This weekend I get to FINALLY plant my spring garden! I am super excited. I have my pre-made raised flower beds ready to be assembled and my vegetables and herbs ready for planting. This might seem early to some, but in Southern AZ, now is the time for planting. April starts to get a little warm for those tender buds. …

Hippity-Hoppity it’s that time of year to start talking all things Spring, Easter, bunnies, chicks, and more! Now before that, let’s return to Halloween for just a minute. Wait, what?!

Easy Mini Rice Krispie Valentine Hearts
It’s time for another episode of Semi-homemade with Jen. That’s the name of my cooking show btw…. well if I had one! I do a lot of from-scratch recipes, but I am firmly in the camp of, “you do not have to do that for EVERY recipe.” If you can bring the fun and good into a recipe AND cut …

Miraculous Ladybug Inspired Sugar Cookies
My two youngest daughters like the show the Miraculous Ladybug. Have you heard of it? I hadn’t, but that’s all changed now! It’s kind of funny that my girls watched it grudginlgy at first because all of their friends said they should, and then they were hooked! It always happens that way, right?

Celebrate January- Four New Printables!
Have you taken down your Christmas decorations yet or is that tree and twinkly lights still standing boldly in your living room? I was able to take mine down this last weekend, but there was one year that Christmas wasn’t completely down until the end of February. Whatever floats your boat, right?! Anyway, I hope I am not alone in …
Angel Food Smoothie
My kids love the Angel Food Smoothie from Smoothie King, and truthfully, I kind of dig them too. The only problem is that to buy 5 plus smoothies is an investment, and so we get them as a treat every once in a while. This week my daughter was asking for one, but since we just had Christmas and spent …

This year we are slowly venturing …
Christmas Rag Wreath
I love making rag wreaths! They are the cutest ever and because there are so many adorable fabrics out there, the sky is the limit for the kind of themes you can select for making a rag wreath!

Easy Turkey Oreos
I am perpetually on the lookout for fun holiday-themed cooking recipes that my littlest daughter and I can do together. She still likes to cook with her mom and doesn’t see it as a chore, so I am going to keep making that tradition work for as long as I can. We made mummy dogs together a few weeks ago …
Baked Pumpkin Cream Cheese Donuts
Who’s ready for a super easy-to-make baked pumpkin donut? I hope you all are! I might be a tad bit obsessed with pumpkin. It is one of my favorite things to create recipes with.
