Last night I came up with the easiest and most yummy blueberry almond “bread”. It could also be used to make muffins I think. I basically took a yellow cake mix, added a cup of water,one 8 ounce container of 0% fat Greek yogurt, and one tablespoon of almond extract which I think makes most […]

Just got my new House Beautiful magazine in the mail. I am loving everything about the rooms in this ad.

… or at least it hit the spot this morning! So simple, yet so delicious. Toasted French bread, nutella, fresh sliced strawberries, and a sprinkle of powdered sugar. That’s all you need for a sugary, chocolately, crunchy breakfast delight. Now go make one for yourself. It is great for dessert or a midnight snack too!

For the next two weeks my bags are going to be displayed in the windows of Parts and Labour in Downtown Austin. But part of having my bags there was that I had to come up and execute the display. I decided to make use of things I already had on hand and spray painted […]

It has been raining here for quite a while which has given me a nice break from having to go out a water myself. This week two of my melons ripened, the orange one is a regular cantaloupe, and the green one is a rocky green ford. Last year I got 15 or do melons, […]

Sorry for the absence of posts this last week. My best friend came into town with her two girls and we have been busy! We went to Zilker park on Monday and played at the playground, rode the train that goes around the park, and had snow cones. Then we had dinner one of my […]

The today show called and they are going to feature my iPad cases tomorrow morning 7/13. I think it will be during the 8am est/7am cst segment. I hope I catch them on there! http://www.kailochic.com/ipad-cases-and-laptop-sleeves/ *EDIT* – The segment got bumped to a future episode. Lets hope they end up airing it!

I was just looking through old photos and I found this one of the cake I made my SIL for her birthday last year. I used the Wilton Nature Fondant mold to make all the decorations and then used royal icing to stick them to the fondant covered cake. It was super simple to do […]

Tonight for dinner I made a healthy Mexican salad with ranch dressing. I am sure that it would have been much better with some creamy jalapeño ranch dressing, but I was too lazy to make that, so I just went with the bottled stuff I had in the fridge. Come to think of it a […]

This weekend I made some yummy powdered sugar and cinnamon sugar beignets, scrambled eggs, and fruit salad. It was yummy! Then Madeline and I proceeded to make a play-doh “breakfast” of waffles with butter, bacon, eggs, and fruit salad. Is it just me or does the playdoh breakfast look yummy?

The other day when I went to Whole Foods, I saw these awesome cinder block planters. I definitely see these in my backyard gardens future. They don’t look that difficult to make, I just have figure out where to put them!

Have I told you lately how hot it is here in central Texas right now? No? Well let’s just say it has been close to 110 degrees. In my house that means a lot of Popsicle eating. And while I love snow cones and regular old Popsicles, I would much rather something healthy going into […]
