Vegan Pancakes
Two things that always go together well – food & family! Vegan pancakes were breakfast today! Merci made them and they were super yummy! The whole family loved them from our toddler to Daddy! This makes for one happy mama! We cooked them in coconut oil and substituted animal ingredients for vegan ones. We used […]
Trust in the Lord
God is ever faithful in life, even when we can’t see it. 🙈 I’m always teaching my children (while reminding myself) to trust God and pray. 🙏 Sometimes it can be hard to see His hands in our lives as He’s working in it. But looking back on my life, I can see the many […]

Weekend Blessings
We created a new recipe for lunch as a family. We will post how to make it on the blog soon when we start adding recipes! We’re still loving kukicha tea, even the kids! We picked up an awesome deal at Sprouts Farmers Market on fresh wild caught salmon for only $4.99 a pound – so we bought 50 pounds to stock the […]

Our weekend harvest – Pumpkin and Pumcchini® Squash! 😍 We would like to combine different types of squash to create our own custom hybrids. We created the pumpcchini® squash this year! 👀 So cool! It is the shape and size of a pumpkin, plus the extra sweetness and texture of the zucchini inside! It’s amazing both raw and cooked! It grows in a […]

Yes, he is a blessing from […]
Kukicha Tea
Norm has been reading the book Confessions of a Kamikaze Cowboy: A True Story of Discovery, Acting, Health, Illness, Recovery, and Life by Dirk Benedict (Face from The ATeam). He talks in the book about how he cured himself from cancer! It’s such an interesting read that he’s almost finished the book in a week! Good job, Baby! In the […]
Our Family Expedition
I’ve kept the same car for 3 years today. Wow! This is definitely worth celebrating because being married to a mechanic, I’ve been lucky to test drive and own all kinds of cars. I’ve driven sedans, sports cars, SUVs, trucks, vans, and luxury cars, too. It took me a long time find the right car to stick […]
