Saturday Fun

Welcome to Saturday, folks! We have Duck's best friend, Moose, as a house guest this weekend. Moose is incredibly patient with Addi (thanks to his own tiny humans), and it’s been a joy having him around.

Today we’re restocking our egg bites (mini frittatas). The usual recipe includes cheese, eggs, and cooked breakfast sausage crumbles, but this time we added broccoli to use up a half-bag of leftover chopped broccoli in the fridge.

I’m also trying out an experiment inspired by some kind of tater tot and sausage muffin Kurt saw last weekend. Since we’re working with what we have, I improvised with chopped biscuits (from a tube), French fries, an egg, and gravy. I layered the biscuits in the muffin tin, mixed the fries with the gravy and egg, spooned it on top, and popped it in the oven at 350°F for about 15 minutes. Fingers are very much crossed for this one!

On a completely different note, I finished the first chapter of my book last night! I’m proud of it but nervous about the next few chapters. I’m worried they might feel repetitive, and the last thing I want is for the story to become boring. I’ll be spending some time brainstorming to keep things fresh and engaging.

What are you up to this weekend? Do you like experimenting in the kitchen? How are you?

Introduction

Welcome to Mama’s Not Organized! I’m Taylor, a mom navigating the beautiful chaos of parenting, productivity, and everything in between. Here, you won’t find picture-perfect routines or unrealistic advice. Instead, I’m all about sharing real-life tips that make life a little easier (most days), delicious recipes that are family-approved, and cleaning hacks that help me survive the messes without losing my mind. I’m also on my own journey of trying to stay focused and productive—especially with ADHD in the mix—so if you’re a parent feeling a little “all over the place,” you’re in the right spot. Let’s figure out how to get through the mess (literally and figuratively) together, with a healthy dose of humor, caffeine, and compassion.

Homemade Coffee Creamer: Potty Training Edition.

Today is Monday, Happy Monday! It is definitely a day that needs a lot of caffeine, so I'm going to share my coffee creamer recipe (it kind of reminds me of eggnog)  Ingredients: 1 3/4 cups condensed milk 1 1/2 cups milk 2 tsp vanilla extract 1 cinnamon stick 1 tbsp ground cinnamon 1 tbsp nutmeg Instructions: 1. In a saucepan, combine the condensed milk, regular milk, cinnamon stick, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Heat over medium-low heat, allowing the mixture to simmer for a few minutes until combined.  I got sidetracked with a toddler yelling "gotta go!" (We are in the thick of potty training) so i got to sit next to the toilet while my daughter told me all about how much she loves puppies and her dada. When I got back to the kitchen the coffee creamer had cooked down to more of a syrup than the usual milk like viscosity, but that is okay, it is just more condensed now so a little goes a long way.  Life can be crazy, Mondays especially so. Mondays with toddlers? We need ...

Tiny people hacks

Today’s post is all about the best hacks I’ve discovered since becoming a mom! 1. Garment Bags for Tiny Socks: Invest in two garment bags. When you take baby or toddler socks off those tiny feet, put them directly into one of the bags. When it’s laundry time, you’ll have all the socks together, ready to wash. With two bags, you can alternate—one for clean socks and one for dirty ones. This little trick has definitely helped keep tiny socks from mysteriously disappearing! 2. Hair Oil Magic: Do you have a little one with hair long enough for those tiny elastics? I swear by hair oil! We use a spray bottle (I think it’s by OGX), and it’s a lifesaver. Not only does it keep her hair soft, but it also helps break down the rubber bands, making it so much easier to remove them without pulling or tangling. A total game-changer for those little hairdos! 3. Diaper Rash Cream Hack: When my daughter has a diaper rash, I’ve found it gentler to spread the diaper rash cream directly into the diaper rat...
