Last weekend we were in northern Wisconsin with a couple friends and their kiddos and we got home late Monday night. It was our first true vacation in years and although a vacation isn't "vacation" with littles, it was a great change of pace and nice

Taste Test Tuesday: Watermelon Kombucha

August 4, 2021 by lindsaylcallaway |

I started getting into kombucha years ago, before I had kids. I know there are a lot of gut benefits from it so I figured I'd buy a few flavors and see if I can find one I enjoy. I saw this watermelon flavor from Health-Ade and it screamed summer!

Taste Test Tuesday: Lemon Baton Wafer Cookies (Trader Joe’s)

July 28, 2021 by lindsaylcallaway |

In true Trader Joe's fashion, you go in for a specific list and you leave with much more! The seasonal items get me every time and the placement of these are not coincidental. These people know exactly what they are doing! I was checking out and saw

Taste Test Tuesday: Chicken Crisps (Epic Provisions)

July 21, 2021 by lindsaylcallaway |

I have been a huge fan of the pork rinds from Epic Provisions and buy them pretty regularly. When I was at the grocery store this week I saw these chicken crisps and was very intrigued! My hopes were pretty high that these would be a great cracker

It just occurred to me that we're halfway through summer, which gives me all sorts of feels. For one, surviving a midwest winter means that end of May/early June is our time to finally be outside and to to think about that time going away is

Taste Test Tuesday: @theskinnybutcher chicken dipp Taste Test Tuesday: @theskinnybutcher chicken dippers -with bbq sauce

These were not what I was expecting but I was pleasantly surprised! I immediately thought it was a great snack for a kiddo before that weird activity time.. too early for dinner but ends too late not to eat before. I also thought of a new mom who doesn’t have time to feed herself while feeding her baby! But also, anyone who needs a high protein snack at the ready. 

I’ll be buying these again and would try their other options too!

Have you tried these?

Egg Bites Series Part THREE ✨ Today I tried @appl Egg Bites Series Part THREE ✨

Today I tried @applegate and @wholefoods 365 brand. 

I loved the amount of bacon in the one from Applegate and found the texture light and airy but the edges were a little rubbery from microwaving. I’m sure air frying would be better for these but I’m trying to keep consistency in the heating process!

The 365 brand reminded me of the Costco version. Iconically the bacon flavor was really nice, even without pieces of bacon! 

Still at #1 remains @3pigspate 🏆🥇

What else should I try?!

11 years of celebrating our anniversary at the pla 11 years of celebrating our anniversary at the place where it all began 🤍

Every year feels a little more nostalgic as we get to tell our growing boys about the day we got married. We start at the sign for our annual photo, then head inside for champagne (kiddie cocktails for the boys, of course 🥂), before walking out to the courtyard to relive the ceremony.

The boys love watching the river, and every year I’m reminded all over again what a perfect venue we chose—not just for our wedding, but for this tradition we’ve created as a family.

Feeling extra grateful for the life we’ve built and so blessed that our boys get to be part of these memories with us. Here’s to continuing this little tradition for many, many years to come. 🤍
Egg Bites Series Part TWO ✨ I ordered these @3pig Egg Bites Series Part TWO ✨

I ordered these @3pigspate egg bites from @misfitsmarket and we were so impressed! 

The texture was delightful and the bacon flavor was definitely the star. While I wish it had more bacon, I thought the overall bite was top notch . 👌🏼

We still have many to work through but this one quickly rose to the number 1 spot! 🥇
