Food, Crafts and Fun
I am a huge lover of smelly things. Wait, let me rephrase this. I am a huge lover of things that smell wonderful. I love perfume and lotions and body wash and candles and everything else that smells delicious. I’ve passed my love down to my kids, which I absolutely love. When my daughter is […]

One of the best things I’ve done with my kids is taking them camping. I was a little afraid the first time we went. It was just me and my two, very young, children. We had so much fun. Now, 5 years later, it’s the highlight of our summer when we go camping. We load […]
[Continue reading...]What does your purse look like? Is it old and ratty? It is too small to fit everything in it that you want? It is an endless pit of “stuff” that weighs 25 pounds? Being a Mom I am constantly amazed at what I find in my purse. Or constantly asked “Mom, can you hold […]

I just love wonderful smelling, pampering products! Whether it’s lotions, perfume, body wash or chapstick, if it smells good, I love it! There are so many areas that I “scrimp” on when it comes to me. I spend my money on my kids (I’m pretty sure I’m not alone here) but this is the one […]

What is the number one thing about carrying a purse that you hate? For me, that’s an easy question to answer – putting my purse on the floor when I go places. How gross is that! But what do you do with your purse when you go to a restaurant? Or what about when you […]
[Continue reading...]Del Monte Fruit Cup Snacks are a must in my house. My kids love them and I feel good about packing them in their lunches. Del Monte peaches and Mandarin Oranges have always my kids favorite… until now. Del Monte has just introduced two new flavors to their already delicious line up: Del Monte Diced […]

Because, really… isn’t everything better on a stick? Heck yeah! And how cute are these little mummy heads? I just loved them. We gobbled up our Mummy Twinkie Pops (holy smokes, were they good!) And we wanted to do another fun mummy treat this Halloween so we decided on these. Mummy Oreo Suckers Source: How […]

What do you think of Twinkies? I think people either love them or hate them. I love them. I’m not sure why. If I think about it too long I start to question my love of spongy yellow cake and frosting. So I don’t think about it for too long =o) For awhile, years ago, […]
[Continue reading...]Yep, you read that right, Mr. Lid. What the heck is Mr. Lid? Well, let’s start from the beginning. We’re all friends, right? So I can share with you all what my plastic container cupboard looks like, right? No judging, folks! I know, right? I straighten it and organize and do all of that […]

October has been an absolute blur for me. I hate that. My family has been dealing with the loss of my Grandmother so this month’s Secret recipe Club reveal day seemed to just appear out of no where. good thing I had my recipe picked out weeks ago from my assigned blog Life’s Simple Measures. […]

I am totally loving all of the great April Fool’s Day things people have posted the past couple of weeks! I love the pranks but mostly I love the fun food. You didn’t miss our Fakin’ and Eggs I hope! (We’re all about fun food at our house!) So we wanted to pack in two […]
I’m not even sure I can type this post. I’m laughing too hard. ‘Cause seriously… this meal cracked me up. But even more hysterical than these totally adorable weenie men (that I found over on Casa de Luna) is the conversation that I had with my son. Are you ready for this??? My son: […]
I can’t believe it’s the middle of October and I haven’t even posted a Halloween recipe or crafts yet. Ugh. Life is a little overwhelming right now but I’ve decided to kick it into gear and get my Halloween on. So the first Halloween recipe for this year is for Candy Corn Cookies. Aren’t they […]
I’ve seen these around blogland for awhile now and wondered if they would be good or just plain weird. My daughter loves corn dogs. So would she love these??? So I hopped on over to My Kitchen Adventures to see what I needed to do. How simple!!! I used a Corn Bread Muffin mix (the […]
Tag! I’m it! Yeah! I love to play games. I’m a kid at heart. I’ll admit it. So when Tiffanee over at One Crazy Cookie tagged me, I was thrilled and honored. Thrilled because, like I said, I like to play =o) And honored because I love her blog. She posts the best recipes! What […]
I’ve decided that I’m a little bored with cooking. I make the same basic things for dinners and I’m getting tired of it. Dinner should be fun, right? So that’s our new theme for the summer. Fun food! So we bought a couple of fun kid’s cookbooks. This is the first thing we made – […]
In keeping with our fun food theme we made these cute sloppy Joe cars. What do you think? (You didn’t miss our other fun food posts, did you? Octodogs and Shells, Aliens for dinner and our Squiddlers.) These were simple to make and will be a big hit with the kids. You will need: * […]
I’m totally having fun with this whole fun food for dinner Saturday night. I love seeing my kid’s faces when I put their plate on the table. I love hearing “no way. Great job, Mom.” It makes my entire day! And how could I not make this for Halloween?!?! I’m not sure where I saw […]
