Change is a comin’!

Red, White & Blue Fruit Pizza
Who’s ready to get patriotic?!First, I owe you all an apology. I have not been posting as many new recipes as I would like. Our family got into a good groove of making, enjoying, and eating all of the easy and yummy recipes I have posted so far, that I haven’t felt...

5 years. That’s how long it’s been since I last set foot in my 2nd most favorite place of all time. That’s far too long, in my opinion. But tomorrow is the day. Tomorrow, I fly. Montana, here I come! Just me. I’m flying solo, as they say… And I honestly...About Brenna
Hi! I’m Brenna! I’m the Crunchy Mama who runs this joint along with my über talented (and bearded) hubby, Mountain Man. We have 3 kiddos (J-Man – 9, The Nugget – 7, and Little Miss T – 6).

Take a look around, and let’s chat about food, oils, Jesus, homeschool, or really anything to do with kids, FRIENDS (yes, the best show on the face of the Earth), or life!
