Thank you for your support. If you're like me you love fresh salsa. But it can be intimidating to know how much of everything needs to go in it. You don't want it too tomatoey or too spicy (unless you like that). So I experimented and came up with this recipe. It has been a favorite everytime I share it with others. It's for sure a game changer and you will love it. My recipe is based on the delicious fresh salsa my mom would make us growing up. And also based on watching my roommate Shirley make amazing salsas in college. She is of Mexican and Guatemalan heritage and always made the most delicious food. I don't claim that mine is authentic or anything like that, I just picked up some ideas from watching her methods. Easy Fresh SalsaI love salsa made from fresh ingredients and I include only one canned ingredient in this recipe: canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. It helps add a smokiness that I think is the key to its addictive flavor. It also is very easy to make because, after charring my veggies, I just chuck everything in the food processor and blend. I hope you give this recipe a try! I'm making some today to share with some people from church and I don't expect to take any home with me. Some other Posts you may enjoy

Easter is next Sunday! Can you believe it? I'm flabbergasted it has come so quickly. I haven't decorated anything for my home yet but I'm not worried because I have been browsing Etsy for all the cutest printable Easter decorations to hang around my home. I have been saving them in lists on our Etsy account. And I've separated them by religious themed and just general cute Easter decorations.
I love printable decorations from Etsy because they're easy for me to print at home and display, and I get to support the artists. Sometimes I print the art at a print shop to get a higher quality print. I also love giving them as gifts or cards to friends and family for birthdays and holidays. These prints would be a great way to share joy with those around you. And the Etsy list feature makes it easy to save the prints you have an eye on and buy when the time is right. Religious Themed Printable Easter Decorations
I am Christian so Easter is a very special holiday for me. So finding art that reflects my beliefs is important to me. Thankfully Etsy creators haven't let me down and I was able to find really beautiful printable religious Easter decorations. Check out our favorites list on Etsy to find one you'll love too.
I especially loved this print by AnnieLinnArt of the view from the tomb after Christ was resurrected. I love how it kind of looks like stained glass and it really brings me so much joy.
I love the classic look of this beautiful scripture from Shop Modern Printables.
This set of printables from OMySoulDesign is so sweet. I love the pictures with the scriptures.
General Printable Easter Decorations
If you're feeling like you need some more bunnies in your life this Easter, I have found the sweetest printable Easter decorations on Etsy. I love the colors and sights associated with Easter and so I've saved printable decorations that celebrate that and saved them to a favorites list!
I really love this blue and white rabbit from HostClubCo. It's stunning and I'd probably keep it up all year round to be honest.
I love the muted tones used in this printable decoration from Eclectic Printables. They also have a version in watercolor.
This bunny in a wreath from SweetLittleOnesShop makes me smile everytime I see it.

Happy Easter!

You may know already, but March is Women's History Month, so we couldn't let it pass without celebrating! We're doing this by putting a new item in our shop on Etsy! Women's History Coloring PagesI'm so excited to share these coloring pages with you. I have been working on them since December or January and learning about the 9 women (it was hard to narrow down!) we chose was so inspiring and interesting. And I have to say at times their stories made me so sad too (especially Sacagawea's!). The women we chose for this pack were:
It was so hard narrowing down our list of women who have inspired us throughout history to be better versions of ourselves. But I think our little pack is a great start! Each coloring page includes an image of the woman, their name, a quote from them (except Sacagawea) and a short biography about them. The poster is easily printed at home as it's formatted to be printed at 8.5"x11". They're digital downloads so as soon as you purchase the poster pack they're available to you! Click the button below to take you to our Etsy page so you can buy your own set! I'm so excited to use these to teach my kids about these incredible women. Not just in March, but throughout the whole year. I know my kids are excited too because when I printed off my test copies they wanted to color them right away. And I just got them Crayola Colors of the World pencils and markers that include 24 different shades for coloring skin. This makes even me excite to color the pages too!
I hope you can enjoy these posters with your family and friends too! Who are some more women in history that you love learning about (and would like a poster of)?

That's right we're bringing back the podcast! We're so excited to be doing this again and chatting about our favorite movie adaptations of some of our favorite books!
Since it's Women's History Month we decided to start with a work of literature by one of the most famous women in literary history, Jane Austen! We chose to do a comparison of Jane's Emma and Amy Heckerling's "Clueless." That's right, if you didn't know "Clueless" is actually a modern day retelling of Ms Austen's Emma. And we love it. So listen in as Lindsey and I discuss how "Clueless" aligns with Emma and why we think books are made into movies in the first place. If you'd rather read our discussion I'll post the transcription below! |
