Interlude Café’s homemade pop tartsThen you’re seriously missing out because oh my god these look so good. I can just imagine Lively doing her makeup and styling her hair while a kid asks if she can have a pop tart, too. He says yes, then the little kids come crying because they want one too but they’re too little to heat it themselves. The oldest daughter is too busy to help, what about Reynolds?

Our lives may not be as amazing as Lively’s, but they’re just as chaotic, and that’s why we love her that much more!
