No Soda Allowed: Healthy Drink Alternatives for Families

Sneaky Pete's Natural Oat Beverage

About four months ago (maybe longer, I can’t remember) my husband asked me to stop buying soda for him. That was one of the best things he’s ever asked me to do, and something I thought he’d never give up. Me personally, I quit soda over a year ago and don’t regret it one bit. [...]

A #CupOfKaffe Just For You – Gevalia Single Serve Cups

Gevalia Single Serve Cups

I haven’t had coffee in over two weeks, TWO WEEKS! That’s the longest I’ve gone since before having kids. Thankfully the diet I’m on ends on Mother’s Day, and I can not wait to have a hot cup of coffee with my Mother’s Day breakfast. Even though I haven’t had coffee in weeks, my husband [...]

Honey Bunches of Oats Greek Honey Crunch Cereal

Breakfast is our family’s favorite meal, without a doubt. But, during the week I just don’t have the time to make a hot breakfast.

Snikiddy Snacks

I try to stick vegetables and fruits in front of my girls as often as I can, but most often than not they would much rather have crackers, chips, and other similar snacks instead. Since we’re on-the-go often, I usually keep a few different kid friendly snacks on hand that we can take with us [...]

I love my children, I really do. But after a long day of feeding, changing, teaching, playing, and cleaning, I very much look forward to their bedtime. Once the kids get locked up in their rooms go to bed, it becomes “me” time. By then the house is as picked up as it’s going to [...]
