree with you.

That’s exactly what I thought when I first heard of this recipe years ago.

A dear friend invited us over for dinner and told us this is what we’re having. I was super skeptical, even after I had plated up.

But I’m here to tell you, the very first bite made me a believer that this dish should be the food mascot for fall.

It’s pure heaven and really easy to make!

Comment with STUFFED PUMPKIN and I’ll send you directly to the recipe.

I’m definitely not going to give

the countdown to how many days we have left until Christmas.

It always stresses me out more than I already am.

This year I am determined to get it together and plan our activities and going ons better than I have in the past so I don’t feel so rushed, or that I’ve forgotten something!

If you need a fun little breakfast or brunch idea you can totally make a Christmas Donut Tree (did you see my Acorn Donut Holes!)

So simple and easy. It can be made up to two days ahead as long as you wrap it in plastic wrap until you’re ready to serve. Leave the “snow” and rosemary until the end.

Comment with DONUT TREE and I’ll send you the full tutorial. You’ve got to see my powdered donut holes version, too!

Every now and then we need a

simple no bake recipe that can be put together in minutes and everyone loves!

These Acorn Donut Holes can be made ahead or a fun activity for the kiddos to do this season.

Comment with ACORN and I’ll message you with all the details!

Does your family have a

Christmas breakfast tradition?

For our whole marriage we’ve had Christmas Pull-Aparts, sausage links, scrambled eggs and chocolate milk Christmas morning.

A few years ago we tried adding these Christmas donut trees to the menu, and it actually was just too much.

They are now our Christmas Eve, breakfast tradition! My middle son puts them together the night before. It makes for a fun and easy breakfast.

Message me for the details!

Curious on what your thoughts are on teens still

trick or treating?

We are for and it could be because our neighborhood is really great about it AND most importantly, my boys and their friends are respectful.

We ended up with 3 sheet ghosts this year. Then one brother pulled an inception moment and dressed as a Charlie Brown dressed as a ghost. It was all our favorite!

I hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!

Never in a million years would my younger self

would think this would be one of my top three fall recipes of all time.

Stuffed pumpkin is so underrated and totally unusual. I get it. It’s a little off putting when you think about it.

But I’m telling you, it’s incredibly easy to make, creates a huge impact at the table and is one of the best things you’ll eat all year long!

Message me if you want the direct link to the recipe!

You are going to simply

grab a cake from your local grocery store, add a few eyeball gumballs and use this bat centerpiece to elevate your Halloween party this year.

Yea, I do have a recipe website, but I also know the benefit of saving time when it comes to buying a cake from the bakery! This took me mere minutes to put together and makes a huge impact.

Don’t worry. You can wrap up the base of the electronic piece in plastic so it’s not touching the cake.

Message me if you want the link to the Bat Centerpiece!

I know. I know. It’s totally

gross and disgusting!

But when I tell you it was the highlight of my Halloween Witches party last year, I only have to insist you make your own this year!!

It’s my version of one I saw last year, but I used my cheeseball recipe for the majority of it. I also didn’t only use prosciutto, but a mix of thinly sliced deli ham, too.

You can scroll back a few Reels on my feed and see how it all came together.

Let me know if you want me to share the whole spread!
