Creating a Homegrown and Homemade Life
Christmas comes with lots of shopping and long to-do lists. Remember to slow down and make memories with your kids this year. Spend a cold afternoon in the kitchen making homemade cinnamon ornaments for the grandparents. Perhaps it could become a family tradition that you can do with your children and grandchildren. Those are the moments that will matter most.
A loaf of sourdough is sure to be a hit at any holiday gathering, but what about pumpkin shaped sourdough bread? I love to make these pumpkin shaped loaves because they are basically foolproof. Scoring is a skill and takes some practice, but this pumpkin doesn’t require any of that.
Are you looking for the perfect chocolate chip cookies? They aren’t too crispy or too soft. These cookies are absolutely perfect. Plus the dough stores well in the freezer, so you can have some now and some later!
As the weather cools down, the kitchen heats up. Something about the cool air makes me want to get into the kitchen. Having a bowl of warm cheeseburger soup for dinner is perfect on those crisp autumn evenings.
If you are looking for a fun activity to keep the kids busy then try this no-cook playdough recipe. The kids can each pick their own color and even their own scent! Then let their creativity flow while they roll, smash, and cut their creations.
