Orange creamsicle has been a popular flavor in my home for many years!  The boys couldn’t wait for our local ice cream shop to open in the spring so they could get their first larger-than-life orange & white swirly cone of the season!  But just because summer has gone doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy this wonderful flavor.  It’s not only delicious but the color is perfect for the holiday!  And because it’s been a flavor that brings back so many memories, it’s extra special to find new ways to serve it up for an autumn surprise!  Today I’m sharing how I incorporated this family favorite into some unexpected holiday treats!  Let’s dish up the citrus-inpsired fun…

Campfire Popcorn!

Campfire popcorn…sounds fun doesn’t it?  Whether you love to camp, glamp, or just pretend in the backyard, adding popcorn to the mix enhances the adventure!  When my boys were little we used to have plenty of backyard “camping trips”…however, I’m not sure anyone ever lasted in the tent all night!  We don’t pitch the tent outside anymore but we do enjoy many evenings by the fire pit and recently had a blast popping corn right over the flames!  There’s something exciting and a little nostalgic about cooking over a campfire.  It can bring back those memories of long summer nights and simple fun!  So today I’m really excited to partner with Grand Rapids Popcorn to share this joyful way to spend a summer evening under the stars and moon with family and friends!  Get the fire roaring…and see how much fun campfire popcorn can be!

Super Bowl Sunday is just days away and it happens to be one of my family’s most awaited game nights…for the good food, football fun…and the commercials of course!  Each year we whip up a big batch of wings and nestle in for a warm & cozy evening in!  Sometimes it’s just us, sometimes we include friends…but either way, we celebrate a festive evening of heart-pounding fun! (even though my youngest is really the only TRUE sports enthusiast in the family!)   Shortly before kickoff I set up a cheerful spread of traditional game day goodies…but this year I’m adding a good dose of healthy to the table!  And even though the boys in the house will require some wings on the menu, I’m really excited to share these healthier options that will be a definite win!

super healthy super bowl fun!

Setting up a hot cocoa stand is something that I try to do as soon as the weather turns chilly!  But there’s something about Christmastime that makes serving up the toasty drink even more special and festive! Even though we’re in the northern part of the country, we still get a day or two in December where we can light up the fire pit and serve up treats outdoors! There’s something fun about bundling up and braving the chill with a hot cocoa in hand and good company around!  See how easy it can be to set up a simple treat to celebrate the season with family & friends!   Baby it’s cold outside…so serve up something chocolatey AND warm!

We’re in the midst of football season and I think it’s fair to say most of us put out some game day snacks whether we’re diehard fans or just casual watchers!  You can love football or even hate it…but there’s lots of fun associated with the game no matter how you slice it or dice it…meaning, a tailgate celebration or yummy themed snacks can delight even the non-sport enthusiast!  I say all the time how much I adore easy snack ideas…it’s my belief that if you keep it simple, you’ll be more likely to actually serve up a special treat!  So today, in partnership with Grand Rapids Popcorn, I’d like to share a SUPER easy treat table for a football afternoon…whether you have 3 or 33 guests, these snacks are so easy you could effortlessly delight a crowd! The countdown is on for this weekend’s pig skin parties…so get ready to score an easy dessert-time win!
