HAPPY MOTHERS’ DAY!

Happy Mothers’ Day to all you Mamas! There are many days when our role is beyond exhausting and we need to take a beat to lock ourselves in the pantry to sneak some sweet snacks for fuel. But on this day, I hope it was somewhat relaxing and you are reminded of all the joyful times from being a Mom. Now prepare yourself for some sappiness. That’s right. It’s my day and I’ll be sappy if I want to!…

OUR ITALIAN EASTER

Sure hope you’re not sick of Easter-related posts quite yet. Because I have one more for you this year! We drove up to Omaha to spend the holiday weekend with my Grandparents. My Gramps is a full-blooded Italian and my Gram is half Italian, half Czech. (She wouldn’t want me to forget mentioning the Czech part!) They always have more than enough for us to eat– my favorite being their homemade meatballs, Italian sausage, and spaghetti; but I wanted to cook something for them. I found a recipe for Italian Easter Bread and it’s just too good not to share!
