I have mentioned before that my kids love yogurt.  As a matter of fact, we all love yogurt.  The problem is that sometimes they taste, well, not so kid-friendly.  I am not saying that my kids won’t eat most types of yogurt, but they certainly prefer some over others. Thanks to Yoplait, we now have [...]

50 Toddler Sing-Along Songs (review)

August 25, 2010

I may not be the best singer, but I do enjoy singing to my kids.  Luckily, they don’t mind and it has turned into a daily occurrence for me to sing to them.  That said, I am lacking in songs.  I remember nursery rhymes from when I was a kid but I often don’t remember [...]

We are a family on a budget.  Part of my being able to stay home with the kids means that we need to cut corners and save wherever we can.  One way to do that is through our grocery budget.  I like to do that with Save-A-Lot shopping. Save-A-Lot offers quality brand name and private [...]

Coffee Rich Non-Dairy Creamer Review

August 20, 2010

Mike is the coffee drinker in our house.  How he drinks his coffee is by color though.  If the coffee is light tan, it is good for him.  We recently were sent a coupon to receive a carton of Rich’s Coffee Rich Non-Dairy Creamer. Mike said that the creamer is really good.  He can have [...]

I am a mom with kids, dogs, and cats.  My house gets messy.  I will tell you the truth… I have tried many, many mops in my life as a wife and mother.  I have spent more money than I care to admit.  That is all over now though and I am so glad to [...]

Good Humor is 90 years old!

August 17, 2010

Good Humor Ice Cream is 90 years old this year.  It doesn’t take but one bite to understand why they are still doing what they do after all those years.  Their ice cream is delicious! We were able to try Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake and it was worth every calorie.  I love ice cream but [...]
