This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walmart for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Hunger is a real issue in our community. Probably in most communities. This year, our school district began serving breakfast to ALL students in the classrooms, every morning. My kids think it's awesome. I didn't think … [Read more...]
Can Bounty DuraTowel Paper Towels Hold Up for a Tough Job?
I'm so excited to serve as a spokesperson for the new Bounty DuraTowel paper towels! The basic premise behind these new paper towels is that they're durable enough and strong enough to be used in place of a dishcloth. Because "even after just one day's use, dishcloths can harbor and redeposit millions of germs." Nobody had to convince me … [Read more...]
Simplifying My Bathroom Counter (and Purging OLD Skin Care Products)
I consider myself fairly non-fru-fru. (Fru-fru is a southern term that means "spending lots of time primping in front of a mirror" or . . . whatever else you need it to mean.) Yet somehow, when it was time to put away my new beauty products from Seventh Generation, my eyes were opened. I suddenly saw the overabundance of STUFF on my bathroom … [Read more...]
Since I Only Remember at the LEAST Convenient Time
It's winter. You wouldn't know it from the gorgeous weather last weekend, but we do have random spurts of insanely cold (for Texas) temperatures that make me want to bury myself under a blanket. Unfortunately, I can't (always) do that. And my kids really can't, because they have to go to school. So we bundle up in the coats we haven't … [Read more...]
DFW Family Fun on New Year’s Eve
Those of you in DFW . . . if you're looking for a family friendly way to ring in the New Year, Medieval Times is hosting a Family New Year's Eve Extravaganza! We went about a year ago, and it was truly an experience for my rough-and-tumble, joust-loving kids. (They didn't mind eating with their hands, either!) If you're looking for something … [Read more...]
The REAL Test of My Maytag Oven
I'm going to be honest . . . . I haven't cooked a lot since I got my new Maytag oven. Things have been more-than-a-little busy around here. I use the stove all the time, but now that Christmas is here . . . I'm so excited to have a BIG, HUGE oven for baking! While I'd love to show pictures of fancy-schmancy stuff like leg of lamb or … [Read more...]
I Could TALK about Cleaning All Day Long! (My Trip to the Maytag Labs)
I've always loved reading cleaning tips and tricks. I love discussing the whys and how tos of all things related to home management. Actually doing them? Oh. Well, that isn't nearly as fun. So my trip last month to the Maytag labs in Michigan and the World of Whirlpool in Chicago was truly fascinating. Seriously. I LOVED hearing what … [Read more...]
Checking BIG Stuff Off my List! (Getting my Disney Princess Castle out of Layaway!)
Last week was crazy . . . but the majority of my Christmas shopping is DONE! I know. I can't believe it either. Some of that was from one quick stop where I knocked out a huge chunk of my list, but the other was due to the fact that I'd prepared ahead enough to get my daughter's BIG gift into layaway at Walmart a few weeks ago. With … [Read more...]
My Maytag Fridge
I've already shared that I'm not cooking this week since I'm enjoying a 7 Day cruise with my family! Therefore, my fridge is nowhere near as full as it usually is at this time of year. It was a little strange NOT having a grocery list of the ingredients for pie and green bean casserole. Strange . . . but not bad. I have been thoroughly … [Read more...]
