With the abundance of gluten-free and vegan blogs & recipes out there now, it really gives Passover so many new possibilities. There are still the staples that are my grandmother’s recipes like her harroset and Mayeena or Matzah Brie but new foods definitely can find a place at the cedar don’t you think? Here are a few of my favorites to try…

From the top: Broccoli & Black Bean Salad // frozen Banana Raspberry muffins // potato pancakes with poached eggs

Cucumber Noodles in Peanut Sauce // Whole Grain Matzah

Well I cannot believe I am thinking about Piper’s 3rd birthday! She will turn 3 in June, so it is just around the corner. For her first birthday I had the amazing talents of my dear friend Casey, and owner of The Flouring Artisans. Casey created the most amazing dessert table and delicious sugar-less cake for Piper. The party was bright orange and pinks with giraffes.

For her second birthday Andrea Patricia Photography captured the most amazing photos of the Neon Pink + gold party.

So now, 3. I would love to try and do something a bit less involved…is that possible for me? I am not sure. I would love to hear your thoughts on birthday parties. Do you go over the top every year or just make it once every few years? Piper’s favorite thing right now definitely is Cinderella and the princesses. How can I do that but still make it a bit more casual? Chime in below.. I would love to know your ideas!! Happy Mom Monday.

I am so excited to be planning my edible garden for my backyard. A friend of mine sent me these handy printable plant-a-grams from Williams Sonoma. I love them because I never would have even thought of growing lemongrass, but wow how fun would that be!? The vertical gardens from Williams Sonoma are also a dream come true don’t you think? Love the packaging of these seed bombs. And these Terrain chalkboard markers?! Yes please!

I have a confession to make…I am absolutely obsessed with filling my pantry with glass jars of food and shelves of bistro towels. Has anyone actually ever done this? Am I living in a dream world or is it actually possible for me to have shelves of nothing but beautiful glass jars filled with dried goods? Where do I start? What are the best jars to use? Help!!
