Deceptively Delicious

Cover Image
I am obsessed with this cook book! 

The idea behind the the book is to get your kids to eat more Vegetables. To start off a special thanks goes out the Andrea Tao, because she is the one that blogged about it, awhile ago, and that really sparked my interest. The Recipes are fantastic, and Kellen has eaten everything that I have put in front of him. Here is a list of the stuff we have tried.
  •  Applesauce Muffins (with Cauliflower)
  • Banana Bread (with Cauliflower)
  • Pancakes (with Sweet Potato)
  • Chicken Salad (with Cauliflower)
  • Macaroni & Cheese (with Butternut Squash)
  • Burgers (with Carrot)
  • Lasagna (with Sweet Potato & Cauliflower)
  • Chocolate Peanut butter Dip (with Carrots)
So it is just a few, but honestly none of us can taste the difference. It just make me happy to know that Kellen is get some really good Veggies in his diet. The next on the list to try are the Grilled Cheese Sandwich's, and the Chili. If anyone wants me to post a recipe, just send me a comment, and let me know which one.

Spring Cleaning


So we did some spring cleaning a few weeks ago and one, of the many treasures we found were 3 rolls of film. I know, crazy right. They were fun to get developed, but this roll was pure gold! These were taken a little over a year ago, here in Rexburg. Kellen was so tiny, it's almost hard to remember him that small. But believe me, he was just as active, and funny then as he is now. Gosh, I sure do love being the mom, to a kid that everyone else thinks is such a stud. I'm not going to lie to ya, Kellen is so funny.

Yes, I had another Birthday


So Preston kick me out of the house for a couple of hours so he could do some redecorating, lucky for me my friend Courtney took pity on me and invited me over to come hang out for a bit. Your the best Courtney we should do it again.


I got spoiled rotten! My Hubby sure does love me.  I have to say my favorite thing he got me was my fancy new Food Processor, and Deceptively Delicious cookbook.  If you don't know about the cookbook already, don't you worry I will fill you in about it in another post. My favorite part of my Birthday, was the fact that we were able to get a babysitter, way last minute. Nate and Ashley, You guys are the bomb. 
I am loved!

And if your wondering how old I am now... I'm 26...
I'm not shy
