These were so much fun and really easy! ♥ Remember those old wooden trucks and blocks that were practically in every elementary classroom throughout the 90s and early 2000s? They're basically just 2x4's cut into different shapes and sizes. Well, we happened to have a small collection of them at home and unfortunately (because my … Continue reading Christmas Decorations

It's creamy, very chocolatey, and absolutely satisfied … Continue reading Simple Vegan Hot Chocolate

So Full Of Wisdom (Teeth)
On the seventh day of Christmas I am thankful for soft foods and a next day dentist appointment.
