Streamlining My Mornings

Therefore, I need to do a few things ahead of time to streamline my morning to make it run smoothly. I am going to share some of my tips and tricks with you for what I do everyday or week to make our lives run smoothly in the morning.

How to Feel Your Best During the Holidays

This post was sponsored by Nature Made ®   as a part of an Ambassador Program for Influence Central. Maybe this post is a little early but I know that Canadian Thanksgiving is right around the corner followed by Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's. They will be here before you know and I can't wait!

I'm here to give you my best tips for feeling your best all through the holidays.

Swiss Apple Chicken Casserole

Swiss Apple Chicken Casserole

Swiss Apple Chicken Casserole is simple to make and loaded with creamy Swiss cheese, fresh apples, butternut squash and celery for a hearty and delicious family meal! We were recently up at my parent's farm in the Thumb of Michigan for the weekend and it was so exciting to see all of the apples getting ready to be picked soon (early September). There were a few ground fall apples ready (when they fall on the ground, they are still good usually and tend to be riper than the ones on the trees). My 2 year old daughter and I had a blast going around and trying each kind of apple. She is fruit crazy like I am and we could not get enough of it.
