This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.

ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

The biggest expense for most people is paying for a place to live, whether you rent or own. We can’t address the cost-of-living crisis without dealing with our housing shortage.

Valentine’s Day is tomorrow and if you’re still planning to grab those store-bought peanut butter hearts at checkout, let me remind you what’s actually in them-all those preservatives and additives just to make something you could whip up at home tonight with simple ingredients

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive.

It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water.

Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.

I used to wing it at the grocery store every single week. I’d throw whatever sounded good into my cart, trying to remember what was in them but then I’d forget half the ingredients I needed.

And here’s why I’ll never grab those Little Debbie Valentine hearts off the shelf again ->
Sugar and corn syrup are the first two ingredients.

Because let’s be real—when you look at that ingredient list on the box, you’ll find things like BHT, caramel color, maltodextrin, trisodium phosphate, soy lecithin, and a long list of other unnecessary ingredients.

Why settle for 26 mystery ingredients in a tube when you can make soft, buttery crescents at home with just 7 simple ones? 🥐💛

Say goodbye to drive-through breakfast runs and make these instead

These homemade egg bites are everything you love about the coffee shop version-without the mystery ingredients, the price tag, or the wait in line.
What makes these better:

The average American family of 6 spends $450 per month on pre-packaged snacks. That's $5,400 per year going toward snacks, cookies, and crackers loaded with artificial flavors, colors, and unnecessary ingredients.

These homemade candy hearts are everything you love about Valentine's Day (without the Red 40, artificial flavors, and ingredients you can't pronounce)

Comment VALENTINE and I'll send you the recipe!

It’s not what you think... I’m not spending hours in the kitchen every day. I’m not some expert baker who went to culinary school. I’m just a regular mom who got tired of watching our grocery bill climb while reading ingredient labels that looked like chemistry experiments.

The pumpkin pie we make year after year 🙌🏽✨

No mystery ingredients or processed fillets - just real pumpkin, warm spices, and flaky buttery crust! You can use store bought or make your own! (My homemade crust recipe can be found in my handbook to homemade recipe book!)

POV: You make my homemade Cranberry Bliss Bars with real ingredients and never have to buy them again. 🎄✨

The most amazing mashup 🍎✨
This is one of our holiday favorites on repeat! Homemade dough, apple filling, streusel topping and icing is *chefs kiss* Perfect for weekend mornings, holiday gathering, or literally anytime you want your house to smell like something cozy is baking!

My weekly meal prep routine that saves my sanity 🙌
Sunday prep = stress-free weekday mornings!
When breakfast, snacks, and produce are already done, those chaotic moments become so much easier.

Same addictive cheesy crunch. Same satisfying snap. Zero unnecessary ingredients your kids don’t need.

Used my same homemade Goldfish recipe but rolled thinner and baked a little longer! 🧀✨

I'll never forget the day I stood in my pantry, really looking at what I was feeding my family of seven. Box after box of processed snacks. Frozen meals promising "convenience" but delivering..what exactly?

I wanted to make more from scratch, but I was completely overwhelmed. Where do I even START?

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but most holiday store-bought treats are filled with ingredients banned in other countries.
