  1. the cake turned out beautifully! you totally nailed it. thank you for the love for my s’mores bars, too. =)

  2. Protein and veggie sheet pan or skillet dinners that are quick for weeknights are recipes that would interest me

  3. Love the article about refrigerator organization, but I practically need a whole seperate one just for condiments!!!!
    The boys looked very handsome in their matching ensembles, they are growing so quickly. I always enjoy seeing photos of them both especially your pirate!

  4. My recipe requests would be any soup recipes and anything done in in the slow cooker. Thanks for asking!!

  5. The article about babies / children using IPads is soooo spot on! I don’t have children but even I have noticed a change in parent / child dependency on using iPads or iPhones as a reward. If I have kids I will never let them use iPads or iPhones until they are much more developed.

  6. The smores bars look delicious! I think you did a great job on the pirate cake!  What kind of cake was it? The green salad looks good, too! My kids are older.  They only had screen time on computers.  They had plenty of “real” play time, too.
