Maple Roasted Carrots

Maple Roasted Carrots add color to your meal. Adding maple brings out the flavor in this recipe.
The exhaustion from day light savings time has finally hit. I love having the extra daylight in the evenings but man I am tired all throughout the day. We’ve also had Spring Break this week so basically no naps at all till school starts back up. Momma is tired!
After a long and stressful day yesterday I was able to finish it off with Olivia enjoying the nice weather outside. She laid out some blankets on the trampoline and was watching the stars appear before she went to bed. It’s those times that make you want to slow down and cherish every single moment before it’s too late.
This week I’ve been able to make a lot of meals for our family that didn’t require recipe writing or photographs. It was nice to take a step back and just enjoy cooking and baking for the week and concentrate on the kids.
I did manage to make these simple Maple Roasted Carrots for dinner one night along with Chicken Milanese. They would also accompany any main meal for your Easter gathering this next week. The kids devoured them and so did we and I can’t wait for them to show up for Easter lunch.

It’s beautiful how simple routines like shared meals or stargazing can become cherished memories—those little moments really do matter. Speaking of meaningful experiences, choosing the right bridal jewelry added a special touch to my own wedding journey. I had a great experience with https://elgrissydiamonds.com/collections/bride — their elegant pieces truly stood out. Especially for buyers in the United States, the smooth delivery and attention to detail made it all even more memorable. Their craftsmanship made me feel confident and radiant on such an important day.
That kind of cozy evening with the kids really hits home — I’ve had days like that too, where you’re drained but small moments make it all worth it
