Fitting Real Foods into the Budget + Round Up

Winter Snow Sensory Bin
It is -43C today with the windchill in these parts. We do try to get outside in most weather, but I think we’ll be having a snow day today.

Christmas Moments

Simply Healthy Fudge
This is some seriously simple fudge! With some nourishing ingredients, and no added sugars, I’m thinking it is going to make an appearance several times in 2014! We made this our official December recipe for our 10 year old’s baking program, which means we *had* to make it three times. Ahem. We decided to make… Continue reading Simply Healthy Fudge
