Happy National Donut Day! Let's make a air-fried d Happy National Donut Day! Let's make a air-fried donuts.

You can make donuts using biscuit dough! I used regular and chocolate chip biscuit dough here. 

Directions:
1. Take your biscuit dough out of the tubes and use a round cookie cutter (or any small round glass) to cut a hole in the middle. Put the center dough to the side.
2. Spray your air fryer with cooking spray.
3. Put as many donuts in the air fryer that will fit your appliance. If you have the Instant Pot/Air Fryer, I did three at a time.
4. Fry the donuts for 6 minutes flipping halfway through. So three minutes, then flip, and three more minutes.
5. Take them out and add your icing!
6. You can use the middle pieces to make donut holes.

Let's make the easiest clam cookies for summer par Let's make the easiest clam cookies for summer parties! These would go well with the crabby chicken salad croissants I shared a few weeks ago. 

To make these, add icing the the back of a Nilla wafer. Place a second cookie on top allowing the front to be open while the backs are touching. Add candy eyes or pearls to the icing. 

You can make these in lots of colors. I was feeling pink, but blue or purple is totally on theme for a mermaid party or a "let's shell-a-brate" party!

Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2021

Mother’s Day is coming! This is my first Mother’s Day on the other side. I love my baby boy so much and am so thankful to be his mama. Today, I’m sharing my Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2021. There are lots of ideas here for lots of different types of mamas. Let’s dive into it!

Check out my mother’s day tea party from last year if you still need an idea to treat your mom!

mother's day gift guide 2021

Kendra Scott Birthstone Necklace – Kendra Scott pieces are so pretty. Getting the mom in your life a necklace with her baby’s birthstone is such a sentimental gift. Plus the necklace is really pretty.

Kendra Scott Birthstone Bracelet – Update on this! They added new colors and birthstones!

Coffee Mugs – I typically don’t drink coffee. HOWEVER, I have a newborn and coffee sounds divine lately. Diet Coke isn’t cutting the mustard anymore. I have a two-tiered stand in my kitchen and these sleek mugs are so pretty in my kitchen. They give a cohesive and chic look.

Apple Airpods – Stephen gave me Apple Airpods for Christmas and I don’t know how I lived this long without them. This is a great gift especially for moms who work from home.

Initial Necklace – I got an initial necklace for myself after Ben was born. I bought this cheaper version and have worn it more than I anticipated. I will probably upgrade to the higher quality version now that I know how much I wear it. The cheaper version is great quality though and only $12!

Mama Sweatshirt – I think the Mama sweatshirts are so cute! This pink one will arrive before Mother’s Day!

Makeup Case – This makeup case is the best and great for traveling. This holds your brushes and your makeup in different compartments. It’s great for organization.

Hoop Earrings – Hoop earrings are a great gift and always a classic. These are so pretty and very affordable.

Barefoot Dreams Blanket – This blanket shows up on every gift guide ever, but these blankets really are that good. This is always a great gift.

Charcuterie Board – Does the mom in your life love hosting? This board is great because it comes with four bowls and has a hidden compartment with four knives.

Revlon One Step – Moms have no time. Now that I have been a mom for a month (LOL) it blows my mind how long it takes to leave the house. This volumizer and dryer combines two very time-consuming steps into one. This is a great gift for busy moms.

Mama Necklace – The gold “Carrie” necklace trend is making a come back. As an alternative to your name, this mama necklace is so, so cute!

Mama “Friends” Font Hat – I have this hat in grey. If the mom in your life is a “Friends” fan, she needs this hat!

Cookie Box Delivery – For the long-distance mom, a cookie delivery will hit the spot! This includes 30 cookies and 5 different flavors.

Those are my items for my Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2021! What are you buying your mom for Mother’s Day? Or if you are a mama, what prize are you buying to treat yourself??
