To The Mom Who Is Just Plain Tired
Our family went through some cycles during this quarantine in the attempt to bring joy into our home. It began with things like slime. As I started to tire out and get less creative, we went straight to baking. The sweet treat seemed like hope. When spring came, we...
Mexican Corn Salad
This is my son's very favorite side dish during the summer. There are a lot of ways to make Mexican Corn Salad, but the version I like to make leaves out the creaminess of mayo or sour cream and just goes for the fresh summer ingredients. I could eat this alone with...

The Quarantined Summer (The Best One Yet?)
Well, for most people here in Nebraska and the surrounding states, school is over. Does that mean summer started? It doesn't feel as though there is a clean break this year. We are going from quarantine to… less of a quarantine? The lines get a little fuzzy. So what...
Accept. Breathe. Proceed.
