If you’ve been following me for any amount of time you probably know I live in Texas. I’m not a Texan, mind you, but I live here. It might seem trivial to distinguish the two, but Texas natives are very very particular about this fact.…

If you’ve been following me for any amount of time, you should (hopefully) know by now that I am painfully aware of my own faults. Instead of hiding them or working to overcome then like any normal person does, I choose to wave them around…
Well, hello there, friends. It’s been a hot minute, hasn’t it? This is honestly the longest I’ve gone without writing since starting this little blog thing just about a year ago (EEK! One year anniversary coming in HOT!). In my defense it’s been kind of…
It is 10:50 am as I write this. We, meaning myself and the children, have been up since 7:00 am. My children have been bickering, on and off, since 7:55. This is quarantine life. So far we have bickered over screen time, lack of screentime,…
Welcome to BurntToast! My name is Meaghan, and this is my safe space, a place where we can share stories, share recipes and share life. It’s my dream that you can come here, kick your shoes off and pour yourself a glass of wine while you read, laugh, and maybe even hop into the kitchen. This is my heart, for all of you to see. And ALL are welcome here.
