Remember this girl? The one who used to post on her blog regularly about travel, wine, and things to do in the area? She’s back, fam! I skipped a mom nap last weekend and wrote a blog post for the first time in nearly a year about several fun, fall events happening around @discoverdupage, some family friendly, some free, and some wine tastings so please do check it out if you are interested!

It’s only fitting that on my last day of work in an office, my lunch leaked all over my lunchbox.
Thank you to my mom and role model, who started a business over 30 years ago and closed the doors today. I start #WFH on Monday, something I never did one day during the pandemic. Great news I’m still your girl if you need a breast pump, bone growth stimulator, brace, or any orthopedic aftercare! #bonegrowthstimulator #osteogenesis #lactation #breastpumps #insurancecoveredbreastpumps #cfo #coa #abc #orthoticfitter

Had never tried #kohlrabi before but got it in our @angelicorganics bushel this week. I decided to go for #glutenfree #dairyfree fritters for my #11monthold. It was easy and healthy (hello fiber, B6, C, and potassium!) just a little #blwrecipes #babyledweaning that worked for the both of us. #paleokids #veg #vegetarianrecipes. As always, I love @kingarthurbaking Almond Flour in everything that calls for flour.

Kale-Banana-Mango-Pineapple-Coconut Milk-Almond Milk Bowl with Crushed Walnuts and Raspberry Topping
Got our first bushel of produce from @angelicorganics So I made Thomas and myself a smoothie bowl topped with walnuts and fresh picked raspberries from our yard. He loved it, I loved it…next time I’ll probably add flaxseed to increase the protein content. Needless to say, I started work with a splatter of green smoothie on my outfit.
Also, my mom made me an after first day of school smoothie my first day of high school with this @vitamix and it’s still kicking.

Affordable fun alert: $5/parking during the week or $10/weekend to see the Magic of Alebrijes! I highly recommend visiting @cantignypark to see the new #alebrijes exhibit ! So much color and magic with this celebration of #mexicanart . It’s great for the family and at nearly 50 pieces across 500 acres,I found it more manageable than the Arboretum. You definitely can see them all in one day on foot. #discoverdupage #cantingypark #westernsuburbs #mombloggers #travelblogger #familyfun #saveillinois
