Fall is here! With Hannah being born we have had to alter our normal fun a little bit because it is to cold to take her outside at times, but that is not stopping the kids and I from having fun together! One of the things I am having them do more is cook with me. They all love to cook and bake so they are enjoying it! This week we partnered with Target to make this tasty Crunchy Autumn Chicken Salad recipe! We also made Autumn Apple Tea which was a perfect fit to go with our dinner! Of course we have fun making it but then we also have fun eating the recipes we make!

Did she know it was an onion soup base? We have a son that loves everything we make with onion flavor in it, but he “hates” onions. Kids are funny.
