Petit Foodie

Ever get tired of the same old thing for dinner?

I know I sure do its just never ending. The same old boring recipes. That’s why I love thisrecipe so much. You can change a few ingredients and it gives it a completely different appeal. Love.

I’m a simple girl. I don’t like a lot of ingredients [...]

Whew it’s been awhile!!  Where has the month of July gone?!  Things have been hectic but we have been managing to enjoy our summer months ’round here. 
Ava is having a blast spending time with family and even making a quick trip to the beach.  She will be starting kindergarten soon {cries}! She is so very excited [...]

My sister gave me this blueberry pie recipe a few years ago.  I have never used any other!  Strangely I had never had a fresh blueberry until about 3 years ago!  Crazy I know.  They are now my favorite food!  I can’t think of any better way to eat them than in a pie coated with butter, [...]

Today I had the day off from work.  It was a simple kind of day! The kind I have not had in awhile!  Other than a few minor chores Ava and I spent the day lounging about and soaking up the sun!  We got her a new fancy sprinkler and she spent hours outside.  It [...]

Today, my baby turns FIVE!! I can’t hardly believe it!  She is the happiest soul around!  I must say the past five years have been nothing short of pure bliss! 

I hope she always dreams!

I hope she always keeps her genuinely kind heart
 
I hope she always keeps her free spirit

I hope she always keeps her internal beauty

Mostly, I hope she [...]
