The Best Carmelitas Recipe featured by Utah lifestyle blog, By Jen Rose

Have you ever had carmelitas before?

4th of July Meltaway Cookies

I love meltaway cookies! Not just because they are so yummy, but because they are perfect to have at parties. They are small, easy to grab finger foods. The kids can grab these ones, pop them in their mouths and run away without making a huge mess. The only downfall is that because they are so small, you can easily eat more than you were…

Delicious Copycat Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls

I love the Saturday mornings that we can wake up, have a lazy start, and make homemade Cinnamon Rolls. Especially when I use this recipe and my kids can 100% help out in the kitchen. They love it and I love it. This recipe is similar to Cinnabon’s Cinnamon Rolls & who doesn’t love Cinnabon?! I couldn’t resist posting this perfect bedhead. She seriously wakes…

Who knew the snow would still be here in March?! T Who knew the snow would still be here in March?! The kids still are excited to get lots of ski time, which has meant me grabbing dinner and running it up to them before calling it a night. We love @jerseymikes because we can all find something we love & customize it! Some of the favorites are the Philly Cheesesteak, Turkey & Provolone, Chicken Bacon & Ranch, & a Turkey & Provolone bowl. The month of March is Jersey Mikeā€™s Month of Giving, where all are invited to order in-store or through the app for pick up or delivery from your local Jersey Mikeā€™s & make a donation to the designated charity partner. I remember volunteering as a youth to work Special Olympics events and those days were incredible. It's so easy to round up your purchase and/or donate $1, $3, or $5 in the Jersey Mikeā€™s app. #jerseymikes #jerseymikespartner
You will teach them to fly, but they will not fly You will teach them to fly, but they will not fly your flight. You will teach them to dream, but they will not dream your dream. You will teach them to live, but they will not live your life. Nevertheless, in every flight, in every life, in every dream, the print of the way you taught them will remain. ā€“ Mother Teresa . Itā€™s ok to be kind and fierce. Itā€™s ok to be feisty and soft. Itā€™s ok to dream, fail and succeed over and over again. Protect your peace and donā€™t let anyone dim your light. To the girls this reaches, you got this, keep pushing & keep putting one foot in front of the other. And to my own 2 beauties, I am the luckiest and believe in you more than you can believe. .

There couldnā€™t have been a more perfect audio fo There couldnā€™t have been a more perfect audio for today. Happy Birthday to my sweet sister. I couldnā€™t imagine life without you and while Iā€™ve always needed my hand held, these last 9 months without our dad would have been impossible without her. This road of trying to figure out ā€œnow what?ā€ is much more bearable with her driving it with me. Sheā€™s the one who walks out to her garden and picks an entire dinner, knows all The Office lines, is my on call nurse, loves a good party and a classic chick flick. She doesnā€™t take herself too seriously and is the most patient mother. I enjoy that she is so well researched on anything and everything having to do with health, loves being a bee mom, having the style of a coastal grandma, and introducing her very crunchy ways of living to us. There isnā€™t an aspect of my life that she hasnā€™t touched or inspired me to be better at. I hope your trip in Florida has been the dreamiest and canā€™t wait to see if your homemade sunscreen actually worked šŸ’™šŸ„°

Bring Nature Valleyā„¢ bars when I'm the mom in charge of snacks. It feels like a lot of our afternoons are spent by a court or on a field, running from school to practice, or to a game. I always have these on hand. Did you know that 1 in every 8 people face hunger, including nearly 12 million children? I hate to admit I had no idea the number was this staggering & heartbreaking. It touches every community and for the next couple of weeks, I will be stocking up on some of our family favorites on my trips to @walmart , where General Mills is donatingĀ to @feedingamerica . It is simple and small, but can make a difference. For every participating General Mills product purchased at Walmart between 4/18/22 and 5/15/22, General Mills will donate $0.10 to Feeding AmericaĀ® - enough to help Feeding America secure 1 meal on behalf of its member food banks ā€“ up to a maximum total donation of $1,500,000 in conjunction with this program. See Walmart.com/FightHunger for more information. #fighthungersparkchange #fighthunger @nature_valley http://bit.ly/3xSwFiu
"Each of us will have our own Fridaysā€”those days "Each of us will have our own Fridaysā€”those days when the universe itself seems shattered and the shards of our world lie littered about us in pieces. We all will experience those broken times when it seems we can never be put together again. We will all have our Fridays. But I testify to you in the name of the One who conquered deathā€”Sunday will come. In the darkness of our sorrow, Sunday will come. No matter our desperation, no matter our grief, Sunday will come. In this life or the next, Sunday will come." - Joseph B. Wirthlin . Holding onto hope that our ā€œSundayā€ will come & Iā€™ll get to squeeze his sweet face again. Missing dad on our first Easter without him & holding onto the memories of the amazing Easter egg hunts at my parents house that he loved almost as much as he lived to celebrate his love for Christ.
