Hi there!

I'm Tabitha Blue

I’m a digital content creator, big-family chaos master, all-day-coffee-sipper, drill-using-paint color dreaming home renovator, gourmet grilled cheese master, frequent-flyer, overachiever, lipstick-lover, salty air and sea celebrater, mama of multiples, and hopefully, your new friend!

Whew, that’s a lot of hats to wear, right?! I’m willing to bet you wear a lot too.

I call it multi-passionate and my goal is to help YOU achieve your dreams, not in spite of the many hats we wear, but because you want to be the best YOU, the you that takes steps towards your dreams, even if they are many. I’m here to say that you CAN do the multiple things that make you come alive (Just maybe not all at the same time… I mean I have tried to sip coffee while taking-off in flight and it wasn’t pretty)!

So, grab your favorite drink, and let’s dream, talk, laugh, cook, do all the things!

In the Kitchen with Tabitha Blue

We believe that kids have a place in the kitchen and in the sanctity of the family table. Sometimes it’s chaos and sometimes it’s beautiful (and most often it’s both, one-and-the-same).
If you're like me, you are looking for easy meals that the entire family will like… and when you have a big family, that can be a task sometimes! Click here for our family favorite waffle recipe: https://freshmommyblog.com/easy-waffle-recipe-breakfast-for-dinner-family-night/ It's a bonus if we can think of something fun, but the thought of coming up with something creative and new can be overwhelming. Ready for a foolproof idea we like to add to our regular meal plan rotation? Breakfast for dinner! Waffle boards look trendy and enticing, but when it comes to breakfast for dinner you don’t have to reinvent the wheel. Best of all, you can make this a family night by cooking WITH your children. We stocked up recently on all of our fresh favorites from BJs.com (me and Aliyah are obsessed with their #WellsleyFarms Swiss Granola and always have to keep it stocked in our pantry). Yogurt, fruits and granola, muffins, waffles, organic syrup AND hazelnut spread make for the PERFECT breakfast for dinner, breakfast, brunch or even celebration of national waffle day in a fun waffle board. Want to add meat? Heat some chicken tenders to create an enticing chicken and waffle board. SO good, you guys, so good. Listen, I get it. As a big family, we go through A LOT of food every day, AND we like to have a plan in place where everyone enjoys each meal and ends with a full belly. The reason I love #BJsWholesaleClub for our grocery shopping needs is because of convenience and value. We’re in the habit now of cooking at home more than ever, so saving money on grocery items is huge for us because there are so many hungry bellies and so many meals each week. That value is HUGE for us!

In our multiple years of feeding multiple kiddos, I’ve found a few tricks that make everything “taste better.” Adding a dipping sauce, placing food on skewers, or rolling it up “sushi-style” are all great ways to get little ones to eat what you’re serving, or at least try it! Lately, I’ve been craving salad, especially when I add in ALL. THE. FETA. I grabbed some while I was at #bjswholesale the other day on our monthly “stock-up” trip and decided a creamy and bright Greek Vinaigrette would be the perfect addition. And since I wanted my kids to eat it up with me, it always helps to get them involved in the kitchen duties, too! Save this post for later, because I promise you’re going to want to try it. Skewers or not, it’s a good one. For the Croutons: Cut baguette bread into cubes and place in a hot skillet with #WellsleyFarms Olive Oil until browned. ✨Greek Salad Skewers: Romaine Lettuce Cherry Tomatoes Mini Cucumbers Red Onion Feta Cheese Avocado Baguette ✨Greek Vinaigrette: 1/4 C Organic Olive Oil 2 tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar Juice of one lemon 2 tablespoons tahini 1 tablespoon honey 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard Himalayan Pink Salt Black Pepper #BJsSmartsaver #BJsWholesalePartner

Did you know that the first prescription ever recorded was for Frankincense Oil? The second was for Peppermint Oil. There is so much natural medicine at our disposal, we just have to know where to look. Some of the mostly widely used medications today were originally sourced from plants.
