A few weeks ago, a friend at school was warming up part of her lunch, and pretty soon the whole teacher’s room smelled like delicious cinnamon and apples! Her son made this healthy dessert for their family, and she was fortunate enough to have leftovers to bring to school and waft under our noses! I asked for her recipe so…
For the past few years, my husband and I have taken a weekend trip with some of our friends in the spring.

One of my favorite coffee drinks is a peppermint mocha. And, in my opinion, Starbucks has the best peppermint mochas! Anyone have other favorite peppermint mochas? I have a really good mocha chocolate chip cookie recipe, and I wanted to add a peppermint twist to it! To be fair, these don’t taste exactly like a Starbucks peppermint mocha, but it…
**This post contains affiliate links. Please refer to our Disclosure Policy for details.** I am not always faithful about running my essential oil diffuser. But when I do get it started, I love the way it makes our sunroom smell! (We call it a sunroom, but it’s really a sitting room in the back of the house that the former…
