- Clean out and organize not just the rooms themselves, but organization spaces such as closets, shelves, drawers, and bookshelves.
- Learn how to properly use organization equipment, such as bins, drawer organizers, storage bins, food storage containers, lids, and baskets.

- Share your successes and see the successes of others as we all work towards finding balance and clarity in our homes.
- Can ask questions and let me know what you may still need help with so that I can continue to cater the course to your needs
What Do People Have To Say About My Organization Course?
“This course was instrumental in helping me organize my space as well as my time. As a busy mom, I have a better grasp on what my days need to include so that I can enjoy my family rather than spend my time spinning my wheels cleaning up after everyone.”
“The Balanced Home Course helped me to be the “professional organizer” for my family! Simple steps to follow, check lists, printable labels, suggestions and worksheets will keep you on track to successfully maintain your own balanced home.”
“I am pretty sure I have solved more issues with the seven layers and clarity tool than I have in 6 months of therapy!! I think this course is going to help much more than my home. Thanks Amy!!!!”
When I realized I had been overcomplicating the idea of organization, that simplifying was a key component, then things really started to fall into place!”

hello , congratulations for the blog I always follow ? and also for the recipe , try it
Thank you and enjoy the recipe.
looks SO good two of my favorite flavors!
You will have to try out the recipe and let me know what you think. It really is delicious!
Thanks too my father who informed me about this web site, this blog is actually remarkable.
That’s great! Thank you so much!
I tried this recipe twice now. The first time the loaves got a bit dark and the raspberries were only in the bottom half of the loaves. The second time the raspberries sank to the bottom of the loaves and the loaves didn’t rise in the middle. Any suggestions?
Not sure what is going on. Maybe change in elevation. You may need to adjust the temperature and time. Not sure. So sorry.
I Love this recipe! I make it gluten free, and the last time I used huckleberries instead of raspberries. Delicious!! Thank you.
DeSha- Great idea, I will have to make it Gluten Free. Haven’t tried that yet.
Try dusting the raspberries lightly with flour before putting them in the batter. It works with blueberries so might help raspberries.
Great tip.
This is incredible! I’ve made it twice now and it is a huge hit! So flavorful!
Whitney, I am so happy that you have enjoyed the recipe!
I made this in a cake pan and it turned out perfectly.
Ronda- Great idea putting the cake into a cake pan! So happy it turned out perfectly.
About how many tablespoons of lemon zest do you end up using? Our store has tiny lemons and huge lemons.
Not exactly sure, but I used two large lemons. Hope this helps.
Made this tonight to give out to family and friends for the holidays! Turned out well. I ended up doubling the recipe and made 8 mini loaves. Had just enough flavor of lemon, but wasn’t over-powering! Delicious, thank you for sharing!
It looks like the recipe shows instruction for two loafs but that the images like to be mini loafs. Could you share what the bake time is for mini loaves please?
What would be the best way to freeze this if needed, and also how long can it be froze?
You can wrap your loaf using two clear plastic bags. Then, seal it using masking tape and place it in the freezer.
OMG- this is so yummy and easy to make! Love it! Thanks for sharing the recipe
Angela-Thank you!
was wondering if u can freeze the bread once its been baked?
Margarette- Yes, it freezes well. Enjoy!
What size of loaf pans do you recommend? Thank you!
We love to bake our quick breads in these long loaf bread pans! The bread seems to bake more evenly without burning around the edges and remaining uncooked in the middle. You can find the ones we use here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0032JRVCG/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=thidro-20&creative=9325&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B0032JRVCG&linkId=529a03c45aa81a4a215581797b766fe5
Yes! It freezes great!
My raspberries were very mushy after baking. I made 2 loaves of bread. Don’t know what went wrong.
Karen- Maybe try coating them in the flour mixture first. So sorry!
The flavor is terrific though. Will coat them next time ?
Thanks Karen.
You should correct your first line to say combine all dry ingredients except the sugar.
Sheila- Thanks for making me aware of this. I will have to correct that to make it more clear for everyone.
Hi can you use frozen raspberrys?
Kristina- Yes, but I would toss them in the flour first and coat them really well. The excess water they contain can make them heavy and more likely to sink. Coating them in flour will help them to hold their place in the cake batter.
I made this for my son’s state report food and his class loved it! His teacher even asked for the recipe! Luckily I doubled it so we had plenty for the whole weekend! So yummy!!
Rebecca- I am so happy to hear this! We love this recipe too!
Made this today in two loaf pans. A total flop! Center sank and berries all at the bottom. A soggy mess. Tastes good though. Won’t use this recipe again.
Gerri- So sorry it didn’t turn out for you. Did you try tossing your berries with a tablespoon or two of flour before adding them to the batter? Just remember to account for that when you mix up your dry ingredients, subtracting that same tablespoon or two from the amount called for in the recipe. Sometimes that helps with keeping the berries from going to the bottom.
Hi! Have you tried making this Keto friendly? I’m wondering how coconut flour might work?
Valerie- I have not tried Coconut Flour. I bet it would be fine to substitute though.
Hi, looks delicious! Does the glaze dry so that the loaf can be wrapped in plastic wrap?
Rosalie- It will dry if kept out for a little bit. You could then go ahead and wrap it up. Would be a great bread to freeze and pull out when needed.
I made this in loaf and muffin sizes, also made it gluten free and used frozen berries that I partially defrosted. Gluten free needs more liquid so I didn’t adjust any measurements I use better batter gluten free flour mix. So far, no one can tell it’s gluten free. Yay!!! Thanks for the recipe. I actually added some lemon flavoring and vanilla. It probably doubled the amount. I made a double batch.
Desha- I love all the tips. I am going to try them out. So happy you enjoyed the recipe.
I made this in a Bundt pan, it turned out absolutely delicious and I went lighter on the lemon juice for the glaze. The only mistake I made was adding the sugar with the dry ingredients. I should’ve read the instructions more carefully. It still turned out good, thank you for sharing.
Lori- I am so happy to hear this! Great tip for glaze too!
Can this be made into muffins?
Yes, they can.
