Cold Brew Coffee with Healthy Treats

By
Hello!

This summer weather we are having is awesome. Enjoying the opportunities to get outside, be active, and enjoy some hot weather refreshments! I was recently introduced to cold brew coffee. Life. Changing. It’s no secret that I love drinking coffee and other than the fact that we like to mix some flavoured beans in with dark roast and always grind the beans fresh, I am fairly boring with my black coffee! I have tried cooling hot brew coffee in the fridge, but never find it as refreshing as I hope. This ColdBrew Coffee recipe, from Gimme Some Oven, was so easy and flavourful! I used my French press and delicious dark beans from Costa Rica.



I also love finding new healthy “treat” recipes. Quick and on-the-go snacks for any time of day and that are Little-approved! These Almond Joy Snack Bars from One Lovely Life taste like heaven and are so satisfying straight out of the freezer! I used more coconut than the recipe called for and swapped almond extract for coconut extract.


Enjoy!

Adventuring with Onya

By
“I have loved her, my little wanderer, with a mind full of wild forests and eyes that await adventures.” - Conny Cernik As an active mom, my girls have both spent a lot of time in a baby carrier. With our first daughter, Brooke (now three years old), we used a soft structured carrier (SSC) often for neighborhood walks, grocery shopping, adventures in the mountains, airplanes, and occasionally tasks around the house. When Mikah (now 10 months old) came along, the carrier became an extremely important part of my life! With a busy toddler to play with, snacks and meals to prepare, a house to [attempt to] keep clean and tidy, and a Little who wanted lots of snuggles (as newborns should!) “baby wearing” as it is called became part of my daily life. I am fortunate to have two girls who enjoy being “worn”, as it makes “mom life” easier with access to both hands and also makes adventuring a ton of fun! Finding a baby carrier that works for your body and that is equally comfor...
