Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Waffle Cookies

Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Waffle Cookies

The other day, I decided to trick my girls for breakfast. I told them I was making waffles, like I do usually every other weekend. Except, this time I was wanted to try the Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Waffle Cookies recipe I found on Pinterest. Of course, when you mention chocolate chips in this house and [...]

If I could only eat one cereal for the rest of my life…

hbo

…what would it be? For me that is easy. The one cereal, that I have loved since I was little has always been Honey Bunches of Oats. Either the Honey Roasted or with Almonds. Now-a-days they also have Honey Bunches of Oats Fruit Blends, which sound really good too. Why Honey Bunches of Oats? You [...]

Best baby toy ever!

Fisher Price Jumperoo

When Carleigh was little, I went out and bought one of those door way jumper things. It was okay. She liked jumping in it, but it had no toys and I kept worrying about her hitting one of the door frames. Fast forward a couple of years, and after Kendall was born I learned about [...]

Special Thanks to my friend Andrea over at Tales of an Over Stuffed Princess for sharing her review with us! Weight loss is hard! I don’t think anyone can refute that fact. I have my ups and downs. As a busy mother of 2 school-age kids, eating properly is definitely a challenge. I was recently lucky enough [...]

Losing weight: just say ‘no’

fad-diets

Losing weight can feel like the biggest challenge in our lives at times. I truly envy women who have a fast metabolism, and can eat junk food without putting on a pound. They’re living the dream of women up and down the country. All over the world in fact. Probably the most difficult part of [...]
