Leftover Halloween Candy Cake Mix Cookies

Leftover Halloween Cake Mix Cookies

Trick or treating was a big success. Kora and Logan received so much candy there's no way they'll ever eat it all. So I decided to be a little creative and chopped up a variety of candy bars and mixed them into a cookie cake recipe. Wow! This turned out amazing and won't last long. In fact, we are all having a harder time staying away from this than the candy! Leftover Halloween Candy Cake Mix Cookies Ingredients 1 box yellow cake mix 1 egg 2 tbsp water 1/2 cup softened ... continue reading...

Slow Cooker Stuffed Cabbage Rolls Recipe

Stuffed Cabbage Rolls

When I first met Dave, I was introduced to all kind of Slovakian food I'd never heard of. When his mother first served me halupki, (stuffed cabbage rolls) I was wary. But I'm so glad I gave it a try, it's now one of my favorite meals! I recently decided to pull out my crockpot and attempt to make these myself. I'd never made this dish before because I always assumed it was a lot of work. Luckily, it wasn't very time consuming at all, especially thanks to the crockpot which did all the cooking ... continue reading...

Fall Fashion At Marshalls & T.J. Maxx

I love shopping at Marshalls and T.J. Maxx for high-quality designer brands at a up to 60 percent less than the department and specialty stores. Every time I go into one of the stores it's a treasure hunt because the stores are always adding new merchandise every week. I feel like I'm shopping in a new store each time I walk through the doors and I'm always excited about the incredible bargains I'm almost always find. Marshalls & T.J. Maxx sent over some fall fashion tips and I'm ... continue reading...

Gazillion Bubble Show Review

Tickets received. If your kids are anything like mine, they love bubbles.  If my kids had their way, I would be blowing bubbles for them to pop 24 hours a day. That's why we were excited about the Gazillion Bubble Show When I saw that show was coming to town, I knew they would love to go.   As soon as we walked in the door, they had an area set up where you could have your picture taken in a bubble. They were fitting entire families in one bubble. It was amazing! They were ... continue reading...

Easy Pizza Pasta Recipe

Pizza Pasta Recipes

Two of my favorite meals are pizza and pasta. I recently came across a number of recipes combining the two into pizza pasta. It sounded and looked delicious so I had to give it a try. I combined these recipes and added a few of my own twists. The original recipes called for ground beef, which I'd love to try next time but was very happy with the subtleness of the diced chicken. Kora & Logan are not big fans of chicken and they didn't even know they were eating it in this recipe! We all ... continue reading...

Michigan Fall Foliage Photo Collection

Fall Foliage Road Trip

Miles and miles of trees dressed in their ballgowns!  It is the only way I can describe the fall beauty of northern lower Michigan. The oranges, yellows and reds intertwined with the greens on a sunny autumn day is breathtaking. All you have to do is get in your car and drive to the transformation of the countryside. Meandering down Highway 131 between Gaylord and Traverse City is an artist palate come to life. Not only were we fortunate enough to see the beauty of nature in the trees, we ... continue reading...

Super Simple Homemade Microwave Applesauce

Apples

We love applesauce. Between all of us we could go through two big jars a week if we tried. I've always wanted to make homemade applesauce but thought it would be too difficult and daunting. I obviously never looked up a recipe. I was short on time today but wanted to try to make some for the kids so I searched for microwave applesauce recipes online. I put together the recipe below from a number of different recipes and some of my own inspiration (the pumpkin pie spice - I'm using it in ... continue reading...

Hey there! I’m Tesa, the mom behind 2 Wired 2 Tired. The blog got its name because we have two kids born a year apart and my husband, Dave, and I always joked that "the kids were too wired and we were too tired!" :)

Fast forward a bit—now the kids are off to college (how did that happened so fast!) and since 2009, I’ve been blogging through the chaos, coffee in hand, finding the best in family, travel, and tech—because honestly, who has time for bad gadgets and boring trips?

So, whether you're searching for family travel inspiration, tech gadgets, or tips to enhance family life, you're in the right place because the fun (and the coffee) is always brewing around here!
