It’s an entire eBook, filled with ten healthy, easy breakfast recipes – and it’s FREE for Heavenly Homemakers Subscribers! To encourage us all as we work to get ahead in our kitchens, here is Healthy Breakfast Made Simple:

Yum

I’ve decided that we can never have too many quick and healthy breakfast recipes. I love recipes that can be made ahead of time (or thrown together quickly), and my family really appreciates a variety. I shared the Homemade Instant Oatmeal Packets recipe a few days ago, which is the recipe that inspired the idea for this eBook several weeks ago. I thought it would be nice to have the instant oatmeal recipe in a handy printable, then as I began putting it together, an entire eBook evolved. It’s not a fancy eBook, but who needs fancy? We just need simple, right? A Healthy Breakfast Made Simple. :)

This eBook, Healthy Breakfast Made Simple, has ten healthy breakfast recipes for you, many of which can be prepared ahead of time. Here’s what you’ll find in this eBook:

Do The Funky Kitchen – Now on Kindle!

August 21, 2013 by Laura Leave a Comment

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

Feeling unorganized? Wish the gunk stuck to your refrigerator shelves was cleaned off? Want a more organized pantry? Hoping to create a healthy kitchen that your family can enjoy together?  Like reading books on Kindle?

We have exciting news —>  Do The Funky Kitchen: How to Have a Functional Kitchen is now available on Kindle at Amazon!

funky_kitchen_amazon

I do have to warn you that simply reading this book will not be the magic cure to saving your dysfunctional kitchen. You still have to do the work. (There should be an app for that…)

But Do The Funky Kitchen will give you the jump start you need to get your kitchen fresh and organized for the fall season. Or any season.

Prefer the ebook version? You can grab it directly from our shop. But if an eReader is what works best for you, we’re so happy to offer this option for you! (Check out the introductory price!)

My New Facebook Page and a Round of Applause For My Designers

August 19, 2013 by Laura 1 Comment

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

You’ve got to go take a look – my Heavenly Homemakers Facebook Page just got a makeover!

See, I told you we had fun new things to reveal this week. Free printables, new Facebook page, and that’s not all. There’s something else we’ve been working on, and I’ll share that later this week!

Let me be very clear about the “we” who has been working on all of these projects. I am very clearly not a designer. I’m the one who was trying to decided between white or off-white when picking paint colors for my living room. Designing, choosing colors, and creating art is not my gift. (Be relieved – I called in for back up and had an artistic friend of mine come help me pick great living room paint.)

The free printables we’ve started featuring will all be created by Charlene of Delight Design. I send her the ideas of what I’m looking for – she turns them out better than I even picture them to be! My new facebook design was done by Andrew of Andhedrew.com. I love what he’s come up with! It’s so great to have brilliant and talented people behind my ideas for this site. I’m very thankful.

So, go check out my new Facebook page. Go grab the Free Printables we’re starting to offer. And be thankful I’m not trying to create these entirely on my own. White documents with black New Times Roman text is not cute.

Hey, and if you haven’t “liked” my Facebook page yet, I’d love for you to do that while you’re over there. We’re working to improve that page to share more ideas, tips, recipes, and fun, and we’d love for you to join us!

LYLLTSfrontpage2b_sm

I got this encouraging email from Brandy last week and wanted to share it with you:

I just wanted to say thanks for writing your Learn Your Letters Learn To Serve curriculum! I totally love it!

I am using it with my 4th son (age 5). The best part is the service ideas. We have been taking him to the person’s house and going up to the door (with Daddy), knocking and then he says, “I made this for you.” while looking them in the eye. These are all huge things for a shy kid!

Thanks for teaching my kids to serve and pray for others. Everyone is getting into it and I will totally be using it for my 5th son when he is ready!

Thanks! Brandy

I love this! So thankful to hear that the curriculum is blessing so many.

Remember, you can get 40% off the downloadable curriculum kit (and all of our downloadable items) through Thursday!  (This offer is only good on the download, not the printed version.)  Use the code LAURAIS40 for the discount. Read more details about this sale here.

Learn Your Letters, Learn to Serve: Early Learners Curriculum Kit – New, Improved, and On Sale!

June 4, 2013 by Laura 5 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

I am so thankful to see how Learn Your Letters, Learn to Serve has come together. Working through this curriculum blessed our family so much when our boys were little, and I’ve heard from so many of you over the past 2 1/2 years that the curriculum has blessed your family too.

It is with great excitement that I now present this curriculum to you in a “new set of clothes.” The content is the same. The idea of teaching your kids to serve right along with teaching them academic basics is the same. But the look is new. The format is much improved. Overall, it looks much more professional.

