Frozen Mimosas: The Ultimate Summer Brunch Drink
Brunch is in season all year. However, I like to think the season resets every spring, somewhere around Easter and Mother’s Day, and then winds down after Christmas and New Year’s. And let’s be honest: brunch just isn’t brunch without a mimosa or another sparkly champagne cocktail.

Handmade Mother’s Day Planter Gift from the Grandkids
There’s something incredibly special about a handmade gift, especially when it comes from your grandkids. My mom has always cherished thoughtful crafts made by me (haha) and now the little ones, so every Mother’s Day, I rally the kids to create something from the heart. One of our favorite projects to date was a handmade planter for Grammy. This planter is decorated with each grandchild’s…
Brian's Book Club: April 2025
Welcome to my book club for busy millennial parents (and anyone who’s looking for their next book). Reading has always been my escape; it’s the original binge mode. I grew up tearing through Goosebumps, re-reading The Twenty-One Balloons, and lining up at Barnes & Noble for the next Harry Potter release. I still remember staying up all night with Half-Blood Prince, crying at the end and loving…
Mother's Day Handprint Flower Pot Craft: A Sweet DIY Gift
Mother’s Day is around the corner, and if you’re anything like me, you want to help your little ones create something heartfelt for the incredible moms in their lives. We’re making a handprint flower pot craft. This is a fun, colorful, and (mostly) mess-free DIY project that doubles as a keepsake. Trust me, it’s a guaranteed win for moms, grandmas, and aunts alike. Lilies and Loafers has…
The Best Mess-Free Easter Egg Craft for Kids – No Dye, No Stress!
Not sure if you’re planning to decorate Easter Rocks this year due to egg prices and shortages (womp womp), but here’s an alternative craft my kids loved. With Easter a skip, hop and a jump away, I’ve been trying to do some Easter crafts with the kids. If you’ve ever dealt with egg dye spills, sticky fingers, and cracked shells, you know that traditional egg decorating can be a bit of a…
Stainless Steel Kids Dinnerware: Ahimsa Brand Review
A review of Ahimsa’s stainless steel kids dinnerware. Let’s be real, plastic dinnerware for kids is out. We’ve all seen the headlines about microplastics, BPA, and other chemicals that could be sneaking into our children’s food. And while silicone is an option, have your kids ever noticed that weird soapy aftertaste? Yeah, no thanks. Ahimsa’s stainless steel dinnerware is a…
Wicked Emerald City LEGO Set Review
You do not need to twist my arm to buy a LEGO set. So when the Wicked Emerald City 75684 LEGO set launched, I didn’t think twice about it. I grew up building LEGO sets …and today, I get to collect and build with my kids. A few months ago I released my video build and review of this LEGO set. An official trailer for the Wicked movie was released mid-May of this year. Just 14 days later, LEGO…
Our Favorite Toys As Seen on Liam's Train Time
On Liam’s Train Time, we get to play with some really cool toys. From BRIO to Thomas and Friends, to Disney’s Cars, Papa’s model trains, and even our giant playhouse. Well, to be clear, the model trains aren’t really toys! We often get messages from parents asking where to find the best wooden train sets, tracks, and accessories. So, we decided to put together this ultimate guide featuring our…

Celebrating 10,000+ Subscribers on Liam's Train Time!
When Liam and I started Liam’s Train Time a year and a half ago, I did not expect it go anywhere (as it was meant to be a creative ‘just-for-fun’ channel). Today, we have over 6 million views! By the time, we went to celebrate our 10k subscriber milestone, we were well over 13k subscribers. If you’re not familiar with Liam’s Train Time, it’s a family-friendly YouTube channel to show off Liam’s…

Revisiting our Wedding a Decade Later
In just seven weeks, Fatima and I will be celebrating our 10th Wedding Anniversary! It is absolutely WILD to think we will be hitting this milestone. So much as happened in these last ten years, yet there's so much more to do. Over these next 7 weeks, we're dropping a new blog post to look back at the good, the great, and all the details. The first one will drop next week!
In just seven weeks, Fatima and I will be celebrating our 10th Wedding Anniversary! It is absolutely WILD to think we will be hitting this milestone. So much as happened in these last ten years, yet there’s so much more to do. One of the best things to happen since we’ve been married, has been starting our family. Fatima and I wanted to revisit our wedding: the good, the great, and all the…
Copycat Frontega Chicken Sandwich
Let’s talk about eff-me bread. It’s what I call Trader Joe’s focaccia bread. If you haven’t had Trader Joe’s focaccia bread, you need to try it. Bread makes a sandwich and the combination of everything in between makes a delicious meal, but this bread makes this Frontega chicken sandwich. “Eff-me,” is the phrase that exits my mouth after taking a bite of this focaccia bread. Fatima made this…

Miso Glazed Salmon with Cashew Dressing
If you tried the salmon quinoa salad then you’ll love this miso glazed salmon with spicy cashew dressing. This recipe is a mix of a bunch of different recipes we mashed to make our own. We’ve been experimenting with rice bowls and making sure to include salmon more often in our diet. One of my favorite bowls so far has been this blackened salmon and corn salsa rice bowl. Lilies and Loafers has…
Salted Caramel Donuts
What’s better than waking up to coffee and donuts? HOMEMADE donuts! These salted caramel donuts combine some of the holiday’s go-to flavors like chocolate and caramel, but they’re also sweet and salty. They almost remind me of Starbuck’s salted caramel cake pops… These are not that difficult to make, but they do take a long time – especially if you have one donut pan. I was craving a donut…
DIY Minions Card Craft for Dads
In this house, we love the Minions. Despicable Me 1-3, Minions spinoffs, and I’m sure Despicable Me 4 will be another favorite. However, the only person I can think of is a bigger fan than my kids is their Papa (my dad). So when we were thinking about a gift for Father’s Day, my kids wanted to make something. So we made this hand/footprint Minions card craft. Liam recently said Despicable Me 3 is…

Liam's Sixth Birthday
Earlier this year, Liam went to see a local stage production of The Rainbow Fish with his class. He could not stop talking about how fun it was and how he wanted to see more live shows. The theater kid inside of me LOVED this and I was thrilled to help feed this curiosity. So when we were thinking about Liam’s sixth birthday, Fatima and I thought it would be great to bring him to see The Lion…

Summer Fun Bucket Gift Guide
I love celebrating the everyday moments. I think I inherited that from my parents. Whether it was our 6th birthday or 21st, we always had a party. At the end of the school year, we’d celebrate with a trip to the toy store (I’d usually pick out something from LEGO). Aced an exam? Let’s celebrate. Got that lead role in a school play? A trip to Dairy Queen! Now, I’m finding every moment to celebrate…
