Nothing says I love you like a handmade card and breakfast in bed on Father's Day.
Well, maybe one thing, a DIY breakfast tray with a 'made with love' message on it with all of his favorite breakfast items.
I'm showing you how to make this breakfast tray over at 5 Minutes for Mom. It's a great project that you can do together with your child.

Coffee is my jam. It's the first thing I get when I wake in the morning, and helps me get through my day. During the cold weather I prefer hot coffee, but when it's warm and summer has hit, then iced is where it's at.
Now, most of the time, I'm quite happy just pouring a ready-made iced coffee into a glass over ice and going about my work day, but some days a girl just wants a fancy, frou-frou beverage dripping in caramel syrup, with whipped cream that ends up all over your face. But, I'm also too lazy to drive all the way to a cafe to get one. That would involve putting pants on.
So I give you this ...
That's right, this little delight is a frozen caramel macchiato. And it's delicious.
Serving: Makes 3-4 (depending on glass size)

So, you have family and friends coming over for the holidays and you want to do something a little different?
How about a bacon bar?
Oh yes, you know you want one. The possibilities are endless with both sweet and savory dishes that can be served.
I'm going to show you a few simple ideas here, thanks to Smithfield, including egg and bacon breakfast tacos, bacon Bloody Mary's, biscuits with cherry bacon jam, and maple bacon donuts. But, if you scroll all the way to the bottom, I've got a list of other ideas that you can use for your own bacon bar too.
Let's start with an egg and bacon serve-yourself taco bar shall we? I mean tacos AND bacon, need I say more!

When it comes to fall, I immediately gravitate to all things pumpkin, squash, fig, and pomegranate. They are my flavors of fall.
If you ask my kids what their favorite fall dishes are they would immediately say pumpkin pancakes, and my son would closely follow that with pumpkin pie.
This is our second year though of having on an exclusively gluten-free diet after finding out that his body cannot process gluten. So I've been gradually wading my way through his favorite dishes, experimenting in the kitchen and attempting to re-create his favorites but in a gluten-free version.
A while ago you might remember that I posted about a couple of our favorite gluten-free treats from ALDI. One of those in particular was their ALDI-exclusive brand liveGfree® which has Gluten-Free Baking Mix that Flynn has labeled his favorite ... and I'm pretty sure we've tried most of the other brands. So for autumn I decided to attempt his favorite pumpkin pancakes using this baking mix. These will be perfect for fall entertaining, whether you are having visitors over for brunch, or guests staying for the holiday's.
The twins' (even the one who isn't on a gluten-free diet) made a unanimous decision that these were delicious and want me to make them throughout fall.
So I want to share a little about the products, and then I've included the recipe for these down below too.

We often make smoothies around here. The kids love them, I love them (although I don't make them nearly often enough for myself), but when I do they make me feel like I've pumped myself full of the good stuff for at least one meal.
I've been taking Emergen-C for the past couple of years. I especially feel better taking it during the winter months because my health is important to me. I actually really like the taste on it's own, but here's my problem. I am generally really bad about eating fruit and vegetables at home. I graze, I snack, I'll make bacon and eggs for breakfast before picking up a piece of fruit. I know, I know ... BUT, I decided that if I add the Emergen-C to a smoothie, then I'm doubling up on all the good stuff every day. And it leaves me feeling restored.
So, this smoothie recipe is quick and easy to make, and is packed full of Vitamin C.
