At our home, breakfast on Christmas morning is always filled with excitement & joy. After checking our stockings by the fireplace, opening our presents that are under the tree & taking photos of our daughter, it’s usually a mad dash for me or my husband to make some pancakes, eggs & other assorted breakfast items. So this year I decided to change it up a bit & make an egg casserole dish ahead of time that can be popped into the … [Read more...]

Roso Balsamic Glaze

Menchie’s Newest Froyo Flavor – Cinnabon Classic Cinnamon Roll!
Every now & then I like to take my daughter to get frozen yogurt as an after-school treat. Usually I pair her favorite flavor with fresh fruit, like strawberries or bananas. There is a Menchie's frozen yogurt store near her school, which is a convenient after school hang-out for a lot of her friends & their moms. We love the friendly neighborhood feel of the store, the chalkboard wall where kids can draw & color on it, the … [Read more...]
