Delicious Fruit Dip Recipe

Superbowl Sunday is here! We are opting for a low key night at home with our little guys vs our traditional bigger party with friends this year, but we will still break out a few decorations and eat all the yummy food though.

Our 3 year old loves helping in the kitchen and this is a super easy, make ahead recipe he can help with. (Although it can get sticky.) This is a tried and true family recipe that I remember my mom making all the time. (My sister calls it Pink Dip!)

(Don't we all cook in our underwear?)

We will be having this with bananas, strawberries, apple slices and kiwi. (Also goes great with grapes) Makes plenty for leftover snacks this week as well. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
8oz cream cheese, 7oz jar of marshmallow cream, maraschino cherries

Mix the cream cheese (softened) with the jar of marshmallow cream, add some juice from the maraschino cherries. Cut some cherries into 4ths and mix in.

Kid approved!

10 Organization Tips to Manage Digital and Paper Clutter

(Edited and reposted from 1/16/17 blog post that accidentally got deleted) I am a little behind on my new year/get organized post because I went and had a baby 2 weeks ago ;) I wanted to share a quick list of things you can implement today to help organize the digital chaos and control the paper clutter in your life. 1) Set up a Secondary Email Account I have a separate email account for stores and online shopping. This is the email address I give out at checkout and for online purchases. Makes it super easy when out shopping to do a quick search for coupons and easy to locate tracking information as well as receipts you’ve opted to have emailed to you. 2) Unsubscribe Unsubscribe from any newsletters or email lists you no longer find beneficial. If you find yourself constantly deleting without opening, unsubscribe. I should also add read and delete emails every day. A cluttered email inbox, especially if it is a p...

Initials, Inc. - 3 Organization Items Reviewed

I love to highlight game changing products! It is no secret I LOVE organizing, like something could be clinically wrong with me. I can't get enough of Pinterest because of this, shopping at The Container Store and Ikea (yes please!). There used to be a show on TV called The Amanda's, about a group of professional organizers from Alabama that went into homes and organized problem spaces. I would have worked for them if they were local. (Do yourself a favor and follow them on Instagram @theamandasorganizing) If you want to follow my Organization Porn (it's a real thing) Pin with me on Pinterest "Organize It" Pinterest board Anyway, in January I joined this fabulous company, Initials, Inc. as an Independent Creative Partner.

Just a Stage

Today on the way to Play School (think pre-pre school) I caught a glimpse of you in the back seat. All handsome and quietly looking out the window. How are we in this stage; where you now leave mommy to spend time with other adults and children while I run errands with your baby brother? Childhood, and parenthood for that matter, are just a string of stages we carefully, yet optimistically navigate. In your dad and my case case we tend to look back more than forward it seems. We were just lamenting the other night how, in what feels like days, your vocabulary has changed. No longer do you say "structions" (instructions) or "The kea" (Ikea). When we still use your toddler slang, you now correct us. You no longer wake in the night or give us much grief at bedtime. You are even allowing us to take your picture again. Quietly and swiftly we have moved into this preschool stage. This stage where you are becoming more and more independent. You wa...
