Holiday Cooking With Kids

Often times us adults tend to make holiday cooking stressful. However, what we are forgetting is the holidays are about being with family and friends. Things don't have to be perfect, so when it comes time to start that baking let the kids join in on the fun. Family time spent in the kitchen baking will be memories that stick with your child when you're gone. It doesn't matter the age of the child small simple tasks will put a smile on their faces. My daughter likes cracking the eggs, getting the items needed, stirring, and licking the bowl. I read the recipe, show her how to measure out the ingredients, and make sure everything runs smoothly. One thing you want to keep in mind when cooking with the kids, is to have fun. You might end up with a flat cake, or a burnt cookie, but the kids had a ball with you making those treats. Plus, you are not only having fun with your child, you are also teaching them important things they will need in life as they get older. They will also … [Read more...]

Mamavation Monday: How do you eat healthy?

I think the biggest challenge for my family is trying to continue to eat healthy, and pinch pennies! I laughed at my husband this weekend as we were watching a T.V. marathon of "Extreme Couponing." He started going on and on about how much money we could save, and why did I stop couponing to begin with?? I started to point out to him - LOOK at what they are buying. 200 candy bars, 125 boxes of sugar-filled cereals, 400 2 liters of pop. Yes they are saving a ton of money, but on what? These are not meals for your family for the week, it's not a balanced diet. (NOTE: I am NOT against couponing, however, on a limited budget and even more limited time, right now this is NOT my focus). It is not cheap to eat healthy. Produce, fresh meat, is expensive. When I run to the store after work just to pick up stuff for dinner that night I'm looking at spending $40 plus dollars just for one meal! I have realized I need to plan ahead and plan my meals according to sales and what deals I … [Read more...]

NEWS FLASH The Product WAS NOT FREE

I am so sick and tired of people stating products received are free... I have heard this many times, and I am getting sick of it. The other day a PR firm informed me people will do whatever they have to, to get that free item. This came from me informing her I don't like the idea of making three mandatory tasks. When I enter giveaways if there are a lot of hoops I pass. With most that enter already hitting their limits on facebook and twitter making the mandatory involving those make people back away. This evening as I was on facebook I happen to run across this comment a blogger posts.. Really, you are going to complain about the way you have to enter a FREE giveaway! OMG, please relax and say thank you...These events are not easy to get together...many bloggers work day and night to put some of these together for no pay at all...Sorry everyone but a complainer never gets anywhere in life...END RANT Now let me say this...
