Instant Pot Egg Bites

Tiffany MOM, They Need To Eat, Uncategorized breakfast, egg bites, instant pot 18 Comments

I have the worst sweet tooth in the morning. My go-to breakfast is usually something sugar-based such as a donut, coffee cake, muffin, waffles, french toast…..yum! There are also times that savory is the way I want to start my day and my weakness is egg-bites. At almost five bucks a pop for this on-the-go breakfast, I don’t indulge very often. Then I realized I could make these at home…

Sunshine Award

Tiffany Creative Side, Girls Only award, bloggers, sunshine 1 Comment

Blogging can be a handful of things. Fun pastime. Side hustle. Adventure documentation. An unexpected side effect of blogging are the people and relationships you create in the blogging world. Sometimes bloggers wonder if anyone is looking at their site (yeah, the stats say so, but who are these people?) and then a little gem of an award pops up on your timeline and makes your day.

Tiffany Everyday Adventures, MEMORIES chevy, chicago auto show, explorer, van 31 Comments

Next month it will be ten (that’s right TEN) years since we purchased our full size Explorer conversion van. While that might be normal for you, I happen to love shopping for new vehicles so the fact I have been driving the same van for a decade is something for me to talk about.

After our adventures in England, we were determined to meet again and have an afternoon of tea, scones, clotted cream, and little sandwiches. What better time to do this is for an afternoon at the movies seeing Downton Abbey!

Could you imagine packing for a ten-day trip with NO idea of where you were going or where you were staying? What would you do if you had to plan for not one, not two but three different locations?!?

KonMari Adventure: Tackling My Closet

Tiffany MOM, Organized Mom closet, konmari, organize 33 Comments

I’m not going to claim I had a hideous closet and couldn’t find the clothes packed inside. What I do know is I have the worst time getting rid of something I do not wear. You just *never* know when you *might* need that black blouse or multicolored sweater last worn a decade ago. Besides, it’s in great condition! Like new! Ugh, does this sound like you? If so, you need to do what I did – take back control and tackle your closet and dresser using the KonMari method.

With summer fast approaching, we started to take a peek at the plans for the summer. College visits? Check. Swim team? Check. Driver’s Ed? Check. Hockey Camp? Check. Band Camp? Check. Just when I thought I was done with our list, Owen yells “DON’T FORGET ABOUT HEART CAMP!!!!”. Needless to say – he is excited to attend Camp Odayin for a third summer.

Mystery Trip: Destination Revealed

Tiffany MEMORIES, See The World england, london, mystery trip 32 Comments

After months of wondering, worrying, planning and packing the big day had finally arrived. Waking up early at 5:30 am, a few last minute packing adjustments and then the drive to O’Hare we were fiat the moment of truth. I have to say, walking into O’Hare with your suitcase and absolutely no idea where you are going is an odd feeling. But one white envelope held all the answers….now all we had to do was open it up.

Mystery Trip: Destination Unknown – Part Three (More Sleeps!)

Tiffany MEMORIES, See The World mystery, unknown, vacation 6 Comments

The packing has begun. I have no idea what to pack, but at least I have started collecting almost anything I may or may not need for the trip. Notebook. Meds. Headphones. Camera. Snacks. The only thing I cannot decide on is if I will bring my laptop on my trip. Decisions. Decisions. Decisions. I only have three more sleeps to decide!
