IHOP Gift Cards for Dads and Grads! Spring is here, which naturally means that Summer is just on the horizon. It is that time of year when we are starting to think about those special dads in our lives and gifts for Father's Day (June 16th). In addition to fathers, this is a very proud moment for many parents, relatives and friends, as … [Read more...]
Spring is FINALLY here! Technically it was here in March however I am not sure about your neck of the woods but it has been chilly here so far. Not anymore though and it is time to fire up your grills and enjoy all the wonderful fresh fruits and veggies that are in season. I have already been strawberry picking twice for my family. We … [Read more...]
When my family started eating primal I was forced to think outside the box {literally} for Luv's snacks. Thankfully, the switch from peanut butter {legumes} to almond butter went smoothly so I was still able to make one of her favorites. Ingredients: ○● Organic dried cranberries ○● Organic almond butter ○● Organic … [Read more...]
I have had so much fun being a part of the K-Cup Ambassador program, and I am just a bit sad that it is coming to an end (for now at least). I have sampled so many tasty varieties of coffee, cocoa, and wellness blends, and I also received some really cute themed items to go with each. If I had to choose one favorite from this experience, I would … [Read more...]

I'll provide … [Read more...]
#CountryCrockStars Casseroles have always been a big part of my life. Now, this may seem silly to some, but my mom could cook like the dickens and when she made her casseroles for dinner, they were always a big hit. I have fond memories of my mom assembling them in the kitchen (and she usually put me to work too!). I remember she and I even made … [Read more...]
Olive Garden Buy One, Take One! I am smitten with Olive Garden (and always have been!). My family and I enjoy eating there often for several reasons. The amazing bread and the endless soup or salad. If you haven't tried their salad, you just have to. I could pretty much make a meal out of the salad alone! We also love the menu choices, … [Read more...]
Tully's Coffee Hawaiian Blend A taste of the islands? Yes please! Although I cannot travel to Hawaii anytime in the near future, I can enjoy Tully's Coffee Hawaiian Blend, in K-Cup portion packs! These fun, tropical K-Cup portion packs are made from 10% Hawaiian beans and other Arabica beans. I found this coffee to be light and … [Read more...]
Big G Retro Cereals Oh how happy I was to see a few things come back from my childhood. Big G has introduced (*and sent to me) retro cereals with packaging from the 50's, 60's and 80's! I was born in the Sixties, so I am especially excited about these, of course. I have many fond memories of enjoying a bowl of cereal while watching classic … [Read more...]
