“We have a piggy bank that has 3 compartments: Spend, Save and Share. When he gets allowance $1 goes in each section then the remainder he can decide which section to use. Spend is money he can use to buy himself things at the store. Share is for a charity and his choice of donation has been to the Dumb Friends League. His Save is used for bigger items but we do put it into a savings account as well as all his birthday and Christmas money. His savings account is looking pretty healthy.”
That’s such a thoughtful way to teach him about managing money early on! I love how you’re showing him how to balance fun, generosity, and saving for the future—plus, the Dumb Friends League donation is just the sweetest! -Danielle 😊

Grilled Cheese in the Oven 🍞🧀
acouplecooks
Ever tried making grilled cheese for a small army of hungry little ones, and thought there has to be a better way?
Say goodbye to that pan-flipping workout and hello to the dreamy ease of oven-grilled cheese sandwiches.
That's right, oven magic!
Let’s dive into this mouth-watering shortcut.
Why You’ll Love It:
🧈 Perfectly toasted, buttery bread without standing over the stove.
🧀 Make up to 8 sandwiches at once—great for feeding a crowd!
📝 Ingredients
For each munch-worthy sandwich:
2 slices of bread
Butter, for that golden spread
¼ cup of cheddar cheese
¼ cup of mozzarella cheese, for that melt-in-your-mouth feel
👩🍳 Instructions
Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 425°F.
Prep the Bread: Butter one side of each bread slice. Place one slice, butter-side down, on a baking sheet.
Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella evenly on the bread, then top with the second slice, butter-side up.
Bake: Bake for 6 minutes, flip the sandwiches, and bake for another 6 minutes. If the bread isn’t browned, bake for an additional minute on each side.
📌 Note
Want to jazz up your sandwiches?
Think about smoked gouda with fig jam for a posh feel.
Or get inspired by a spinach artichoke dip and sandwich it between those slices.
Brie with apple slices? Oh la la!
How about an avocado grilled cheese sandwich?
Oh, and if you're planning on turning this into a full-blown meal, think fresh green salads, maybe a pear or pomegranate salad, or dive into a warm bowl of classic tomato soup.
With this oven magic trick up your sleeve, dinner just got a whole lot easier (and cheesier!).
Keep rockin' the kitchen! 🎸🍽️

No-Sew Fabric Pumpkins on a Painted Board
Fall is here, and you know what that means—pumpkin everything! 🎃
No sewing needed, just some fabric and a hot glue gun.
Start by painting a wood board any light color you like.
Let it dry while you sip on that much-needed coffee. ☕️
Cut fabric into strips and give them a twist.
Glue them onto the board in a cute pumpkin shape.
For a stem, cut a small piece of board, paint it brown, and glue it on top.
Add a twisty wire for that extra wow factor.
Your little ones will love it, and so will you!
The tutorial is here.
