The Mom Bloggers Club recently recruited people to try out Oscar Mayer hotdogs.  I was sent $15 to make a meal.  I ended up making 2 videos… Boy2001 was most excited about the project and was a big help.  Girl2004 isn’t crazy about hotdogs but she had lots of other stuff to choose from.  Girl2006 [...]

These are THE most amazing edamame snack packets!  I couldn’t get girl2006 to try edamame before I found these.  They’re little single serve packets, completely nutritious and couldn’t be any easier.  Just take a packet out of the freezer, leave it out on the counter or your purse for a while so it defrosts… then snack!!  [...]

My kids LOVE cereal morning noon and night and I always wonder if they’re getting all the vitamins and minerals they need.  It seems I can rest just a little bit easier with General Mills Big G kid cereals in my life.  The classic cereals we all grew up with have evolved into calcium and vitamin [...]

Ghiradelli Peanut Butter Squares are so delicious.  Refined peanut butter/chocolate treats!  I was lucky to get 10 $1 off coupons and they were on sale last week 2 bags for $5.  A $1.50 a bag is a great deal, so I stocked up!  I’m desperately trying to ration them but it’s soooo hard because they [...]

AH! something I have a lot of experience in, talkin’ turkey!  here we are again, headed towards Thanksgiving, many of you are probably starting to worry about your turkeys and the dried out blahness that could occur.  I was actually lucky enough to be chosen to ask a question to the Butterball turkey team last [...]

I LOVE cupcakes! especially big, fluffy ones.  The problem is I don’t know where to get big cupcake tins and I’m a self-declared lousy baker.  The latter part definately did not get passed down to girl2004.  She is a VERY good baker.  She LOVES to bake cookies and cakes for the family, it makes her so [...]

I recently had the opportunity to try out Attune probiotic bars and I am totally addicted!  they are awesome, I especially love the Strawberry Bliss, unbelievably yum!  reminds me of the nutrisystem breakfast bars which I miss so much.  Attune bars however, are not just a delicious treat, they’re the FIRST all natural wellness bars [...]

If I was a blogger 5 years ago you’d have seen pictures of us once or twice a week enjoying the restaurant Bugaboo Creek.  Now of course we have less money for eating out and the bill tends to run much higher for 5 so you might catch us in there every 3 or 4 months [...]
