2021 Habit Tracker to Track Your Daily Goals

November 11, 2020 By Dawn Leave a Comment

Using this 2021 habit tracker calendar can help you meet your daily goals this year. Simply print out your 1-page calendar and mark off each day you meet any daily goal you choose.

A lot of my goals have involve daily habits, like starting my day with water or exercising. That gave me the idea to create my own habit tracker calendar several years ago for the whole year where I can mark off each day that I meet my daily goal.

Creamed Peas Recipe (with New Potatoes)

May 13, 2020 By Dawn Leave a Comment

Growing up, it was a big deal in the spring when we had early peas and new potatoes from our garden. When I got older, my mom taught me how to make creamed peas. Over the years, I have tweaked this creamed peas recipe.

The first batch of creamed peas and new potatoes from our garden each spring was always a celebrated event in my house growing up.

My kids enjoyed eating cereal, and I felt good about adding berries or banana slices to make it healthier. Plus I needed my kids to eat quickly to get ready for school. Serving cereal topped with fresh fruit seemed like the best option with the least hassle. However, I have expanded my ideas about healthy breakfasts.

How to Create a Recipe Binder for Family Recipes

March 18, 2020 By Dawn Leave a Comment

Meal prep and meal planning have become so much easier by organizing all of my family recipes into a family recipe binder. Mine includes a variety of recipes I know my family enjoys, so I’m not scrambling to throw together dinner.

It’s like having my own family cookbook, and every recipe is something my family enjoys and we have the ingredients to prepare.

Preparing more meals at home sounds great, but making that happen regularly is not so easy. Life gets busy and sometimes we simply don’t know where to start.

Maybe you have good intentions but then a  slow internet connection keeps you from finding the online recipe you wanted to make for dinner.

Maybe you have picky eaters who complain about the meals you prepare.

But what if you had a family recipe binder filled with recipes your family loves to eat?
