When I’m pregnant … (OH yeah, get used to that sentence, I’m kind of a different person when I’m pregnant, and I feel the need to explain myself so you don’t think I’ve been holding out on you with my true personality or some other such drama)… Anyway, when I’m pregnant, I crave healthy food with […]
About Anna
I believe in God, the power of optimism, and the ability of food to bring people together. I love to share everyday homemade food with family and friends (and the internetz)! I love cheese, proper grammar, an organized house, dark chocolate, my husband, and my 5 sweet kids.

Monday Must-Haves
Happy Monday! It’s a holiday Monday ’round these parts, which means no work for me, and lots of time to bake and cook and craft! I have a bunch of recipes from last spring and summer calling my name, wanting to be made again, so I thought I’d give you a little run-down of some […]
There Must Be Something In The Water
Have you noticed I’ve been totally slacking on the blogging lately? It makes me kinda sad, since I love this little internet place that lets me go on about anything and everything, and I miss it. But not as much as I miss my cookies. Get it? I’ve been losing my cookies? Yes, you got […]
6 Years and Counting
Well, I may be a couple days late, but I couldn’t miss the opportunity to mention the fact that Carl and I celebrated 6 years of marriage on Sunday! Photo credit: Charlene Stam Photography Caught up amidst Gemma’s birthday and Mother’s Day, our anniversary is always the milestone that gets a quick mention and very […]
Pink Lemonade Cupcakes {cookbook review}
Well, Gemma’s birthday has come and gone, and great fun was had by all! (This post is kinda huge, so settle in :)) This was the first birthday we celebrated in a big way and it’s given me a glimpse into my future of late nights hanging streamers and balloons, last minute trips to the […]
Birthday Girl
My beautiful girl turns 4 tomorrow! It feels like yesterday she made her appearance in the world, instantly making us fall in love with her and changing our lives for the better. I remember being blown away as Carl and I walked out of the hospital with her that they were letting us take a […]
Saturday Sweets: Grilled Strawberry Nutella Sandwich
It’s not too often I recommend eating a Saturday sweet recipe for breakfast and/or lunch! This probably falls into the spot as #1 healthiest Saturday Sweet on our blog, but it is too sweet not to be considered perfect for the list. Not to mention you can be enjoying it a mere 10 minutes after […]
Furniture Refinish: Toy Cupboard
I’ve mean meaning to share this cupboard with you for ages, but I somehow managed to lose the before picture, so you’ll have to use your imaginations! When my in-laws moved into the basement, it required some significant downsizing, and one piece of furniture they were going to get rid of was their large highboy […]
Butternut Squash & Jalapeno Cream Soup
Ok, I know it’s spring and people are turning away from thoughts of squash and soup, but seriously, this cannot wait for fall. Despite my super cute new bathing suit and an exciting trip and family wedding in the plans, I am putting off thoughts of summer for as long as I can, and the […]
Soft Homemade Pretzels
Pretzels!! I love bread. I love salt. I love salty bread. This was part of a blogging challenge, and ranked up there as something I’ve kinda thought about trying but probably never would have if there hadn’t been a deadline and expectations. This is why I love deadlines – all sorts of great things get […]
