Maple Pumpkin Granola

October 10, 2017 · 2 Comments

Maple Pumpkin Granola | Dreamery Events The days are getting shorter, the afternoon cooler, and the weekends are spent doing fun Fall activities like picking apples, watching football and carving pumpkins. This weather and season naturally makes you crave comfort, and there’s nothing cozier than a morning spent with your loved ones and adorable kiddos, baking a batch of this golden, crispy Maple Pumpkin Granola!

Maple Pumpkin Granola | Dreamery Events Maple Pumpkin Granola | Dreamery Events Some of you may not know but along with being an event planner, designer and pastry chef, I’m not I’m also a children’s cooking and baking teacher, so getting kids in the kitchen is really important to me. I’m a big believer that children will learn to love food, and get over their picky tastebuds by getting involved and helping make the food they eat.

When kids see exactly what goes into their food, and how fun cooking can be, their appetites almost instantly change. I’m pretty certain you’ll also get some extra adorable helping hands in the kitchen. Which is why I’m so excited to be teaming up with the lovely Paula and her adorable girls to kick off our Mommy and Me In The Kitchen series, where I’ll be sharing recipes to get your kiddos in the kitchen, and loving all types of food!

To kick things off, I’m sharing my favorite fall maple pumpkin granola, so head over to Paula’s blog to read the full post and get this must do autumn recipe below!

There is always homemade granola in my house, it’s become a monthly tradition, each time slightly different from the last, always reflecting of the season. It’s a perfect quick and healthy breakfast with milk or topped onto yogurt with fresh fruit, or the best snack for your kiddos to take in their lunch boxes. And since it’s Fall we’re making all things PUMPKIN, and this granola is blended with organic pumpkin puree, plenty of this comforting pumpkin spice blend, and maple syrup! Maple Pumpkin Granola | Dreamery Events

The hard task might be getting this granola to last longer than a week.

Dreamery Headshot_2020

I love everything about entertaining. Flowers are my weakness, a slice of homemade pie makes my heart sing & I’m a sucker for wedding videos. Travel is a constant source of inspiration and motivation. I dream about these things, it’s true. But what I love most, is working with amazing people to create meaningful & unique celebrations…..

Woke up feeling a bit more hopeful & lighter after Woke up feeling a bit more hopeful & lighter after yesterday’s historic day. change won’t happen all at once, there is much to work on...
but for the first time in some time,
I know many are easing up those tense shoulders
& releasing a big deep breathe of relief...

it’s okay to feel good
about releasing all the energy
from the last four years,
we deserve to celebrate
letting go of that...but I do feel
this overall newfound sense of hope,
of inspiration, of drive, motivation,
one we haven’t felt in sometime,
a sigh of relief, that at least,
we’re taking the first steps 
to expand & better the days ahead for all🌾🧡✨
This week may have been a lot but at least it ende This week may have been a lot but at least it ended w. pretty flowers for little Adelaide! Her 3rd birthday may not be as big as her “Some Bunny is 1” or “Peppa Pig Muddy Puddles” celebrations but her loved ones are sure to make her special day “Berry Sweet”🍓🌸
E X P A N S I O N — "the act or process of expan E X P A N S I O N — "the act or process of expanding"💫

this year I choose to expand on the
lessons last year served us...
I expand upon all my visions, dreams & intentions
I aim to expand on love, abundance, health, joy, comfort, courage, creativity, adventure, calm, authenticity, w.e big or small that makes my soul sing & thus expand upon my growth.
But I wholeheartedly hope that this year can help others expand on all the good things they want as well -- especially in global terms🤍

I haven't set resolutions in years, instead I always set intentions -- little things that become part of who I am & in turn become the steps to bring all those images I'm inspired by, into life in my own way.

I'm simplifying even more & stripping it down, choosing to always show myself, & others,
more Grace. I quite enjoy this slow but intentional path. Yes, embracing a fresh new start seems appealing, but there’s much uncertainty still to face & we have a whole year ahead of us.

There’s time to get it done so no need to rush into it...show yourself & others some grace, be a Kind human always, because anything can happen✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Adeus 2020... It‘ll be impossible to forget you, Adeus 2020...
It‘ll be impossible to forget you, you broke us, but you also reminded us how we resilient we are. Your chapter is closed, good riddance!!

Ironically my word for 2020 was “Bliss” yet despite all the grief, the heartbreak + emotional rollercoaster I think all of us, although at times hard, did see the silver linings this past year brought. Personally, I realized early on the immense amount of Bliss that was already present in my life, perhaps more so if this year wasn’t what it was.

No, there weren’t Big Blissful moments or travels, but there was so many moments to enjoy the simple pleasures of every day. More time in the garden, a newfound excitement in the kitchen, endless cloud gazing — birdsong listening — butterfly + dragonfly catching — soothing sunsets + always stopping to smell the roses moments. Blissful moments to create whatever it was I felt like doing, moments to appreciate what truly matters in life + what of that is what always needs to be present in life. The chance to escape in the safety of nature + loved ones. The blissful opportunity to rest, to mentally wander, to learn what stillness really is. 

I gave myself grace this year & a well deserved pat on the back, & I really hope you did the same!! As I sail into 2021 I remember just how important all these moments are for growth + Expansion…

Things won’t change right away but all I can wish for all of us in 2021 is abundance, health, unity, joy & Love🤍🤍
