Adventures of a Military Family of 8
No Anchor Can Hold Us Down...
I love baking with the kids, it’s a perfect time to spend some time together and chat, laugh, and make a collective mess. There are 8 humans in our home, collective messes are our specialty! This Recipe: How to Make Cute Penguin Cupcakes requires almost no mess at all though, you can easily buy store bought cupcakes and only worry about making the penguins. No baking mess!
Our Family was invited to watch an advanced screening of The Nutcracker movie last week, I promise I will not spoil it. I had never seen or read any version of the Nutcracker so I was excited. I’m not sure how the original story or play go, but this movie took my breath away! The scenes, dances and story was so beautiful and full of magic. I recommend that you go watch it and see it for yourself, I know that you will not be disappointed! I hope that you enjoy this Nutcracker Soldier Rice Krispie Treat Recipe & Coloring Pages.
During the Holidays we host a lot of get-togethers for both Adults and teenagers alike. I love to make the kids fun drinks while the adults have some as well. I had a lot of fun putting this Ultimate List of Holiday Cocktail & Mocktail Recipes because it gave me so many ideas to choose from! I hope you can find one, two, ten recipes that you will love!
This Recipe: How to Make Pomegranate Agave Martini is one of the tastiest Martini recipes I have made. The rich taste of the Pomegranate and the agave together make it really stand out from the rest. Give it a try, it’s a perfect drink during any time of the year!
When I get a chance to make a “Blood & Brains Cranberry Martini” I take it and enjoy my drink with a smile! I love this season because it brings out all the creepy and spooky things that I love. The bonus is that people won’t stare too much, at least not for the wrong reasons lol! I asked high and low for links to find my favorite spooky themed drinks and the internet did not disappoint! Here are The Spookiest Halloween Drink Recipes Ever!
Here is another fun and super easy recipe I have made with the kids this week. I can not tell you enough how much I love to create EASY things! It gives me so much time to be able to enjoy the treats and watch a Halloween movie. We bake a lot during the cold months because not only does it seem that there is more time to spend indoors, but it also warms up the house! I hope you enjoy our recipe for learning How to Make Delicious Chocolate Creepy Trees.

It’s my favorite time of year! Baking, decorating, giving treats, it’s something that makes me SO happy! This means I am searching for months looking for recipes that I will be making. I bake, cook, create things throughout the entire Holiday season and I give them away. There is something magical about the days that make me get into the spirit. I hope you enjoy these 20 Christmas Candy Recipes to Celebrate the Season
Ah, what to do with all this leftover candy!? Once everyone’s gotten sick of eating candy on its own (who am I kidding?!). Has that ever happened? There’s no way our candy lasts until we’re sick of it. While I love chocolate as is, some of them could use a twist. I’ve put together a list of 70+ different recipes that use different candies to make some seriously delicious treats. There’s everything from cookies and brownies to pies and cheesecakes. The one I’m dying to try is the Candy Corn butter, which they say tastes just like Butterfingers. Definitely something I’ll have to make and eat sparingly! I hope you enjoy The Ultimate Leftover Candy Recipe Collection!
This is such an amazing treat for anyone, whether you’re having a party or just want some adorable treats for yourself; these are a super easy fix. It’s so easy that little kids can do this craft all by themselves. It’s perfect for a themed party dessert table or activity; or just a fun night in! I hope you enjoy How to Make the Sweetest Filled Witch’s Hats! You will definitely love the convenience of this fun activity!
