Interested in some podcasts for adults? Sarah shared her master list here. Do you listen to podcasts with your kids? I love it as both a form of entertainment (screen-free entertainment!) and as another medium for learning. For all of the podcasts on this list, the kids think of these as purely entertainment, and I […]
If you’re interested in more DIY skin-care potions, check out these posts. Today we’re sharing the recipe for a super simple evening face oil. This potion is much simpler than our winter face oil.

In addition to sharing our resolutions this month, we’re also going to share some of the good habits that we’ve picked up over the years. We try many things, but these are the ones that stuck. What is a podcast? It’s simply a digital file that you can download on the internet, usually part of a series, and […]
Our Cooking with Kids post are taking a major step forward this week in that there are no parents involved! We’re going to have to change to name of this series to Kids Cooking. And I’m 100% A-OK with that. Both boys love to help with meal prep, but 7 y.o. Alex was really itching […]
Need a drink? More cocktail recipes here! There aren’t many August Afternoons left. Use them wisely. Last week we had a pile of ripe Colorado peaches sitting on the counter.
