Happy Halloween!! I love Halloween and I’m so excited for my son to go trick-or-treating as a farmer with his dad and for me to stay home with our almost 5-month-old son, who will be dressed as the farmer’s cow.

Chocolate Chip Applesauce Muffins
A perfectly chocolatey and delicious muffin that’s full of flavor and healthier ingredients. This is one chocolate muffin you don’t have to feel guilty about eating! There’s no doubt that I love chocolate. I remember the first time I ate a chocolate muffin. It was one of those massive chocolate muffins from Sam’s Club and…

Grilled (or Baked) Brown Sugar Salmon

Here at our house we’ve had the air conditioner ready to click on as soon as it gets just too warm in our house. Yes, we’re still running the AC in northern Utah in October. Our house tends to get really warm where we all sleep on the second level. On Wednesday night my husband…
