I know, I know. I JUST posted a couple of patio drinks last week and was excited about the warm weather.  But in our house, soup is a year round meal....especially tomato. I've posted my roasted tomato and pepper soup before,  but this one is a bit different!  Since the twins will be on summer break soon, I'm stocking up the freezer with bread, muffins and soup. Mmm, mmm!

Summertime Patio Drinks: Oberon Chelada + Skinny Paloma

I think I can safely say that we have hit the point in the year where there will be NO MORE SNOW here in Michigan (....until October-ish, that is).  YAY!  I love spending my days soaking up that Vitamin D that we've all been so deprived of.

Door to Door Organics: Week One {UnBoxing Video} #JoyDelivered

Disclaimer: I have partnered with Door to Door organics for a review.  All opinions are my own and I promise to give my honest opinion.

This month, we are trying out Door to Door Organics.  If you're unfamiliar, they deliver organic food (fresh produce, dairy and more!) right to your front door.  I was first on board for the convenience...plus we love to try out new foods!

I know a lot of people are interested in these deliveries, but aren't sure if it can fit in their budget. This month is a somewhat of an experiment to see if it fits in OUR budget and I'm set to give you honest feedback!

Healthy Snack: Banana Cocoa Muffins

Last night, it was actually cool enough to bake.  We have super high ceilings and even with the air on, our house gets like 80 degrees with the oven on.  So frustrating in the warmer months! Something about a rainy day makes me want to cook and bake...I always make soup and bread.

Why I'm Getting Rid of My New Keurig 2.0 {Giveaway} #FlexBrew

Disclaimer: I am a Hamilton Beach blogger and the FlexBrew coffee maker was given to me to review. All opinions are my own and I am not compensated for a positive review of the product.  I keep it real, y'all!

When I first heard about the Keurig 2.0, I was SO excited.  It's the best of both worlds-- sometimes I love a pot of coffee instead of a single cup. Having three little ones, coffee is a necessity to make it through the morning.  I am SO not a morning person!!  When the box arrived, it was shiny and beautiful.

Celebrate Mother's Day with March of Dimes! #ImBornTo

Disclaimer: I have partnered with 38 other bloggers to be part of the #MoDSquad to help spread the word about March of Dimes #ImBornTo campaign. 

Did you know that March of Dimes has been around for over 75 years?  Their organization helps fund research and programs to help babies begin healthy lives.  Because of March of Dimes, there is no longer Polio and they hope that one day, all babies will be born healthy.  Did you know that every minute, one baby is born prematurely?  

Grand Rapids Fun: Kentwood Farmer's Market!

Last month I was SO excited to see a sign at the library about a Kentwood farmer's market this summer.  Yes, we have the amazing Fulton Street market downtown--I love it, but it's not always convenient.

I've been bugging people digging around for more information and I have a few facts:

• It will take place in the KDL Kentwood Parking lot on Saturday 9:00a-1:00p
• Starts June 13 and runs until October 10
• There will be about 10 vendors and 2 food trucks
• Family centric activities and entertainment will be planned

I'm hoping to see any of my local friends out there and meet new people in the area!  We will be walking with our wagon every chance we get.  This will be a perfect opportunity to check out new books and movies for the week, too.  Did you see my library card lanyard craft?
