Brooklyn Bean Roastery Breakfast Blend

Brooklyn Bean Roastery K CUp

As the weather is changing, the days are getting shorter and the weather is cooling down, I find myself starting the day with a warm cup of coffee.

Brooklyn Bean Roastery's Breakfast Blend is quickly becoming one of my favorite blends.  When brewed Breakfast Blend looked dark in the cup. I thought it may be a strong coffee, ...

Wild Kratts: Wild Reptiles

Wild Kratts Wild Reptiles PBS Kids

Have you ever watched Wild Kratts on PBS Kids? I stumbled upon it one day when I was home with Peyton when she was little. We were both drawn in.

Children are learning a ton about animals, their behaviors, habitats and environments. Peyton loves it because she loves animals, learning about new animals and seeing the Wild Kratts suits turn ...

Let’s Color Together

Let's Color Together published by Sourebook

Peyton and I do nearly everything together. It's just the two of us, so whenever we are home she tends to stick close by. One of our favorite things to do together is to color. Ever since she has been able to hold a crayon she has loved coloring. I discovered my love for coloring while spending time with Peyton coloring. But I wanted more than coloring a children's book.  Peyton likes to copy everything I do so when we tried using adult coloring books she would become frustrated because they ...
