I love baking from scratch when I have time.
Lately, time has been hiding from this neck of the woods.
School, soccer, karate, cub scouts, MOPS, etc. have taken up the space of time that lingered around here this past summer.
When I spotted this pumpkin bread mix at Fresh and Easy, I grabbed it and did a happy dance.
Well, I didn't really dance, but I thought about it.
Just kidding.
Or not.
Here's the deal. My boys don't know the difference between from scratch or from the box.
I'll tell you what they do know:
Time with mom.
Measuring and pouring.
Waiting.
Sniffing.
Devouring.
Whether you bake from scratch or from the box, it is about the process with the littles you love.
Much love,
Katie

Good night! :)
Beautiful boys! look forward to following you :)
I may be entering the minivan world some time next year. I'm scared!! lol
Those look and sound amazingly declicious.. I miss fresh and easy so much! We don't have them here in TX. Boo.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a sweet comment on my blog :)
Have a good Halloweekend!
Those look so good! I get tired of cooking sometimes too. Not only does the cooking take a while, but then the kitchen has to be cleaned! I know your boys would rather be with you :)
so true, katie! i always love reading about how you take the time to spend with your boys amidst the busyness of life---that's what it's about! happy weekend

i love the smell of pumpkin bread baking!! ...& what cute little fellas you have!
i can almost smell pumpkin. and your posts keep making me hungry. stop it.
yes!! time is scarce here, too, we are loving some quality time from a box ;) also, fresh and easy is one of my fave things in california ;)
love you!
What a great post. Great reminder too. It's not about whether or not something comes from a box or is made from scratch. It's the quality time that matters.
My littles would love those! Cute shots!!
I agree! Though I often make stuff from scratch, I think we all don't need to Martha. More important to spend time with our children as it is apparent martha's daughter has some hard feelings about her mother.
So true Katie! Love this post and you too! xx
