S'mores Treats
These easy-peasy S'mores Treats bring back such memories of my childhood. I've had a sweet tooth since the beginning, and there's something about this marshmallow-graham-chocolate goodness that will always be sweetly nostalgic for me.
On The Color Pink
Before Maddie Mae was born, I stood up on my soap box and denounced the color pink. I was very adamant about the idea that MM shouldn't be forced to like the color, or bows, or hearts or anything too "girly" simply because she was a girl.
What Maddie Wore
This smiling babe just finished celebrating her first Christmas- filled with friends, family and lots of pretty presents. Madeline made out like a bandit, getting spoiled by us all.
Grinch, Please
Not nasty wasty or full of gunk- even though they look a tid bit scary- these Grinch inspired cookies are a fun + festive treat that are easy enough to make with even the littlest of seasick crocodiles.
Baby's First
There's something about celebrating the holidays with a baby that makes them so magically exciting again. Although I continued holiday traditions in my adult life- hanging stockings, watching Home Alone {incessantly}, mass on Christmas Eve- there's just a new excitement that comes with Christmas with a little one.
L+L Gift Guide II
For my second edition of Holiday Gift Guides for Abigail Fox Designs, I've picked my favorite goodies for the men in our lives.
Ama Te Ipsam
Four years ago, I woke up out of an emotional fog + decided to make a big change in my life. I was living in California, somewhat lost, in a not-so-fairytale relationship, without my tribe, with no direction whatsoever. Yuck.
Santa's Candy Cane Cookies
Admittedly, it's been quite a while since I've baked something, seeing as my arms have been wrapped around my little nugget more often than not. But now that Maddie has become quite the rugrat, it's left me with a bit more free time and at least one extra hand to get back to the kitchen- just in time for some seasonal sweets.
L+L Gift Guide I
Happy Friyay, lovelies! I'm kicking off my holiday gift guides for Abigail Fox Designs with some goodies for those special people that make our lives a little easier-from teacher to babysitter to the hostess with the mostest, here's what I'll be gifting this year...
The Most Wonderful
And just like that... Christmas time is here. Time flies when you're raising a tiny human! This month I'm super excited to be collaborating with a favorite local shop of mine, Abigail Fox Designs.
Feeling Festive
This past weekend we really got into the spirit of the season- pumpkin patch, pumpkin beers, pumpkin loafs... Oh, my! Decorations were brought out of hiding, Maddie donned her Halloween bib {teething=drool, all day 'err day} and we finally got to use those Trick or Treat Roadie cups I've been obsessing over. A trip to the pumpkin patch followed by seasonal treats- brown sugar baked brie, candy corn, and all things pumpkin- made for the perfect autumn day with family and friends.
