Caramel or Almond Butter Candy Cups

Uh wha??? Candy!?! Yep, that’s right. Just in time to make a little treat for your sweetie for valentines day. I was so thrilled how these turned out and how “official candy looking” they look!

That would probably be the case with Jude as well if we didn’t role model for him. And don’t get me wrong, Jude loves his fair share of the toxic stuff (that’s what we call it around here) but he loves his kale too. I believe that those little eyes are always watching you and so the best way to show your child how to eat is by making […]
