The first time I made this delicacy I was pregnant with Michael, and I have made it many times since then. At the time I was craving something sweet, sugary, and chock full of carbs, and of course there was nothing in the house to fulfill that craving. Keith and Jacob were fast asleep in their beds, and of course babe was a jiu jitsu that particular night, so running to the store was out of the question. I took to Pinterest, as I normally do when hungry and don’t know what I want, and saw a coffee cake. That’s all it took for me to decide I needed a paleo coffee cake in my life immediately. I went in the kitchen and this is what came out from a hodge podge of different recipes. I love it because its filling. One small slice will fill you up, unlike regular coffee cakes where you eat the whole pan and wonder what happened and are still hungry. I made this that night, and it was the boys breakfast the next few mornings, too. They ate it up fast, and Keith and Jacob still do not know it’s not junk food. Mommy sneaking in healthy food for the win. You can use different nuts if you like, but I had walnuts on hand the first time and I’ve used pecans other times, both with the same success.

Holiday Decor, Edible Snowmen Edition
Interior Design Principles
Snowman is a fun character. He can make you smile, and he has been mankind’s buddy for a long long time. There is something magical about being around snowman and snow women – they are able to lighten up the ambiance and help set the mood to celebrate the holiday season.
Activated Charcoal: Why No Mama Should Be Without It
Deep Roots at Home
Activated charcoal is not the kind found on your burnt toast!
Activated charcoal is a highly adsorptive antidote for emergency use (and a few other no-emergency uses), able to rapidly mop up toxins and chemicals. Toxins adhere or stick to the very porous surface of the charcoal, so nothing is absorbed by the body – instead passing through and out of the GI tract. It is a fine, black powder that is odorless, tasteless, and nontoxic, and it has proved its value over and over again.
DIY Snowman Hat from Thrift Store Finds
Live Randomly Simple
Today I am bringing you something so fun that I am still sitting here looking at it in amazement! AmieJo from Life’s Little Projects contacted me and asked to collaborate a DIY Christmas craft from Thrift Store finds with a few other ladies! {I cannot wait to see what they all made, you can check out their projects at the bottom of the post!}
31 Days in Proverbs Devotional Collection
Faithful Feat
Life gets so busy.
And let’s face it…we often become distracted and end up pushing our devotional time to the side in hopes of saving time. We’re all guilty of it…we all want to do better…but when we feel this heightening level of tension, we realize God isn’t the one who drifted.
We did.

Strawberry Cheesecake Muffins Recipe
Southern Krazed
Who’s up for a delicious delight today? These Strawberry Cheesecake Muffins will surely melt in your mouth! I LOVE cheesecake and strawberries. Combined, oh YUM!!! They are terrific with a hot cup of coffee for an afternoon snack or an after dinner desert! Can I say simply sinful?!
Cranberry Sangria
Upstate Ramblings
The holidays celebrations mean holiday cocktails! And one of the easiest holiday cocktails to make is Sangria, because you can make it ahead of time and chill it until the party starts. I made this Cranberry Orange Sangria with white wine for one of our holiday celebrations, and served it my new Curva Artisan double walled glasses.
To Use Hashtags or Not? Get Answers.
Earning and Saving with Sarah Fuller
Okay! I will be the first to admit for as long as I have been blogging, I still have had my questions about the proper use of hashtags with social media.
Nagging thoughts of am I hashtagging too little or too much? Am I using the right type of hashtags for the given situations? Well, I have finally had enough of this wondering and have gone in search of some answers. Figured while I am undertaking this journey, I should share what I learn so that it may clear up the hashtag dilemma for other folks, as well. Here is what I found out:
Mini Mimosa Cupcakes
This Silly Girl’s Life
Okay, okay, now I know I’ve said this a thousand times BUT…. these HAVE to be the best cupcakes I have ever made.
I know. Trust me on this, these little cuties are just bursting with mimosa flavor! How adorable will they be on your holiday brunch spread OR at a New Year’s Ever party….swoon.
Arm Knitting the Infinity Scarf
scrapality
Have you finished your Christmas shopping? I’m basically finished, besides baking madness and a few craft projects.
One of the craft projects this year is the Infinity Scarf. I’ve wanted to learn how to knit or crochet, but up until now I haven’t really tried to learn.
Planting Amaryllis Indoors
Garden Up green
I finally went to the farm store and purchased my Amaryllis bulb. You’ll notice I decided to plant in a white ceramic pot instead of my box. This pot was already full of dirt and honestly it just made my life a little easier. I like adding white accents indoors; they can clean up the atmosphere of any room. This bulb will bloom into a red and white beauty; I’m excited to watch the process as there is always so much detail to witness. Today I’m sharing how easy it is to get an Amaryllis bulb started with stuff you already have, making this a fun Christmas project that won’t break the bank.
Monday MakeUp- Matte Lipstick
Confessions of the Perfect Mom
Do you love matte lipsticks? I know that I do. Sometimes though, I find that they are incredibly hard to pull off. Matte lipsticks are not know to be the most friendly makeup to work with. They have a tendency to be dry (and drying), they show cracks, they can make lips look smaller. But with a little prep work they are wonderful, for those times that you don’t want a shiny, sticky, sparkly mess on your lips.
Chocolate Peppermint Cupcakes
With A Blast
I am still on a Peppermint kick and think Dimitri is especially happy about it, as he is a huge fan of anything Peppermint and these Chocolate Peppermint Cupcakes are no exception.
The cupcakes are not only rich in color, but in taste as well with the added Mint Crunch. I am not sure whether Mint Crunch is available everywhere as I found mine at our local baking supply store. No brand name which makes me think the store buys in bulk and then re-package.
Cookies for Santa (Creating a Christmas Tradition)
Crystal & Co
Cookies for Santa has been a tradition at our house since my first son was born.We generally open one gift from under the tree (pajamas), leave out milk and cookies and then read Twas the Night Before Christmas as a family.The milk and cookies do not have to be elaborate. You don’t have to decorate the cookies, although you can if you want. It is a great memory your kids will always cherish. You can do simple cookies or even store bought.
Personalized Snowman Mugs
Almost Supermom
I love personalized homemade gifts. I would prefer something homemade over something store bought any day, unless you are going to buy me a car, then I really, really want the car.
These mugs are super cute and crazy easy to make, you just need a mug, a couple sharpies and an oven and you are all set!
Easy Homemade Buttermilk Pie
Happy Mothering
I started baking this recipe for Homemade Buttermilk Pie when we lived in Uruguay, and it was always a big hit with everyone who tried it. If you’re having trouble imagining what a buttermilk pie would taste like, it has the flavor and texture of a yummy vanilla custard.
Hershey Bar Reindeer – Holiday Craft
About A Mom
As the Christmas holiday quickly approaches, I have another fun holiday craft to share with you – Hershey Bar Reindeer. This one is very simple and a great one to do with the kids. As with most craft projects, I didn’t have all of the supplies to make what I was envisioning. Our Grateful Turkey Box craft for Thanksgiving took the last of our brown craft paper, so I made do with brown packing paper. For the antlers I made used pipe cleaners. Even with a few deviations from my initial plans, these Hershey Bar Reindeer turned out pretty cute.