Have you purchased Learn Your Letters, Learn to Serve in the past? Email me if you’d like a download link for the updated version. If you don’t yet have this curriculum, but have kids ages 2-7, I would love for you to look into this kit. With 26 complete lessons including recipes, crafts, Bible stories and memory work, writing practice, and so much more – along with loads of ideas of how to teach your kids to think of and serve others – this curriculum is a well rounded program for your whole family to enjoy together.

LYLLTSfrontpage2b_sm

Some of our family’s favorite memories include:  On “Jj week”, taking a Jar of Jelly beans to our “bigger” friend John (a great role model to our boys when they were little); Receiving a “Mmmm!” thank you note for the “marvelous, magnificent mini muffins” from Mr. and Mrs. Miller after our visit with them on “Mm week”; Surprising Daddy with Donuts on “Dd week”; Picking out a tiny toy for Tina on “Tt week” – not to mention how much fun we had brainstorming together for people to serve and what we might surprise them with that week! Our list goes on…the kids still talk about all we did with these ideas when they were little. 

You can read more about this curriculum kit here. The entire kit is 183 pages, loaded with ideas and information – plenty to keep you busy, yet flexible enough to work in any family situation. To get a feel for what this kit is like, help yourself to free Curriculum Sample Pages, including the lesson for LetterBb.

For one week, we are offering a “re-launch special” – knocking $10 off the price. We offer this curriculum in download form and printed form too – whichever works better for your family!

What You Are Saying About “Oh, For Real”

April 3, 2013 by Laura 11 Comments

This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see our disclosure policy.

I have been so thankful to receive feedback on the cookbook! Here are a few testimonies I’ve put together from people who are loving Oh, For Real: Real Food, Real Family, Real Easy…

ForRealBookCover6

Karen:  Mine came in the mail today, much to my excitement. All other responsibilities had to come to a grinding halt while I took some time to look through it. I’m so glad you put in lovely photos for almost every recipe! I’ve already used so many of these recipes from your website and it will be SO NICE to be able to access them now in this lovely cookbook. Thank you ever so much!

Gina:  I got my book yesterday and was so excited. I have already read it most of the way through. I made a couple of recipes already. PS. I have already broke it in by getting a spatter on it.

Samantha:  When I got home from seeing you I put my daughter down for her nap and read the entire thing! I couldn’t put it down!! Thank you again!

Jean:  Got my cookbook yesterday and love it, I love it, I love it!!! I like the way that each recipe highlights where to look for the highlights in blue and then go right to the page and there’s the recipe. I was going to organize the ones that I have printed off your website, but now I won’t have to go to all of that work – it’s already done for me. Thanks so much!!!

Yvonne:  I have to say I was extremely excited that you decided to write a recipe book. Our family has been enjoying so many of your meals, but I hated to have the computer in the kitchen with me while I cooked, and didn’t want to write all those recipes down by hand. Anyway, I anxiously waited for your book to come in the mail. I have to say, my expectations were very high. When I opened the package yesterday, all I can say is “WOW”! Your book exceeded my expectations by leaps and bounds! It is so beautifully put together! Thank you! Thank you! You have really inspired me to cook and bake again!

Sarah:  I got my copy today! I’m so super excited!! It’s beautiful! And it has all the best stuff from your website all in one easy to use place. Thanks so much for all you share with us!!

Fletcher:  I just had to say thank you for your wonderful cookbook!! It came on Monday and my daughter sorted through ALL of the mail before she opened the package and started flipping through the cookbook. (We were on the way to guitar lesson and I was driving – it wasn’t fair, but she is my sous chef). We both starting oohing and ahhing over the recipes. I’m thrilled to finally have your tortilla recipe! We recently started making them from scratch, but I’ve been hoping and praying that your recipe was in the cookbook :)

Tara H:  I got your book a couple days ago. I absolutely love it! It is wonderful to have it in print! I like having a kindle app full of books but truth is, I usually don’t get around to reading them. Love, love, love all of the info in your book! It’s totally worth the price!

gb_casserole_2

This Hearty Green Bean Casserole has become one of my favorites to fix for my family. It is a “one dish meal”, with meat and veggies in it. Plus, it freezes well, to be reheated quickly when needed. It’s a perfect meal for a busy night! This is one of the new recipes featured in Oh, For Real!

Haven’t ordered your copy yet? What are you waiting for?! :)  Click here to learn more about Oh, For Real: Real Food, Real Family, Real Easy.
