DIY Edible Fruit Holiday Birthday Cake Arrangement

DIY Edible Fruit Holiday Birthday Cake Arrangement

Yesterday I turned 35 yep only five more years until I hit the BIG 40! I had a fabulous birthday, my husband and children took me out to one of my favorite sushi restaurants and gave me a ton of beautiful winter clothes. With my birthday smack in the middle of the holiday dessert coma, I decided this year to have a cake that was healthy, but also really yummy. … more

Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie with Streusel Topping

Gluten Free Pumpkin Pie with Streusel Topping

When my son Tristan was a baby we went over to my husband’s professor’s house for their Thanksgiving dinner.  Their home sat on several acres with a barn, a green house, and a couple of ponds.  It was beautiful at their home in the country in North Carolina.  The house was a quaint old two-story home with lots of detail and cracks running up the walls that silently told the… more

Gluten Free Pumpkin Cheesecake Swirl Brownies

Pumpkin Cheesecake Swirl Brownie

I love this time of year and this past week my kids and I took a field trip to a pumpkin farm.  We were with a local group of other homeschoolers and it was fun to see my children so excited about pumpkins.  They had a hay bale maze set up with ladders, and slides I thought I would never get my son out of the maze.  He loves mazes… more

Gluten Free Apple Chunk Cinnamon Muffins

Apple Chunk Cinnamon Muffins

As a mother, one of my goals is to raise fabulous little cooks and bakers so when they leave the nest they can create healthy and delicious meals.  I grew up watching my mom and dad drive through the drive through, but I never learned how to cook.  Cooking and baking is a fun event in my house, and this past week for homeschool I asked my son Tristan if… more

Nutella Chocolate Kiss Acorn Cookies (Gluten Free)

Nutella Chocolate Kiss Acorn Cookie

Can summer really be officially over?  I feel like I should have done more with my kids or gone more places, but then again I am so excited for Fall.  I love this time of year with the cooler temperatures, the color changes in the leaves and all those glorious yummy food to eat and smell. This past week I took my kids to the park for a picnic lunch.… more

Gluten Free Zucchini Bread

Gluten Free Zuchinni Bread

My hubby and I usually plant an enormous garden.  To us it is fun spending hours and hours maintaining the garden, and then canning or freezing everything that grows out of it. I tried to garden this year on my deck, because having a new baby I did not have the time to keep up on the weeding.  Everything started growing fine, but one thing I realized is most of… more

Nutella Banana Sushi

I love bananas and I love sushi!  When I saw this cute banana sushi pin on Pinterest, I got excited, until I clicked through to the recipe and saw they used wheat bread.  We eat gluten free as a family for my son Tristan and gluten free bread does not and would not wrap around a banana like wheat bread does.  I tried to make some banana sushi using rice tortillas,… more

www.Inspired-Housewife.com, Velata Fun Fondue

Today I have something so delicious and mouthwatering to share with you, even my taste buds are fired up as I type.  Do you love chocolate?  I sure do and what better way to eat chocolate than when it is melted and dipable (is that even a word?).  One of my sponsors who is a consultant for Scentsy, and also now for Scentsy’s new product line Velata, sent a fondue warmer to me that is… more

Quinoa Coconut Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookies

Quinoa Cookies

I am not a big fan of sweets, but there is nothing I love better than a tall glass of milk and a really chewy, moist, and yummy cookie.  To me the perfect cookie must have chocolate chips and a nice subtle flavor.  The other day my son Tristan asked me to make some cookies, and I love to bake and make fun treats with my kids, so I did.… more

No Sugar Homemade Peach Ice Cream

Homemade No Sugar Peach Ice Cream

Peach season is in full swing here in Maryland and I love it.  Maryland has some of the best peaches I ever tasted.  The peaches are large and oh, so sweet and perfect for homemade ice cream and other wonderful treats.  I am busy canning peaches, and I figured why not make my family some no sugar peach ice cream.  It was simple to do, and the end result was fabulous. Ingredients:… more

Blueberry and Peach Upside Down Breakfast Cake

Inspired-Housewife: Blueberry and Peach Breakfast Cake (Can be Gluten Free)

I love summer because of all the fresh fruit available around where I live.  We have picked fruit at farms or at my hubby’s place of work for the past four weekends.  I have about 20 pounds of blueberries already frozen, 25 quarts of peaches canned, 24 half-pints of plum jam and 21 quarts of canned plums, and 26 half-pints of strawberry jam made as well.  Blackberries are coming on… more

3 Homemade Popsicles – Fresh Fruit, Yogurt, and Blueberry Smoothie

Yogurt, Fresh Fruit, Blueberry Smoothie Frozen Popsicles

I love being a mom and having kids for a number of reasons.   The hugs, kisses, and cuddles are a treat.   I get to make fun crafts and play outside with the water table and in our homemade sprinkler.  What I love most about having kids is creating fun, colorful and delicious healthy snacks.   As a child I loved popsicles, but most popsicles are full of colors,… more

Almond Cherry Crisp – Gluten Free

Almond Cherry Crisp

This past weekend I noticed the cherries on my one cherry tree were ready for picking. The cherries were a beautiful bright red and the flavor a perfect blend of sweet and sour. I picked cherries as I watched my children swing and slide on their play set. It was a beautiful day and one I will not forget because as I picked my last bowl full of cherries the… more

Roofing Nightmares and Strawberry Shortcake

Gluten Free Strawberry Shortcake

My husband and I were newly weds when we purchased our first home a quaint  little ranch with a lot of old charm nestled in the beautiful State of Maine.  This house was in dire need of some TLC and we were the couple to do it.  We both were newbies when it came to home improvement, but we would work hard and figure it all out along the way.… more

Muddy Play Date and Raw Gluten Free Energy Balls

Raw Energy Balls

This past February my kids and I went to a play date with lots of other mama’s and their kiddos.  The play date started inside with kids playing with musical instruments, dolls, and blocks.  The hostess made delicious fruit and veggie smoothies for all of us to drink and other mom’s brought snacks.  Seasonally, it was an unusually warm morning with temperatures already into the high 60′s.  We collectively rounded up… more
