Bosch MIXXO Handheld Blender

We are all about convenience in our home, but I still want to make snacks and meals that are good for the ones that I love. When I used to think of making smoothies, the first thing that came to mind was “Mess!” Way back when, I had this smoothie machine that was such a pain. It had so many parts,...

Pantry Organization & Labeling

No. Really. Everything is labeled, except the cat. Give me time. I am sure I will get to her. Trisha posted to me on FaceBook this afternoon: that is just sick tanya :lol: Love you too! Yes. I AM this organized. I spent 3 hours today organizing the medicine drawer and our downstairs bathroom. We...

Kids eat FREE at IHOP!

Last weekend, we had the yummy chance to go check out some new items from IHOP. Did you know that with each adult meal that is purchased, you get a free kids meal? I had NO idea until we arrived. I was pretty excited, to tell you the truth! It gets pretty darn pricey when you eat out and you have to...

Gourmet Peanut Butter from PB Loco

When you think about Gourmet Peanut Butter, what comes to mind? What I think of is 'expensive' for the first thought and the second is 'weird flavor'. Well, we have been big fan of PB Loco now for about a year and we had a chance to try out a couple of new flavors that we love! Tucker is a HUGE fan...

Oscar Mayer Lunchables

“Mommy, I’m hungry!” Does this sound familiar? Not at all times do I have the energy to whip up a snack for the kids and to be honest, fast food is not very appealing to me as a parent. I want my kids to have a tasty snack that is better for them than some fast food snack or meal. With Oscar Mayer,...

Fun Back to School Recipes & Ideas from Sara...

Last month, just before BlogHer, I had a once in a lifetime opportunity to visit the Sara Lee headquarters, take a tour of the entire facility and taste some yummy new things that Sara Lee had in the workings. I loved them before the summit, but I adore them even more as a company! While I was there,...

Give yourself a treat with Kellogg’s Cinnabon...

Who doesn’t fall head over heels with Cinnabon and Cinnamon Roll tasting yummies? I know that I am a nut for Cinnabon! With most of us watching what we eat and making sure we still cure those tunny grumbles, is that Kellogg’s has a new product out that will make you drool! Kellogg’s® Cinnabon®...

More taste & half the carbs with Atkins!...

With all of our routines back in to play in our house (hubby is back at work after the summer home & Tucker is back in preschool) now it is time for mommy to get back to work on herself! I am so excited to have my “ME” time to work out while Kambry naps and Tucker is in school, and when I am...

Teaching kids to eat healthy

I am all about finding healthier alternative foods for my kids to eat. We don’t really keep any junk food in the house and I do have to say that I think I lucked out with the kids – they love veggies! How can we help introduce things to their diets that taste good and that they will like and want...

What? A Frigidaire Refrigerator can SAVE...

I cannot begin to tell you how much I, and my family, have thoroughly enjoyed having our new stainless steel Frigidaire fridge in our home. Not only are we saving money by not buying bottled water (the filtered water ROCKS!), we are saving a lot of time by being able to find the things in our fridge...

Holiday baking with Wilton Cookie Exchange

How many of you love to bake cookies? In the past, I never really was a ‘fan’ of cookies like sugar cookies where you make it from scratch, cut and do all the fancy icing, that is… until the last year or so. I think to get really motivated to get in to cookie baking you need the right tools and...
