    I remember trying to get one of my kids off that morning nap. I would put her in her room with some toys thinking maybe she would just play but I would always find her sleeping on the floor!

    Your door basket is so pretty Megan. I love door decor other than a wreath. Also the way you did your potatoes is the way I do my boiled eggs. Bring them to a full rolling boil then turn off the heat and let them set covered for 15 minutes. They will be perfect. Have a wonderful afternoon. ❤

    As I was watching you make your macaroons, I was wondering if Mennonites observe Lent-ie, a period of preparation before Easter with fasting, abstinence from meat on Fridays, prayer, almsgiving.
    I’m a tea drinker. I recently found an herbal tea that is naturally blue and turns purple when you add lemon! I immediately hit Amazon for some clear tea cups so I could really enjoy the color! 😊

    I just started a new hobby too. I bought a French Press coffee maker and a coffee bean grinder. It’s been fun learning how to do it. My husband and I don’t drink the fancy drinks, but I do feel fancy making my French Press every morning.

    Megan, As a former Barista you MAYYY want to buy a temp strip to stick to the side of the milk cup, temp is VERY important in lattes also the tamp is a great idea just DONT press super hard, just a little push let the weight of the tamp help, DONT PACK. it will affect the pull of the shot.

    I have a small espresso machine and learning the technique was super fun. I decided that depending on the caffeine was a bad habit and now only really have a coffee. So I had to get over the need and the coffee cup sayings that I needed it. I'm don't need it, is just fun.

    I have a Nespresso machine it makes single or double shots and does iced coffee quite well, but it does it all from pods. I'm the only coffee drinker in the house, and only drink 1 cup a day, and this is MUCH cheaper than the usual expresso machines! I'm enjoying it greatly.
