When we first discovered Ella was struggling in school, one of her teachers suggested giving her a healthy, protein packed start to her day. We had heard that foods such as milk, cheese, yogurt and other protein packed breakfast items, versus a carb laden breakfast, could help kids remain focused and stay fueled until lunchtime. [...]
Simplifying Spring {Recipe: Decadent Scrambled Eggs}
I’m partnering with KRAFT on this wonderful brunch recipe, and chatting about my current obsession… farmhouse living.

You see, a house we have loved for [...]
When Breakfast Saves Dinner {Recipe: Simple Spinach Quiche}
When someone asks me what my favorite tip is to simplify mealtime, besides menu planning, my answer would be to let breakfast save dinner. Breakfast saves dinner around our house quite often.

Secrets to the Perfect Omelet {Gourmet Garden Giveaway!}
