Mommy! You can make anything you want for breakfast, except cereal.   

My four year old loves to tell me this every weekend.  He wants special and to avoid the mundane.  Yes, we eat cereal and yogurt for breakfast Monday to Friday. But, he is right. Why can't we have something special? Why can't we make breakfast special? In that regard, why can't we make the mundane special from time to time? 

 

Life is busy, so many things take our time and energy. There comes a time when we have to make decisions with our time and our energy.  But can't we try to infuse a little fun.  Yes, we have limited time to do all we want, but we can at least do some of it, right?

 

Hi there! I'm Trish.  I am a wife and a mom of 5. I believe in taking care of myself and my family.  At times that has meant working full time and squeezing in precious family times. Now,  I am fortunate to stay home and take care of my house and family.  In between those responsibilities I try to find opportunities to feed my need to make. Whether arts, crafts, baking or cooking. I am a creative person who finds joy in making and helping other people make.  I love coming up with new family friendly recipes that I can get most of my crew to eat. This blog is a reflection of that.  I know that I have limited time in a day and I have a whole crew of littles. And you know how that goes, they need my attention, and if I am not watching them you know they are getting into mischief.  

​

I love to find creative family friendly ways for my little ones to use their minds and their energy.  But, I also need to feed my mind and creativity.   I hope with this blog I can help you also find opportunities to integrate a little fun and make each day a little less cereal and a little more Belgian waffle.
