DIY Fruit Roll Ups


If you and your kiddos are anything like us, you've got a mean sweet tooth but as a mom, I cringe every time my son asks for a snack. Most of the snacks today are way overloaded with sugar, preservatives and oils and that's just not something I want to put into my child's little body if I can help it. One of our current favorites have been fruit roll ups, but again....way too much sugar for one little snack, so I thought, "why can't I just make these myself?!"...and I did! And you can too! Try these DIY Fruit Roll Ups with none of the preservatives, GMOs, artificial flavors or colors that could harm your little ones.

Homemade Shrimp (yum yum) Sauce


  • So we're pretty basic in this house, we love pumpkin everything, fall is our favorite and we eat Asian at least three times a month. As much as we love Asian food, it can get pretty costly! My favorite part of the meal is the ever so popular shrimp sauce (some know it as yum yum sauce) whatever you call it, we call all agree on one thing, it's delicious! It goes with everything and makes everything that much better! We've recently been trying to save up some and cutting back on family outings is one way we're doing so. But I can't go without my Asian cravings!! Last night I made Chicken Lo Mein from scratch with homemade shrimp sauce to top it off and it was just as good and I didn't have to wear a bra!!
